Quote Quoting Mr. Knowitall
View Post
You apparently missed the OP's question about making a claim against his wife's "higher earning potential" due to the education she received during the marriage, which I quoted right before I provided the excerpt from Berger. The summary of the law, as provided by Berger and as quoted above, describes the extent to which you can make a claim against a spouse's advanced degree within the context of divorce. Yes, you can also read the cases cited in Berger through the links I provided if you want more detail. I doubt that his wife's "advanced training", whatever it is, would qualify as the type of degree for which you could make an equitable claim under Berger and the cases it cites, but we don't have the details and that is the governing law.
No, I didn't miss that but in this instance, the OP is starting out making 4 times a year what his wife makes, and apparently also saved a substantial amount of money during their extremely brief marriage. It do think that the facts of this case are critical and there is simply too much missing.

He uses the term "higher training" for both of them instead of spelling out what that education or training is. He references earning 4 times what she does rather than giving actual figures. He never tells how much the savings are. He doesn't mention what either of their career paths are...its all very vague.
