How Much do You Need to Live?
We’ve all seen the headlines of celebrities, or more often people that lucked into marrying a celebrity, demanding more money. How can one be expected to live on less than a million a year?
One of the big celebrity story making waves is the divorce between Countess Marie Douglas-David and former United Technologies CEO George David. In 2005, the couple signed a prenuptial agreement saying that gave Douglas-David $38 million in cahs, stock and a Park Avenue apartment. Douglas-David is asking the judge to throw out the order because she says she was coerced into it.
The Swedish countess is says she cannot afford to live on that amount but needs $100 million. Now, before you start to pick your jaw back up off the ground, the countess also says that she needs $130,000 a month in alimony. David is estimated to be worth $329 million.
You have to begin to wonder if these outrageous demands are beginning to make alimony payments look like a joke, but when you have that much money to being with, is Douglas-David’s request reasonable?
