Appalling in this time of recession

A case in court on a divorcee requesting maintenance fees from her husband is indeed shocking. The fees are really for her own and her children's extravagant lifestyles, which reflects on how she has brought them up. Mostly vanity-based, the expenses stated are unnecessary and indulgent, showing a materialistic and worldly perception towards living life. Do these expenses make a truly good life? Besides, she gets her own pension and her children get their own wages. She will get a hefty sum from the sale of their houses too. All this money is more than enough for her!

The amounts she spent on these items are exorbitant and she even spent a five-figure sum from their joint account! That is pure abuse of a fund set up to symbolise their joining in matrimony! Her reasons may be insecurity and love for her husband, but the approach used to deal with these issues is wrong.

I am heartened to note that she was thoroughly chastized by the judge and her request was not granted. Apparently though, she had not taken the advice to heart, as she wants to appeal against the judgement passed. What a woman!
