Hmmmm, I never went after big money with H. I waived spousal and agreed to the state minimum for child support. His family owns three homes, two of which (including the house we were living in) are ocean view properties in CA - I'll let you do the math. I did not go after the real estate.
The only thing I did ask for was to have the child support as a lump sum, up front. It wasn't for the sake of greed, though. It was for the sake of not having to be tied to him for money until kidlet was 18, and because I knew if I invested the lump sum properly, the interest would cover any monthly needs and at age 18, the intact lump sum would pay for college.
H wouldn't agree to that, and probably thought it WAS about greed.
Oh well.
As long as he doesn't divorce me, H has made his last child support payment.
I guess I don't entirely fit the WAW mold, but that's ok - it wasn't a very nice place to be when I was in it.

The trouble with having an open mind is that people put things in it.
