Game Point

Robx - it is funny you should mention it, but in the past 48 hours I have been considering the same. I did all this work to draft a settlement agreement with nearly everything she wanted except the fact that it had support payments based upon her working 80% time. I wanted 100% and she wanted 60% (currently she is 40%). I compromised and accepted 80%. Then once I had the agreement in front of her, she balked and said she wanted 60%, and I compromised *again* to avoid having to spend money on lawyers, etc and agreed to 70%.

The other thing I did just to avoid arguments is give her some of my stock options (less than 10%), which by law I don't need to since our agreed upon date of separation pre-dates the stock grant.

The other day she started making noise again about 60% and I said take this or leave it, but now I am considering backing away from this agreement as you suggest. I am going through all the process to properly execute the divorce as if it were contested otherwise in case our negotiations fall through, but I may be the one to throw a wrench into it at this point.

I am going to sit down with my lawyer and talk to him about the certainty of a judge ordering her to work at least 80% time. He had assured me in the past that this would occur.
