Astounding. Absolutely astounding. Perhaps this is one reason why less people are getting married? It seems that the institution of marriage is increasingly becoming a creature of legalities and pitfalls that has become far removed from its original purpose (whether you agree with the nature of that original purpose or not) and more akin to a monetary investment.

The points above are well made - a settlement is a settlement in my eyes, although im not a divorce lawyer!
