because 22k/month is excessive.

If $22K a month is what a court/judge/the parents agreed to, then obviously that's 1. what the dude can afford and 2. what will keep the child in the same style they would be living in if the parents stayed married. That's how it's been working for years - even when my parents got divorced 35 years ago.

what if this were 1mil/month? as long as he can afford it thats ok right? maybe the rock doesn't fall into that cat but some do. btw, 35 years ago, did your dad have to pay 22k/month? how was life growing up without your personal limo taking you to private school?

I'm sure if he disagreed with the amount he has a legal team to take care of it who might be a little more familiar with his financial situation than posters here

who cares what his financial situation is, the court ordering someone to pay that much for a kid is ridiculous. you may think this is ok, but when you look at how this translates to the avg joe, its sickening. i have a good friend who lost his house and now is paying 65% of his income in child support because the court set the amount when he was making more $. he now gets to pickup his kids on the weekends from the house he inherited from his grandparents, ( wife got it in the divorce ) , and takes them back to his studio apartment which is stockpiled with flavorless generic food. its a fucked up situation that gives me a little dif opinion on these matters. can the rock afford it? im sure. maybe he can afford 100k/month. so what?
edit: if we followed your logic, my ex girlfriend is entitled to 5k/month to support the lifestyle she enjoyed living with me for 2 years. is she now entitled to that lifestyle at my expense because i let her live and enjoy it while she was with me?
