I saw an ad for this on the tube last night. They were showing charts and graphs about how fucked you'll be when you get frivorced. This is about as mainstream the red pill has ever been. Another leech at play in the family/divorce racket. At least they're there to help dudes. If the fact that this exists isn't proof that shit is broken, then I don't know what is.

Too bad they can only replace money and not your manhood or children. The sad part is that if the business gets big enough then it'll start lobbying to continue bad marital legislation and promote feminism.

What a great idea! That way, when they fleece you for child support / alimony, they will consider your additional source of income and increase the payments accordingly.

That this website is serious (at least it looks like) is a testament to the insanity of our current situation. It's like putting out the fire with gasoline.

I always thought this was a good idea.

You can also get insured against the risk of getting cancer as well. Which I thought was interesting.

My first thought was "we should scam it."

Get a girl, divorce, split the cash.

Still, great idea. Glad the idea is going mainstream.

That sounds like long-term care insurance. Buying insurance against something highly probable (like spending your life savings getting beaten up by nurses in the last five years of your life) involves obscenely high premiums.

I gotta imagine there is some pretty serious information requirements. I bet they will reject a lot of applications.

This is exactly right---once the divorce lawyers figure out you have divorce insurance they will ask that this be regarded as additional "income" to be "imputed" to you...and will increase your payments in accordance with this.

Not sure what the upside is here, really.

The easy solution is to make your spouse the beneficiary. That way if you get divorced she gets the extra income directly from the insurance company and you can claim she makes more than you and get alimony from her.

^^^^ Genius. Though I dont think their lawyers would go for that.

I have no experience with being divorced (thank gods), but regarding what Ensam said, are you sure that you as an ex-husband could force a woman to pay alimony, no matter how much more money she has? There are some hamsterrific articles floating around claiming that women pay alimony too, but I believe those are just exceptions. Mostly because of two factors:

1) if women outearn men in 40% of marriages as claimed, but also a vast majority of alimony dollars is from men to women, then there must be a massive amount of discrimination going on. The split should logically end up being around 60/40, and I'm sure we would have all heard about it by now.
2) women have a stronger tendency to bitch and complain about their problems than men. A very small number of women paying alimony (like 2%) could drum up an illusion that there are 30 time more of them than they are and it's a "serious problem", like it has been done with rape and domestic abuse

For those reasons, that seems like an incredibly risky tactic to me. When the game is rigged, you just can't come out on top.
