Years ago I remember a guy I used to work with who suddenly gave his notice and quit his job. When I asked why, he told me that he figured he was getting the raw end of the deal on his divorce settlement, and so as not to have a significant portion of his income go to his ex-wife, he just quit his job. The way he figured it, she couldn't get what he didn't have.
A little drastic, I thought, but to each their own. For a while afterwards I wondered about my old co-worker and how that decision to quit a good job worked out for him. My guess is that, since it was a bit of a knee-jerk decision in the first place, it probably didn't end quite as he expected.
My brother shared a link with me about another divorce settlement in which the man's wife was awarded half of everything he had as a part of their divorce settlement. I imagine that such a settlement is probably more or less normal and as such should likely not really be a surprise. What was surprising is how literally he fulfilled the divorce settlement.
He created the following video of himself literally cutting their belongings in half. Apparently he then sent his ex-wife half of the belongings while selling his half on eBay.
While ingenious, and absolutely hilarious according to my twisted sense of humour, one has to wonder if his ex-wife was just as amused. Probably not.
