Oh, my goodness, we are way off. Let me clarify my initial question. My friend is divorced. He was ordered to pay 32% of his gross pay for child support for his 18-year-old son, who is living at college. The ex-wife makes almost twice what he makes. Isn't this taken into consideration? I thought that after the first calculation, the two incomes are then balanced, which should lower his payment. This is the same friend, by the way, who gave his wife the house ($275,000 with $200,000 worth of equity), car, furniture, and agreed to pay 50% of the hefty college tuition, leaving him with $800 a month to live on. She talked him into using the same lawyer. (you responsed to me earlier - Dire Straights)
