The unnamed 70-year-old from Buenos Aires divorced in 2011.

On 6/11/19 at 8:12 AM EDTIn a landmark ruling, a woman in Argentina has been awarded a payout from her husband for the housework and child-rearing she did during their three-decade marriage.

The couple separated in 2009 and divorced in 2011. The court ruling stated the woman had experienced financial difficulties while the husband"lived a good life." She also considered how her husband had left her when she was 60, at retirement age and too old to enter the job market. "In most families, women still mainly assume the burden of domestic chores and the care of children, even when they work outside the home," the ruling added.

Is that it? I’ll buy me three. 🤑🤓🤦‍♂️

that is horridly underpaid

The Patriarchy

In usa a house wife is worth like 130k a year

Only that he should be in for like 3 million

I guess the roof over her head, the food on her table and the clothes on her back were just freebie perks hey?

Well does she have to pay him for 30 years of RENT?

Staying in home it is a Job, when my in-laws were sick, my wife went to visit for a few days and left me with my kids. It's not easy. And I agree that my ability to grow professionally, is due to my wife's support, I wouldn't have the same success with out her

Should've be more!!! At least 15k per year!

This is absurd. All the “ahuhu it’s not enough” people don’t think about him paying for her to live, eat, shop, etc.

Chump change.

That’s considered a landmark ruling? You can’t even hire full time housekeeper/nanny for that amount per year.

$6k/year? That’s below poverty wages

That’s less than $6k a year! SlaveLabor

Did she live in the same house with him? There is no way this is fair this is wrong

What She’s didn’t for love

Basically, $500 a month. Wow. Cheap labor and free sex.

Menos de 400 dolares al mes.... 😥 Es una pena.

How silly I think it's time to start mens right movement, men are absurd now by women and the complicit system taking thier wealth children etc.

prenup

Your daily reminder that marriage in 2019 is just a way for women to use the government to steal money from men.

She still looks young

She made a pledge

danisaacs has nothing to fear - not only would I never divorce him, I don’t do housework. You’re welcome, sweetie!

$6,000 a year is actually quite the bargain for him.

Seems fair

Yay.

Watching TV and sleeping all day only to get up and try to get as much done in the last 45 min before he gets home isn't worth that. He should send her a bill for $178 for all of the TV she watched. Cable isn't cheap.

God Rewinds Time To Watch Man Fall Off Trampoline AgainTHE HEAVENS—Saying He just had to see the guy faceplant one more time, the Lord our God, Almighty Creator of the Universe, reportedly rewound time Monday to watch an Indiana man fall off a trampoline again. “Look, look, look—you can see right when his foot goes through the hole between the springs and his face is just like ‘Oh shit,’” said God, who reportedly reversed the temporal flow of all existence six times in a row to watch the man “just completely eat it,” at one point pausing time entirely to laugh at the 25-year-old suspended upside down in the air after he had bounced off the trampoline’s metal frame and just a split second before his face slammed into the ground. “That sound he lets out afterwards is amazing—it’s not even a scream; it’s like a squeal. Oh man, that had to hurt like a motherfucker. Fucking idiot.” At press time, the Lord had reportedly rewound time once again and then restarted it in slow motion, shouting for a few nearby angels to come over and “check this shit out.” when you're the master of all space, time, and dimension, it's the little things Classic god I would if I could.

Oh the dangers of an anti-market kleptocracy. Why is it that there doesn’t seem to be one Trump supporter who can correctly name socialist countries?
