These are indeed tough economic times.
We just don't know how Ann-Lorraine Carlsen Nantz is going to survive. Really, how far can you stretch $72,000 a month for the rest of your ex-husband's life (unless you remarry)? That requires some serious budgeting.
Indeed, CBS sportscaster Jim Nantz has to fork over $916K annually in alimony--and plenty of other divorce swag--as part of the Splitsville agreement.
So what sent their 26-year marriage down the drain? Not the fact that Nantz began dating another woman before the divorce was finalized: The judge decided that the pair simply grew apart over the years and that's that.
Wow . . . $72K a month in alimony, $1K a week in child support, and a $70K country club membership of the erstwhile Mrs. Nantz's choosing, among other things. Not too shabby a take for the ex-wife.
Imagine if it hadn't been a no-fault divorce?
