A woman who had been a housewife for thirty years was publicly told by her retired police-officer husband that they would go 50/50. She announced she would leave with nothing. The whole family thought she had only a shabby $800-a-month rental left, not knowing she was Manhattan’s real estate queen. Her unfilial son paid $500 a month to hire her as a cleaner; she turned around and sold his house, leaving the whole family homeless. Her gambling-addict brother-in-law was swindled out of everything by his girlfriend, her mother-in-law was beaten badly on the street by loan sharks, and her ex-husband had a heart attack... She only tossed out one line: “Back then, it was you who demanded 50/50!”
