Brodeur to Pay Nasty Alimony
Posted by Mother Pucker on March 19th, 2009Just as we were all singing the praises of the winning-est goaltender of all time, news is just in today that Martin Brodeur has been ordered to pay alimony to his ex-wife Melanie DuBois.
How much? How does $500,000 a year until 2020 sound? Are you kidding me?!?!?!
That’s $5.5 million if he has to pay up for this year… Marty said that he planned on retiring in 2012 and requested that he only have to pay till then, but the judge insisted on the extra eight years.
So now what does this mean? Will Marty have to slug it out for one more year just to pay off his ex? Or will he be able to dig deep into the bank to pay for that many years after retirement? Either way, $500,000 a year sucks. I feel for you Marty!
In his career, Marty has made 55-60 million dollars so far. It should be quite easy for him to just cut a check and make her go away.
