Here's the thing - while $10,000/month is definitely enough to raise a child(We have two and we make a LOT less than this but we manage) the kid was lucky enough to be fathered by someone who makes a shit ton of money. There's no reason she shouldn't be able to enjoy the same luxuries that he does. You can't really judge this case by the same standards as a normal child support case because of the amount of money that the guy makes.

Poor kid, with a name like that. Supernintendo would probably be less traumatic.

Ok I am sick and tired of people cashing in on each other. Love is not a game you play to exploit people. What does she need 10K for? She doesn't. This is BS. She should have the lifestyle she has earned, nothing more. As for their child. I am sure Queen (what an unbelievably stupid name for a child) isn't going without anything. I bet private school have already been paid for her entire life going forward. She would also spend time with her dad, who I doubt is going to let her walk around in rags. Maybe, or he may only give the money he does because he's made to do it and nothing more. If you're gonna live an opulent lifestyle, and let your kid have less, then you suck as a father.

Then the father should ha e full custody then. Since this is about the child, and chalmers is constantly seen with his daughter, and she never looks like Annie

The reason there's anger on the side of the father is it's well known that she is seen and with him alot. I'm suuurrrreeee if the kid wants or needs something while he has the child he doesn't go to the mother, "hey I need money so the kid can eat". No he pays for it...I can almost guarantee he's given much more than the 2.4K a month towards this child already.
This is just reeking alot like he's paying for the mother's lifestyle...not the kids, and that is not right at all.

Since this is about the child, and chalmers is constantly seen with his daughter, and she never looks like Annie I don't know whether he spends a lot of time with her or not, but of course she was never dressed in rags. $24K/yr DOES go a long way if her mother also works. I do have an issue with the vitriol that some people seem to have over the support payments being as high as they are. Quite honestly, if the same formula was used to calculate the child support payments that ordinary people have to pay were used in this case the payments would actually be even higher than they are now.

You need 120,000 a year to raise a kid? Way more than that. Raising a kid isn't cheap, you know....with food, clothing, diapers, bottles, beds, cleaning stuff, high chairs, toys, child proof stuff, medicine if your kid isn't healthy, do I really need to expand on this. I think there is sarcasm in here, but I'm not catching it. If you can't make ends meet with anything less than 6 full-time Wal-Mart salaries dedicated only to your kid, you need a budget meeting.

Man I wish I was a decent looking chick so I could get knocked up by an athlete and never have to work a day in my life for a six figure pay day. Sucks for Mario Chalmers having to pay to support the lifestyle of a hookup gone bad.

The guy got it good. 10,000 a month is only 2.5 % of his monthly salary. In 18 years she'll cost a total of 2,160,000 million dollars. Dude is guaranteed to make 12 million in three years. How many vacations does a NBA player take anyways? Like how long is the off season and when does training camp begin? Hell when those NBA players start training to get in training camp shape?

10k is a bit extreme. I've always thought that they need a tracking method for the spending of the child support. I've seen too many child support payments go to video games for husbands and new phones for the mother, while the child is wearing broken down shoes with old ratty clothes.

Way more than that. Raising a kid isn't cheap, you know....with food, clothing, diapers, bottles, beds, cleaning stuff, high chairs, toys, child proof stuff, medicine if your kid isn't healthy, do I really need to expand on this. Yea you do, if you can't raise a child with a dedicated 2.6k going toward her a month, you shouldn't have custody. 10k a month is ridiculous. It would be cheaper for him to have custody and hire a full time nanny Then why doesn't he? Man I wish I was a decent looking chick so I could get knocked up by an athlete and never have to work a day in my life for a six figure pay day. Sucks for Mario Chalmers having to pay to support the lifestyle of a hookup gone bad. He gets all the fun of a daughter with none of the work, and all he has to do is contribute a miniscule fraction of his salary to her. Plus, he got to have sex without all the boring and buzzkilling responsibility of a condom! It's a bargain, really. I'll save my sympathy for people with real problems.

I feel this might be the elephant in the room, but I this thread, in some ways is, "f***in' women, amirite fellas?" Or at least attempting to be, but people are like, that seems very fair.

It's a bargain, really. I'll save my sympathy for people with real problems. Precisely! If my wife and I were to get divorced I would owe (based on the in.gov calculator) just under $1000 a month in child support, or a little under 10% of what he owes. I do not make 10% of what he makes or even close to that, so anyone that wants to complain about him paying that much needs to just think about what they are really complaining about. He is really getting a bargain.
