I read that. That still makes sense from this thread's prespective. If a woman that is a homemaker or has a lesser income than her husband gets a divorce of course she is going to have less available money.
That would happen even if she got a monstrous settlement from a billionaire. She would have less income earning power than he did.

According to Long Island University's National Center for Women & Retirement Research, the average woman sees a 45% drop in her standard of living after divorce, while the average man improves his standard of living by 15%.
