 So last week I received a call from my ex-husband and he said he wanted to make me an author that he thought was going to make me happy. And what he wanted to do was to pay me out of the annuity and give me $100,000 now and then to stop the spousal support. He thinks I'm in a new relationship where the new man in my life is, quote, taking care of me financially, which is far from the truth. My new friend rents a room from me in my home and the money he gives me goes towards monthly expenses and annual expenses of the home.
