What I don't understand is if that spouses are legally entitled to half of everything earned during the marriage, then why will she also be getting half of all his future earnings and pay days? That doesn't make sense

That doesn't make senseIt's based on the housewife mentality that they're investing themselves in their spouse's future instead of their own. Theoretically, instead of building their own career, they are raising kids and supporting the career of the spouse. Since they put into it, they eat off it. Though it make less sense when you apply it to multi-millionaires who marry nobodies.
Its called a pre-nup, dipshits. Get one.

That money would keep my own family, and all of my relatives on both sides happy for the rest of their lives too.I understand from a working class family, that the wife sacrifices a career, or further education by raising kids whilst the husband works, or pursues the career, but we're usually talking about basic upkeep of rent, child maintenance and suitable living allowances. $400 mil, and many millions there on out is just a joke
