CHA-CHING! When your husband goes astray it's a big payday!

==========================

Details of Elin Woods' newly rewritten prenup emerge

By Jay Busbee

Elin and Tiger Woods had a prenuptial agreement, as expected. The couple is undergoing marital counseling, as you'd also expect. And now The Daily Beast is reporting that Elin Woods is renegotiating that prenup to get an immediate $5 million payout from her husband and as much as $55 million more to stay with him for two more years.

The initial prenup was worth $20 million after 10 years of marriage. However, the Chicago Sun-Times' Bill Zwecker has reported that Elin Woods will receive an immediate payment "into an account she alone controls," and that the 10-year timeframe -- which began when they married in 2004 -- has been shortened and the value increased "substantially."

The Daily Beast quotes "a lawyer familiar with the couple's negotiations" in reporting that the term of the prenup has been shortened to seven years, and that a series of staggered payments could increase the total value to $75 million.

But apparently there's also a behavioral component to all this: Elin Woods must "be a dutiful wife in showing up with him at social events and in public as if they were still the perfect couple, and sign a nondisclosure form that will prevent her from ever telling her story."

It's important to note that to date, there's no concrete evidence that Elin Woods has ever been anything but the perfectly dutiful golf wife. I'm sure the Woodses would like nothing more than to portray domestic calm to the world, and Elin Woods now apparently has several million more reasons to do just that.

Uh huh. So if he's paying off his wife you can bet he's also going to be paying his mistresses some dough as well.

He's no different than any of us..... "once you make your bed then you have to lie in it". There is one major difference for him though is that everyone in the world gets to watch him "lie in his bed".
Hope everything works out for him, his wife and family.

I do feel bad for her. SHe was certainly genuinely upset. No one behaves as she did otherwise.

But after reading that piece its hard to believe that she's never been in it for the money at all. :rolleyes:

I agree. I don't think Mr. Woods behavior is excusable in the least and from the looks of it this wasn't a one time fling, but perhaps 3 ongoing affairs for a number of years.

Multitasking.

Surprising that this came to a head after the accident: supposedly the tabloids, et al, had this info for a long while... :headscratch:

I believe you're right...moreover, although I can't confirm this to a certainty, but they said Tiger's "transgressions" were widely known by other members on the PGA tour.

What a putz.

Azuma Kazuma is going to have to create a new unparelleld Ja-pan because now they are saying there is a FOURTH woman he cheated with...dayem this kid has only been married for about 5 years and he's allegedly cheated with 4 women...why'd he even get married? Pointless.
