Just found out about this from my wife cause she heard all the details at lunch with the mom group. The dudes wife finally divorced him. He was an employee at Nvidia and cashed out all his stocks to start a business selling beef jerky dip chew cans, but the jerky had nicotine. The idea was zyn with protein for people who lift weights and do sports etc.

They all tried it and said it was disgusting and like 50% of people who ate it threw up. They couldn't find a buyer and also the company he outsourced it to ripped off his idea and undercut him for way less anyway. Spent millions on this shit and has a few storage lockers full of cans of it. He still brings it around to gas stations trying to get owners to sell it.

The wife divorced him because of this or was the marriage already going downhill?

Can any matrimonial bros advise how divorce works in this scenario where the couple previously had a modest fortune to split up with steady income but now all that's left is some pallets of poison jerky with no steady income (let's assume wife doesn't/didn't work)? Can judge look at earnings "potential" to order a ridiculous alimony/child support payment? Do they just split the jerky "business" and inventory 50/50 and she gets child support and the house?

Relevant to my interests--thinking of retiring from biglaw in my early 40s and do nothing.

I'm an expert in this.

The first thing that will happen is that the judge will lock her in a closet and tell her she can't come out to get the kids until she finishes her half of the dip. The next thing that will happen is that the ex husband and judge will high-five and play golf while she pukes her guts out in the closet

About as dumb as anything I've ever heard for so many reasons. For one, the guy had already Made It just by working at NVIDIA. But moreso that he bought so much inventory before he had a product the market wanted at all.
