I'm currently battling exP for some money for my DS (2 and a half).
The difficulty is that exP does not have any income from a job.
He basically has invested in property and buys houses to do up and sell. He has told me he cannot afford to contribute anything because he has no income but I know he has about £650,000 in various banks with no loans or mortgages.
He says he has to buy a house and pay for his living expenses out of this money.
I am on income support and my total income a year is £6,900. Obviously Im finding it very difficult to manage and have been supplementing with savings but these are now almost gone, hence my renewed attempt to get help from exP.
So... should he pay anything? If so, how much per week/month do you think is acceptable?
Sorry for the long post.
