K-Daddy Poised to Get $$$ from Popwreck

K-Fed will almost certainly be heading to court soon, asking the custody judge to hike the amount of child support he gets from the Britster.
Britney, K-Fed
Britney currently ponies up $15,000 a month in child support. But that amount was calculated based on a 50/50 custody arrangement. K-Daddy now has primary custody, while she has visitation and one overnight a week.

Here's why we're sure Mark Vincent Kaplan, K-Fed's lawyer, will make the pitch to the judge: First of all, although 15K sounds like a lot, it's actually less than the standard award given Brit's income (more than $700,000 a month).

Obviously, since K-Fed now has primary custody, his expenses have increased. Sources say nannies and security (security is actually a court-ordered requirement) are really expensive. Being a parent is a bitch!

Finally, two weeks ago, K-Fed stopped getting spousal support -- $20,000 a month. Under the prenup, spousal support went away on November 15. So daddy may need the jack. It's only a matter of time -- but he's going back in.

91. It's amazing how many of you are unfamiliar with the law. Saying that when you got divorced you only got XX amount in support, or your dad never paid child support and you turned out fine, does not apply in this case. That was YOUR situation, not the same. You were not married to a rich popstar, one who's incapable of taking care of herself let alone two small children. That is why the court took the kids away from her, and she is only allowed SUPERVISED visits. She can't even be trusted alone with her children.

The law is designed to protect the children, to afford them the same lifestyle they would have enjoyed had their parents not gotten divorced and had their mom actually been a decent parent and not lost custody. It is based on a percentage of income, not a flat amount. It's not fair to the children that they should have to live in a lower income bracket because their father doesn't make much money, while their wealthy, irresponsible mother lives it up in mansions and 5 star hotels.

It doesn't matter that you were able to raise your children on only XX amount of support, that is not the point. Had you been married to a wealthy person your amount of support would have been much higher. My friend only receives $200 per month in child support...would it be fair for Britney to spend that in child support? No! She spends $100k per month on entertainment, she should have no problem spending money on her children. That is who the money is for...Sean and Jayden, not Kevin. Regardless of what you think of him, he is doing exactly what the law allows for his children. If mommy gets to live in a mansion, then so should Sean and Jayden.

When your wealthy you spend more on everything. I work in real estate with wealthy clients and sometimes it makes my stomach turn to see how much they spend on a car or a pair of shoes. But that's their lifestyle and it's not the same as mine. Therefore if Britney is making $700k per month (for what, driving around and going to Starbucks?) she should be shelling out more in child support. Maybe if she had actually given a damn about her children she wouldn't be in this situation.

92. What is really funny about alof of these comments, is that he has other kids with shar and even though she didnt like what he did, i can not recall a SINGLE time she has EVER mentioned him being a bad father. Not that i like the guy, but hey at least he is bettre then brit. Although i agree, he should get a job, more then guest staring on tv show, but hey if he wants to be a stay at home dad whats wrong with that?

94. Linda, you really think Spears is smart enough to have stocks & bonds??? LOL. I bet she doesn't invest a dime. I think, I am not sure, that she gets X amount per every CD sold, every song by her played on radio, etc. That is where the $$ is coming from.....
I seriously doubt superdad, FedEx is using all that child support to invest for the kids either, such as a college fund.... he blows it, parties, lives the high life...... rents a place 4 times larger than he needs, etc.

97. Kelli, I just try to do my best, that's all you can ask of yourself. I think most of us know what is right & wrong, choosing to do so is the hard part for many.

To #84 whatajoke

You do have an excellent point. K-Fed really COULD make a bundle of money if he wrote a book. People would be throwing cash at him like crazy. Not just for the rights to the book, but everyone would want to purchase it.

Don't think he hasn't been offered LOTS of money for a book like that. I'd feel safe in saying that he probably has and evidently turned it down.

If he's going for the easy money, there it is. THE BOOK. Followed by THE MOVIE.

It is food for thought.....

101. Yes, K-Fed is a whore master...the whore he's with now, is about as ugly as they can get !! She really got whomped with the ugly stick !! And yes, it's always been about money to the K-Fed !! With that $20,000. not coming in monthly anymore, most likely he'll have to give up that monsterous home he's living in, unless he takes quick action and gets his child support upped a whole lot more, he's going to be kissing his digs good-bye !! And his whore won't be babysitting the brats...she's obviously the last person anyone would want around their kids...Something should be done about that !! He has no class, no talent, poor taste in women, a free-loader, gold-dinging whore-master.....The kids need to be taken out of that environment !!!!

103. As a Mom of 4. I don't live in the "biggest houses" around me. Don't spend a dime on my entertainment. Sacrificed what could of been my so called "career" and only work part time around my kids schedule. My mini-van has 100,000 miles on it, but its paid for so I'll keep driving it. Some call it unsuccessful, I call it being here for my kids. Go figure. Brit, be a mom or sign your rights over!
