TIGER WOODS & ELIN NORDEGREN: WHO GETS WHAT, AND WHY WE CARE? By Rita Watson
BOSTON – In the news we are still seeing completely speculative reports based on leaks regarding who gets what. But the more important question is this — why do we care? First: who gets what? As I stated yesterday, until court papers are filed we simply do not know the truth. Despite the speculation about the Florida homes, some of us are wondering about the other homes in 4 states. Divorce is a tricky business and anything can happen in the final deal. Keep in mind that with Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren, there is a prenuptial agreement as well.
Here is what Shuttervoice reported this morning.
Elin Nordegren is getting
• The main family home in Windmere, Florida
• Another home located nearby
• An apartment in Stockholm, Sweden
• A secluded island in Sweden which includes a $2.2 million estate which is currently being renovated
Re the money Tiger will have to pay out $50 Million US Dollars – $100 Million US Dollars or more Tiger Woods Divorce Who Will Get What

Why do we care?
Because divorce has become so much a part of our culture, and sadly so, the public seems to have an insatiable desire to know the details of celebrity divorce. In many ways it is a stage view of what takes place in the lives those living on Main Street. With all of the charged feelings that occur with division of property, reading about the trials and tribulations of others often falls into the ‘misery loves company’ category. But unfortunately people also fall into the “take what you can get” mode. A better method is to try to resolve one’s differences or at least come to the table with a spirit of cooperation, particularly when children are involved.
