Β It’s one of the largest divorce settlement in U.S. history, but it ain’t over yet. Β After being awarded nearly one billion dollars in the divorce, the former wife on an oil billionaire says it’s not enough. Β She’s going for a larger share of the marital assets. Β But for one billion dollars, would you be willing to walk away?

In part, it’s a matter of perspective. Β A billion is a lot to most of us, but Sue Ann and Harold Hamm aren’t most of us. He is one of America’s oil tycoons. Β She was his wife for 25 years, and a lawyer for his company. Β Being awarded nearly a billion dollars in cash and assets doesn’t come close to the $14 billion he’s worth, so she’s appealing.

But a billion dollars could be a lot of temptation for the rest of us. Β Heck, a couple of hundred could be temptation for some of us.

Our Man on the Edge, Robert Wilder, can’t put a price on love, but could you?
