A pita bread entrepreneur tried to argue that his ex-wife's alimony demands (when added to his own lifestyle costs) would leave him poor, but the NY Post reports that judges ruled Joseph Ayoub must temporarily fork over $30,000 a month: "$20,000 a month for an apartment for the wife, $7,500 a month in child support, $2,500 a month in alimony." While that is a lot, ex Isabelle was asking for "$52,658.80 a month to maintain her kids' lifestyle, including $7,166 a month for food and $4,583 for clothing"!! The judges noted that Ayoub, who started Aladdin Bakers, paid $200,000 in cash for a Lamborghini—plus how he and his ex slept on a $50,000 mattress (the three kiddies' beds were $6,500 each) and had homes in Manhattan and the Hamptons—"By purchasing the Lamborghini, the husband confirmed his free-spending ways." Isabella Ayoub's lawyer said, "This is the lifestyle they led. Sometimes, it's difficult for those of us not in that stratosphere to comprehend that, but they always lived a very generous lifestyle."





she's leaving him. unless that gold-digger can prove abuse, neglect, or infidelity, she shouldn't get squat beyond child support.
he's got the prenup...so you can shut up!
The concept of "Lifestyle Costs" further underlines the obscene gap between rich and poor in our country.
"Joseph Ayoub founded Aladdin Bakers, which started as a small pita-bread bakery in Brooklyn and now does more than $22 million a year in business..."
i don't get your point. he started out small and made it big (aka "the american dream"). that is much different from entitled ivy league dynasty brats. he took the risks of entrepreneurship...don't hate on his success. get off your ass and try it yourself.
What else is he putting in the bread to make pull in that kind of dough?
$20,000/mo in rent??? What kind of shit is that? Also, $250 a day just to feed a kid? And over $4k a month in clothes? The numbers don't make any sense at all. Alimony should be based on need, not on whatever the fuck you want.
dang, that's more than my food budget for the entire year.
You're telling me a fu*ker can make that kind of coin peddling pita bread? Great Caesar's Ghost! The only way they're making that kind of money is if the pita business is a front for some terrorist organization.

Sorry, no sympathy for anybody involved in this sordid incident. All of them are money-grubbing losers.
"He told her there wasn't much money in the pita business, but she would have naan of that."
ba dump.
