Thank goodness you don't have to pay 7 million dollars per month in alimony and support or 995 million total. 

I wonder if Harold will pay this in pennies, that would be great. I can't believe this is far short of what her lawyer wanted. What in the hell is she going to do with 7.0 million dolalrs per month?

Continental Resources (CLR.N) Chief Executive Officer Harold Hamm has been ordered to pay nearly $1 billion to his ex-wife in one of the largest-ever U.S. divorce judgments, according to a court filing on Monday.

In an 80-page ruling following a more than nine-week divorce trial that ended last month, Oklahoma Special Judge Howard Haralson ruled that oil magnate Hamm should pay his ex-wife a total of $995.5 million.

Although the award could make Sue Ann Hamm, 58, one of the 100 wealthiest women in the United States, according to Forbes' rankings, it is far smaller than the amount her lawyers sought and does not require Harold Hamm to sell shares of Continental. Jedd Clampett not, but oil mogul yes.
