"The estranged wife of United Technologies Chairman George David says she has weekly expenses of $53,000. (…) The 33 year old has no job, no assets and must depend on the largess of her 66-year-old hubby for her well-being. At a hearing this week in Hartford Superior Court, he agreed to pay her $978,000 until their legal teams work out the terms of their divorce, including whether a $43 million post-nup she signed is still valid. (...) So how does Douglas-David, manage to spend $53,000 a week? Mortgage and maintenance fees and rent for the Park Avenue penthouse, the Hamptons retreat and properties in Sweden account for $27,300 a week, according to a financial affidavit she filed with the court. And then there’s travel ($8,000), clothing ($4,500), a personal assistant ($2,209), horse care ($1,570), domestic help ($1,480), entertainment and restaurants ($1,500), health and skin care ($1,000), dry cleaning ($650), flowers ($600) and a trainer ($250). And it must be noted that Douglas-David is cutting back."
