    The article, "The Alimony Buy-Out: Is It Right For Your Client?" discusses the benefits and pitfalls of this type of alimony arrangement. The authors state, "As advisors, we are faced with a dilemma. We need to effectively manage client expectations by explaining every detail. At the same time, we need to make them understand that things can and will happen that are outside of everyone's control, especially ours." To illustrate their points, they use humorous made up cases studies to portray an issue and then supply a recommended solution.
