It is a decision she surely regrets.
For Mel Gibxon's ex Oksana Grigorieva has filed for bankruptcy less than four years after knocking back a $15m child custody settlement offer from the Braveheart star.
The hard-up Russian pianist made the move due to prohibitive legal debts said to be in the range of $250,000.
In legal documents seen by TMZ Oksana is claiming she is so broke she has just $10 in cash to her name.
The musician, who is mother to Mel's four-year-old daughter Lucia, has $48,000 in assets and $438,000 in debts.
She is said to spend $90 a month on Gofer Patrol, which is $10 more than she spends on home security.
The singer is also claiming that in the past six months she only received $200 in royalties, and claims artwork she painted is worth $500.
Her biggest problem is her legal bills, for she owes five lawyers a mammoth $250,000.
During her bitter custody battle with the Mad Max actor she sacked more than 40 lawyers.
At the end of it all the Oscar-winning star was ordered to pay just $750,000 to Grigorieva, which he is stumping up in installments.
The 2011 decision came a year after she turned down a rumoured $15m offer of settlement.
According to the documents she is receiving $20,000 a month in child support for Lucia, while her former flame Timothy Dalton pays her $2,500 a month for their son Alexander.
Their settlement was the end to a lengthy feud, which made headlines across the world when the she accused Gibson of attacking her.
