I just sold the handbags I once kept for financial security

Cash over $10,000 could be reported by your bank, just FYI.

Is this the divorce troll again?

Yes I know. But I just sold personal assets at an obvious loss over time. That’s fine.

Yeah I know this. But I sold everything at a loss, not a profit.

It’s just rare that you can get that much cash today on the spot.

I didn’t get a certified check to go to the car dealer because I looked at the website I was considering and realized prices are not what I thought they were. Better for my ex to get a used car of some kind and maybe I can get my lil convertible back. It’s going to be 8 yrs old soon but drives.

I just feel better because I now have 70K more than I did yesterday. It’s in the bank under my name only. That’s it, that’s the whole story.

I just can't with OP's vulgar Nouveau Riche Divorcee persona.

The fat envelopes of cash. The glee. The couture adoration. The inability to understand inflation and the lack of basic financial literacy.

Sorry, OP, I don't care whether you're a troll or a real person, but the main character here does not attract my sympathy. But if you make it unpleasant enough, you might have material for an Anti-Heroine that people love to hate, "loosely based on your life". Stick it to the billionnaire husband. In the current social context, it might get published.

I actually get what you’re saying, but, suppose I am telling the truth

If you’re nouveau riche that’s terrible and gauche and tacky

But, also, if you’re old money you’re a nepo baby who never accomplished anything on your own

If you got money through divorce or marriage to your wealthy spouse you’re a parasite

How exactly is the approved “right”way to possess any accumulated wealth?

If you’re accumulating a massive amount of wealth it’s definitely on the backs of others, that’s just how it works.

Partners associates support staff, and all the other iterations that pyramid comes in, they are all generating income upwards.

Hope that $66k check doesn't bounce...

How does OP not have a car or anything at all? Are they an adult?

Hey, thank you

I had to take an uber to the bank, and home, because I don’t have a car right now

but, yes it all cleared between yesterday and today

Thanks for being so concerned about me, you are sweet and I appreciate that

I also have 9 birkin bags left

It sounds like you need a better lawyer if you have to sell your designer accessories to be able to buy a car. It sounds like your lifestyle during the marriage was somewhat extravagant. Did you sign a prenup?

I still have 1 car in my name. We had 3 cars 2 months ago. Just bad luck.

But my young 20s kid needs to get to school and work 6 days a week

I made her take uber tonight to a rodeo (she does horses) … she’s got a curfew now

Ex is working on getting cars for the 2 adult 20s kids, that’s his problem. If he’s spending 40K going on vacations with his girlfriend then he can figure this out.

He doesn’t want to buy a car for me but now I only need a car sometimes. Not every day anymore.

No prenup no assets when we got married decades ago.

We live in an equitable distribution state.

I worked while putting him through grad school and then double grad school.

Our state does not recognize legal separation, we’re still legally married.

I didn’t cheat on him, I raised all the kids myself, he chose to move a coworker into his apartment which is a country club penthouse.

He can go fish. He won’t ever divorce me because I didn’t do anything wrong and our adult kids have no memory of his ever having lived in the same house

I am just thinking of not buying a car because I don’t get out anymore and if it’s seeming like I only need $30 at a time to get to my medical appointments, maybe $60 round trip that feels like … ok ???????????

I have some 2x cancer and I think they are hoping I die.

Maybe I will, maybe I won’t. But I might be ordering sushi tonight because sometimes I just want to

I am torn between sushi and Chinese food

This is such a weird thread. You lived an extremely extravagant life if you just sold 10 Birking bags but still have 9 left and you had a house and penthouse this whole time. Yet you write about money in such a way that baffles me. It’s almost as if you never had a financial advisor in the decades that you were married. This would be odd if you really accumulated that much money. The situation with your kids is odd too. You only care if younger 20 Ha’s a car but not the older 2? Are they all your kids?

Sorry for typos. Birkin bags on first line and young 20 has a car…. Weird autocorrect
