[quote=Anonymous]As a divorce lawyer, if I can offer you advice, it is to get something down on paper acknowledging your contributions to your husband's career and your entitlement to half of his earnings. Even just a one-pager, signed by both of you, that states that (1) the consideration is maintaining a flexible job and passing up promotions in order to facilitate your family life and enable your husband to devote himself fully to his career and meet his job requirements, and (2) you are entitled to half of his earnings, pension, any other income for 15-20 years after a divorce. You are the exact kind of woman ends up living in poverty in old age after a divorce. Current divorce laws will not compensate you for the loss and earnings and retirement savings and career development, so you are a sitting duck if your husband ever leaves.[/quote]
