[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half his retirement fund, half the joint account, plus alimony since you're not working and child support for your child. Did he not think he was going to split retirement with you when you got married? Without a pre-nup, you should assume he intended for you to have half of any money he came in with. [/quote] OP here - a few more details: 1. We did have a prenup that stated we would each take out what we brought in, and divide whatever we earned during the marriage. It expired after 5 years. 2. I am initiating the divorce, due to his behavior, but he has never been unfaithful or dishonest, not that it necessarily matters. 3. I really do not want to leave him in the lurch, but maybe that's my guilt talking. [/quote] How much were in the accounts when you married?[/quote] DP It doesn’t matter because of compounding interest. She entitled to half of everything including his retirement. The prenump won’t count. Don’t worry about leaving him in a lurch - he’s not worried about you not getting a fair deal. He thinks you are too stupid to ask for what is rightfully yours.[/quote] Or too weak. OP, you're mom. Your so. To soon be ex is old and might not be around much longer. You gotta put yourself first in a divorce so you can provide for your child. Whatever he gets will be lost to the private equity fund that owns the assisted living he’ll end up in, probably even before your child gets to college. [/quote]
