[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need a lot more information OP. How many kids? How much set aside for emergencies, college, retirement? What does DH in relation to what you earned?[/quote] 2 kids. I'd have at least $3m in assets if he divorced me, consisting of separate property and half our marital assets, excluding 529 plans. $500k in 529 plans. His income alone covers our spending, but barely, and he's the spender. I don't need a big house, an expensive car, or an even more expensive club membership to be happy. My parents have more than enough money to cover their end of life care and they will leave me an inheritance, but hopefully not for many more years. His parents are irresponsible with money and dependent on him. If I were long-term unemployed, we’d save at least $60k per year on childcare plus maybe $15k on eating out, commuting costs, and dry cleaning. And I'd have time to exercise, cook, socialize, and be a whole person instead of a workhorse. [/quote]
