[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. My husband makes a lot of money. Can afford to support two households. Alternatively, if we split our assets down the middle (assuming no alimony), I would walk away with several million dollars. Enough to give me a nest egg and start over.[/quote] You mean his assets? Have some pride.[/quote] No. I mean OUR assists since it is money that was mutually saved and invested during our marriage. Neither of us came into it with any money. If we divorced, I would be legally entitled to half (I don't live in the DC area btw). And since we've been married for a long time and have very young children, he would probably be required to pay alimony for a number of years. Cheating on me would be a VERY expensive proposition for him.[/quote] Not to belabor the point but they are "his assets" as long as you are married, they are "our assets" of you divorce. The alimony laws are very different today than they were 10 years ago and they will only get harsher for SAHP's that are educated as time goes on (and as men try to get alimony out of their wives).
