[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It drives you crazy knowing your wife isn't maximizing her investments. But, it would drive your wife crazy to feel like she could lose her money on a given day. So, you have to let this one go. People are different, and you can't try to control them or they will resent you.

[b]Besides, if you divorce, you won't have her income to try to micromanage anyway[/b]. It's just "bonus money" at this point.

Frankly, it could be a lot worse. You could be married to someone with a spending problem.

Stop being an ass and enjoy what you have.[/quote]

Is this actually true?  If they divorced, I would think that the retirement accounts accumulated during the course of the marraige would be considered joint marital assets.  Therefore, if DW's account is worth 100k and DH's account is worth 500k, DW would be entitled to 200k of DH account.  Maybe an attorney who practices in this area can tell me if this is accurate.  If so, OP does have legitimate concerns all around.  TIA. [/quote]

This is all I was saying: If he divorces her tomorrow, her future income will no longer be his to micromanage. But I see your point.[/quote]
