I would have hidden the money better.

A girlfriend once told me that, if she could, she'd give me 10k (a lot of money in the 1980s) before I got married so I could always afford to leave when things got bad. Her mother was is a horrifically abusive relationship.

I had 30k liquid, just out of sight, when I got married. And, when I was divorce with two kids, that money made a whole lot of difference in terms of our experience adjusting to life without a partner.

Any woman to leave her future at the mercy of a shifting tide is a f&cking fool.

I told my BFF something very similar.  We met in HS and have seen each other through a lot.  She is a SAHM and I am not.  She once called me and asked what she was going to do... She had no money and no credit and they had been in counseling for about a year.  I told her I would cosign her housing lease, cosign a CC, and wire her cash.  We'd work through the emotional stuff once she got settled.  She and her DH ended up reconciling but she knows that if she ever wants to leave I'll help her financially and emotionally.[/quote]

This is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.  Never co sign anything for a friend. They'll just drag you into their shit.
Give her a gift of cash, give her a prepaid card, but never ever co sign,   Hell you shouldn't even do it for your kids.
Wow, just wow.
