Yes, half of nothing is nothing. He has no assets (unless he has secreted something away or owned before marriage!) and little current income.
If anything, OP may have to give half her 401k to the ex. If OP can walk away with nothing, that would be a win. Take the win and start over. Imagine how upset op would be if she had to fork over half her 401k AND pay HIM alimony.

Late thirties
My income: 125k
His income: varies since he is self employed for the past 5 years. Some years he has made 300k, the past 2 years he has made 120k-60k, this year he has made 15k so far? He also works part time at a local music store teaching music making $20/hr
We do not have any kids or property as we rent. I have a small 401k of 250k and he has no retirement savings.
I would like to file due to him wasting my time and refusing to grow up and breaking all his vows; serial cheating and alcoholism, gaslighting, refusing to obtain steady employment and work on shared goals.
I am devastated and furious, I thought he could at least pay me to freeze my eggs or I can get some alimony to rebuild my life.
I have met with 3 attorneys and they all recommend a noncontentious divorce that is cheap and quick as we have nothing to fight over and for me to tell him we each walk away with what we have.
I want to make him pay!! But apparently I can't?? :(
You have a vagina
Terminate this relationship and sell it to another lost soul
It is your birthright as a female to be taken care of
