I don't know how he does it, but my brother came through his first divorce pretty much unscathed, and divorce #2 is looking the same.
He's separated from the second, and she doesn't want anything. I can't decide if he's lucky or unlucky. |

Stop being the nice guy and fight back. She obviously doesn’t give a shit about you.

I met with a financial advisor to evaluate my retirement savings. He said that, other than not saving, nothing ****s with your retirement more than a divorce.

(BTW- Had a very sneaky person who worked with the public once tell me that no matter what a customer wants, reasonable or not, he always gave them a loud "NO" and walked away as if the conversation was done. Then he would force them to kiss his ass until he could give up the smallest thing possible and they stopped pushing because any concession felt like they won. Sneaky bastard. I have many times proven his advice was good since). |

yep watched 50% of mine walk away don’t ever believe it is cheaper to keep her, and don’t believe that bull shit happy wife happy life crap. Bottom line is don’t let anyone control half of your chit or life for that matter. 2 things can change your life for good. I am not happy, I changed my mind. i do not want to be married anymore.

Retirement accounts are dicey. But here’s the thing; you can’t compartmentalize *just* retirement funds. There’s home equity, assets, savings, automobile value, any and all debt, holy **** it’s endless.
This shit is pretty fresh in my head as I just went through it all less than a year ago. OP, keep an eye on your attorney’s billing also. Typically it looks like this; you’ll pay a retainer, let’s say $4k. The lawyer will bill you hourly (or even smaller increments) for his services. When the retainer is eaten up he’ll start billing you hourly. (Or smaller) At some point you’re probably going to see a an hour or two at a much higher rate. That’s most likely a partner looking at the associates work. Like a peer review. Answer ALL correspondences ASAP. If they have to send you a reminder or a “Where we at with this document?” email? You’ll be billed. Document EVERY ****in’ thing and understand it to the best of your ability. Some of it is complicated, mine was. |

And if you do get disability through the Va, she is not entitled to any of that by law, too. |

Always protect yourself. Getting bent over a barrel is the WRONG approach to this. Be viciously calm and calculating. You don't owe her shit. The government says you do. Your fight is NOT with her...it's with the GOV'T. Never give an INCH. The court system is going to sock it to you anyways...no reason to "give" her any more than that.

And oh yeah - Some of her demands may be coming from her lawyer.
Example. My ex makes $80k/year. When I was served one demand was maintenance. I went into ****in’ orbit as you can imagine. Come to find out her lawyer was the one that recommended that, not her. Her attorney is in the hours billed business. She doesn’t give a shit about negotiating in good faith. Ain’t no money in that. |
