WH moved out several months ago. I am concerned on how to protect myself financially during this time of crisis without this totally blowing chances of reconciliation. Any advice?

Hi MS,

If you can,start copying bank statements,credit card bills,mutual fund accounts,cell phone bills,tax reports going back 5 years,stuff like that.Also,anything that relates to retirement funds,life insurance and bonuses,etc.

Also,you can consider doing what I did and that is make an appointment with a Lawyer just for a consult.Do some web surfing for info on divorce and check out this website:

www.divorcenet.com

I learned a lot there.I'm not saying you are getting a divorce but in general there is usually advice on how to prep for one just in case.Also,maintain or get a separate checking account especially if you work.If you are separated,your money should be yours and vice versa,at least for now.Hope that helps.

O
