Surprised no one has brought up a pre-nup.

Depending on the state it was executed in vs where you divorced may not be wirth the paper it was written on.

I have a buddy who just got divorced (non-pilot). Years ago about 3 years after he got married, he found out is father-in-law who was a lawyer was stealing from his escrows. My buddy spent $100,000 to keep him out of jail (he was still dis-barred). Anyhow, in return for bailing out her dad, he made her sign a post-nuptial agreement that basically stripped away all rights that she has.

Fast forward to 10 years later and he finds out she's having an affair. He divorces her and is basically walking away owing her nothing. Her and the kids are staying in the house that he owns. When kids are gone, he's going to kick her out and sell house. Now he says that was best $100,000 he ever spent.

That is a pretty broad brush statement. You have data to back that up? My understanding, unless it has a clause that is specifically against the divorce state law, the pre-nup is honored. Just like if you and I make a civil contract. Unless it is against a state law, it is pretty much honored in all other states.

Yes. My ex claimed a "distressed mental state due to being pregnant at time of signing" and the "stay out of my finances" parts were trashed.

Duval county Fl, 2007.

The key to having a prenup that can survive legal challenges is that it has to be reasonable. A bus ticket out of town probably will get tossed when you have a high income. We will see how Melania does soon!

Mine was basically a 50/50 marital asset split, with zero alimony in event of infidelity.

That 'reasonable' is about as legally binding as "company will offer if able"

If it is something along the lines of “you take what you brought, and everything else is split 50/50”, then they’re pretty airtight. I’ve see some cases where the other party (both wife and husband) tried to shark up to contest, but the document stood. The absolute key to this working is post-marriage maintenence of assets. As soon as you co-mingle pre-marital assets, then they become attachable. It’s best to simply pack that stuff off into a trust and let it sit, but that takes considerable pre-planning and self-control. Some would say it’s “planning to fail”, but considering the divorce rate, others would say it’s prudent.

I’ve also seen some cases where the husband got alimony, but those are outliers. Small number, but definitely not zero.

In FL specifically, assets acquired via inheritance are protected and cannot be attached in a divorce.

Can’t live with them and it’s against the law to kill them in most states.

Bummer.
