re: Interactive Map Ranks Every County in America from Drunkest to Driest

It's not BS.
Wisconsin drinks like nowhere else.
It's our thing.
Every small town has a bar or 5.
For ya'll down South just think of Tennessee and swap the churches for taverns.
The SEC is football crazy but doesn't "drink" as much as a whole. Auburn, Florida, Ole Miss, Tennessee....whe...

Kids from single fathers have outcomes much better than kids from single mothers.
It absolutely matters to have a good Dad around MORE than a mother.

re: Getting financially screwed in divorce
Posted by crazyatthecamp on 2/23/24 at 4:38 pm
This is not true.
My soon to be ex is obsessed beyond belief with out kids.
She just wants to play supermom because that's what she knows from her upbringing.
And I was in retrospect naive in thinking she would appreciate a good husband and father in the family.
Instead....she had no clue ...

Posted by crazyatthecamp on 2/23/24 at 4:33 pm
I get your example.
In my case spouse #1 puts 10% away. Spouse #2 is asked to do the same but doesn't.
In retrospect spouse #1 could have said, fine, I put 20% away ....knowing that with the disagreeable attitude of spouse #2 ....this might not last.
It's just my fault at the end of the day...

No offense taken.
I posted this on the OT so I know it's open for anything.
To your point, I agree 100%. I am not that guy.i fought for the marriage to improve and did counseling multiple times -she refused. She came from a broken home with no father. My parents have 50 years together married. I u...

She has no incentive to settle fairly either.
The longer this drags out the more home equity she collects in the end. She moved out, not me. I want the house, not her.
Sickening process....

Posted by crazyatthecamp on 2/23/24 at 12:36 pm
Yes I could see the Roth and pension contributions being split evenly if i was the only worker and she was a stay at home mom. Or even if she worked part time.
But the case is we both worked full time. The entire marriage. The same job. I just had more experience and pay and saved.

We got mediation next week.
That will be a big day.
I just know that legally it seems I have no leverage and financially it will screw me unfairly. It's hard to fathom actually its so messed up.
They should have an age factor for these sort of divorce settlements regarding retirement money.

I should be able to assume the mortgage and get the rest of the equity to her with a heloc for now.
That 2.7% is really important in this fiasco.

I am also hoping to keep the house. It will be damn close though financially.
But she moved out.
I want to be the stable parent that kept the kids in the family home and in the private school.
And I can eventually recoup some money comparatively to her if I keep the mortgage with the 2.7 % ...

This is halfway where I am at.
I expect her to fully fund any of the kids college accounts. I will be busy trying to replenish retirement funds she took at an age 12.5 years older.
That is only realistic.
Kids will know the full story someday....

Retirement accounts really bother me.
I had way more pension to start. It grew way faster.
She barely put aside money in separate accounts even though I told her she should. I put money away regularly.
I am 12 years older and gets to retire in luxury while I will have to work more years.

I should have had a prenup. Now that I have gone through it ...I believe they should be mandatory.
I also should have been more willing to divorce her despite the kids. I believed I was doing the noble thing. Maybe it was just enabling her because she knew I wouldn't leave because of the kids. S...
