Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are.

Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
I am now brining home less money thanks to divorcing the jerk of an ex-husband. sheeeesh.
Brining home less + child support = still broke as hell!
but, yeah, more goes to uncle sam, hopefully the same or less than was going towards the family
I think I should go see my tax guy before tax season and let them go through these numbers.
Also the child credit can be shared, ever other year. But if the kids do not live with you it is better to ask for a small some from her that year and she still claims then. A little complicated. SO check it all out.
I no longer have to feed her, buy her ciggerettes, or booze. My car insurance is much less (more than 50% less) because she had moving violations. I notice all utilities are less also.
Its odd how the difference in cost between what I had to pay and what I pay now with new mortgage is about the same. Basically I lost a wife and gained some peace and quiet.
I am paying 3-500 more a month than I'll be required to. She's going to have to figure that out since that 3-500 will now be going to uncle sam!
I guess the cost of freedom is higher.
They say there's a marriage penalty... but you get to keep more of your money, or is it a wash? I don't know.
