Isn't it amazing how she starts the call by wondering what she should do with HER student loans? You may think she understands that HER debt is HER debt

And I did say it helps kids with two years free college and it's working well. But this where I live. There are around 10 countries in the world with no PPT. At least two or more in the Middle East. Maybe two countries along the pacific rim I think. I'm sure there are daily flights to those places.
I really hate how people talk about working through the relationship and saving it. I'm getting ready to go through a separation and when people talk to me about going to see a marriage Councillor or something, I HATE it. You don't think we've thought of that? You don't think we've tried various things before coming to this decision? You think that you suggesting that is what's going to suddenly save our relationship? If people are talking about separation, and are asking for advice about it, they aren't asking for advice on how to save the relationship.

I certainly understand your feelings, given how situations like this have become the norm. I don't think she has a very good reason for getting a divorce..."We're not on the same page anymore". I bet the husband may not think that...and he will be sideswiped (or was, if she went through with it.) That happened to me and it was devastating. However, I know that not all men would do such things and I do believe there are good, Godly men out there who would love to have a loving wife. Just the same way, not all women would do such a thing to a man. Unfortunately, too many would, but there are still some of us out here who wouldn't. Folks may or may not believe me. I just was so sad for the man in this situation, the whole conversation.

My alcoholic wife got heavy duty religion and went and got a Master's degree on some religious course , we're separated I have no idea how much it cost her but Wheaton college is pretty fancy.
My wife and I are working on this as well…we each have $300k retirements…a house worth $300k that we owe $89k on….and the only shared debt is a $12k loan. We have agreed to leave each others retirements alone and sell the house. I would like to tap my own retirement to build a place on land I have…and try to live mortgage free for the rest of my life. I have fifteen more years of working to rebuild the retirement.
I too am preparing for divorce. My husband told me if he hears "Dave Ramsey says..." one more time one of us will be out the door. Lol. Just kidding. We are both loving knoeing where our money is going! Thanks DR!

That's why it is a BS racket. Friend of mine paid Alimony to his wife who had a 90K per year job. He just so happened to make 400K. So this woman who just up and decided after 2 years she didn't want to be married anymore took half of his retirement and over 1 year of 35% of his gross income. All for the grievous sin of not being lovable to her anymore.
Sounds. like the husband was propping her up. She will be like most divorce women. Broke and struggling. Still trying to live off the man.
My husband wants a divorce. Can i protect my retirement savings? We live in WA state.

Washington is a community property state..and a no fault divorce state..50/50 division of assets..alimony child support and 50% of pension or 401K during the marriage...
Wanted to divorce. Husband is financially abusive (among other things). Couldn't get any college education. Put us in a rural area - nearest neighbor is distant. He held all the money and vehicles. Refused to divorce. Put us into debt so that I "couldn't get any of his money". Can't afford any lawyers. Just waiting for the youngest to leave the nest. I don't want to be rich. I just want out.

Take some ownership here. You didn't have to move to a rural area with him and you don't need his permission to divorce.
Hahahaha. This was the best show I've seen Dave do and he definitely made her realize she's about to feel the pain and she sounds like a controlling wife.
Im Mom staying at home if my husband wants to divorce me I will have to represent myself because we don’t share bank accounts he has a good job making 120k we have a house paying mortgage and 2 little ones can some body tell me what probably I’m going to get .

If he tries to go after you're ability to mother the children, you may get nothing. Many times (in fact most of the time) things like child support and custody are decided during mediation (they don't actually make it to court).

How on earth does someone get $160k student loan debt and only earn $50k when you are at least 20 years into your career?
Lemme get this straight. He makes 1.5 times she makes but she’s divorcing him b/c of money? Okay

concerning she has 160k in student loan debt and a job paying only 50k/yr.
Man calls in: I’m preparing for divorce, I don’t have my wife in my credit card Dave: You are a poor excuse of a man. Everything should be together. Woman calls in: I’m preparing for divorce, my husband isn’t on my credit card. Dave: Good! Now make sure you shut down all the joint accounts.

Wow the audacity to get out of personal debt thru divorce. No morals
She has $160,000 in student loans, no equity in a home, makes $50,000 a year, she's now looking at being responsible for all bills not just half, she will have to do all of the repairs or pay someone to do it, she was married 22 years and still could not read books, sounds like a hillbilly, she will have zero choices for a man... gee, what's not to like?
And they say no one plans to fail.
This is why I stand at odds with Dave on marriage. If your going to financially invest with someone, why force the government into every other aspect of the finances.
Sad situation, everyone but the lawyers win in the end....The husband shouldn't be obligated to pay her student loan debt if that is what she was hoping for, no dang way.
"Dave, I'm about to go through a divorce, what do I do with my debt." Me. Pay your debt you deadbeat.
Im sorry but just take your life and move on. You cant leave the job and still get paid for it. Split things down the middle and move on

You don't understand what marriage actually is if that's your take.

Counseling is very expensive, not everyone can afford it. Specially when money is tight. Easy to say go to a counselor Dave.

@@auemmjee I agreed with you. I am not married or have any children and about to retire soon, but have divorced brothers and sisters, and it was a nightmare for them, I learned at lot from them, even years and years later still dealing with their ex's, I'll say no to marriage, it's a 50-65% divorce rate investment, and it is an investment from the heart and money, just date and don't have any children, and if want children good luck with that, that's another nightmare scenario. Seen it in every family.
Yes. Divorce becomes transactional. Why have such a large student loan making $50k?
