Balto. If you split up, don't most states require both spouses to openly state if and where any assets are located?
If that is the case, having your own stash won't be any advantage. It will be disclosed in the fessing up stage. Is fessing-up the same as discovery? I don't watch Perry Mason or Boston Legal, and I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn.
That is one side of me.
The other side of me has a cash stash. I always have.
In the past, I have bought cars to repair and drive, buy a new furnace, etc.. Recently, I used the money to loan to a friend in a do-or-die financial situation.
I am not hiding it from BB so much as not telling her I have it because if she knows what I have, she gets ideas about how to spend it.
It is also nice to have some extra cash when I invite a group of people out to eat on someone’s birthday. It is my pre-paid fun/emergency fund. I keep it in …………………. Must be a bad connection. The location didn’t show up on the screen.
Balto, maybe buying some 6 month CD in both of your names or in your name but with her as beneficiary, with out telling your W, might be something to do.
I also like Corri's drift. Do what you think a honest CEO would do. Lou
