VA is very supportive of the LBS spouse and even lengthens the D process by a year when only one wants it. DH will have to pay for all of my schooling, as well. Right now, he is looking at approximately $50K in school loan debt that he will have to shoulder from me. He had also spoken to many about my going to law school, so he will get that $125K debt, as well. I have not worked for over 5 years, we have been married for 14. The financial repercussions for my DH are mindboggling. He stands to lose, at minimum, 50-75% of his retirement from the military, as well as a 401K like program we enrolled in while married. He has yet to see all of the financials. The true irony of it all? He is the one that encouraged me to pursue a career in Family Law so I could make a difference for the many spouses who get screwed over in the D process.
Blessings, grace, and dignity~ SMW
