Fire your lawyer if your wife is getting "rich" divorcing you. How can that be??
Whoops. "Rich" is a relative term, a figure of speech...kinda. She's gonna get half of the retirement account (significant amount, which our State says she's entitled to), she's gonna get half the equity in the house (significant amount, which our State says she's entitled to), and she's seeking child support from me (which our State says she's entitled to) even though we're going to have joint legal and physical custody! She'll be able to pay cash for a house of her own after this.
ps - I'll have to refinance the house, and take on additional significant debt, in order to pay her half of the equity in the house, which our State says she's entitled to.
