NH resident here
Wife and I are divorcing amicably and I have a question about money that each of us is earning currently while still legally married. Right now we still have joint accounts and access to same lines of credit, etc.
She earns twice as much as i do and receives sizeable bonus checks from her company for various projects she works on. In December she received one and we used the money to pay off some bills to position us better moving forward.
At the end of March she is scheduled to receive another one and she said "this one's mine", seeming to imply she was going to keep the money for her own use.
Since we are legally married yet living apart, don't you think it would be wise for her to leave the money in an account until the divorce is settled? It would seem to be money that cannot be used by one person and not the other at this point and based on the current "married" status.
