What is the name of your state? Wisconsin
My husband & I have been married for 8 years and it's coming to a screeching halt.
The morning we got married he closed on our house 200K down payment (out of his investment account) 200K financed in his name.
My income went to all the bills from grocery to insurance - he paid the house payment, separate checking accounts.
He also contributed to HIS retirement account claiming I didn't need one since it's for both of us.
I realize now how stupid I've been, I should have protected myself like he did.
Moving forward what should I do?
Am I entitled to any of the equity in the house? It's now worth 800K.
I'm not looking to get rich, but I don't want to start from sq 1!
