Not sure what to do....

Still not sure what to do..

I live in the state of Michigan.

I have been married for 30 years this Sept.

I finally told him the other night it was over. He told me if I stay with him, he will continue to pay all the bills, and try to give me $100.00 a week.
He said if I move out, he will pay the first and last months rent for me, and $100.00 a week. And that will mean I will need to go out and job that will support me. He has never allowed me to work outside the home, nor never allowed me to go to college so I could get a skill of some sort.

But, what I'm thinking is.....
His Mom just died. She had lots of money.
Where we live there is lots of other lots that he (husband) just found out are all in his name. He wants to forfeit them, have them sold and split the money with his brothers. Seeing how we are still married, would any of that money be mine?
I feel I should get more than $100.00 a week if we split.

We do own our house, he has many assist, some I know about, and some I'm sure I don't. I have no money to get me a lawyer, so I don't know what to do.....
