What he is entitled to is quite clear. You made the decision to live in a community property state and what goes with it is split division of assets. Your claim is more arbitrary since you'se basing it on a presumption on not what currently exists, but what you presume will exist over time, that being him making more money and you tapping out at where you are currently. That's speculation on your part as you have no clue what he'll be earning 2 years from now or 10 years from now, nor what you'll be earning during that time also. If he decided to do legal aid a year from now, then what? Does he get to ask you for alimony since he'd be making less than you?
