"You have your reasons why, say, you chose not to get more credit and get a good lawyer immediately and include a repayment of your legal fees by ex with the divorce decree. Whatever your excuses are, they are just that. That solution might have worked and you didn't try it. That's not HIS fault."
Getting further into debt with no job was not an option for me. But let's say I filled out the form to up my credit limit. Let's say I pulled it off, with a different address and lesser income than when we both worked. And let's say they gave me an additional 5k. So then I hook up with an attorney, who tells me he/she can file a "no-fault" divorce one year after separation for a retainer fee of 4500 or a grounds-based divorce sooner for a fee of 5000. I choose fault b/c lawyer says I can win. Then we wait. It ends up taking about a year with his training schedule, court cancellations, etc. I have to drive to VA a couple of times, which costs more. But for the first 8 months of this wait, I'm not making any $$. After that 8 months I am making a very little, but not enough to pay the now large credit card bills. My credit is ruined. Not a chance I want to take. It would be idiotic.
"I don't think $50,000 for SS is reasonable"
Please stop thinking the 50k is all for spousal support. It is NOT. I've said that before.
