To answer about the house being half million dollars in a 47k. The house cost $319 when we bought it in 1999. I put in 200k from a money I got when my father passed away. I never knew that a few years later I'd be getting a divorce. Had I known it I'd have got an apartment as a separate property for me. I did consider using part of the money for education but I had to stay home with the kids because he worked 52 hours a week and wouldn't budge of staying with the kids while I pursued an education. He did say over and over again during our marriage that the reason we didn't have a mortgage was because of me. We haven't had a mortgage sense 2007. Once you have a mindset that having a mortgage is the norm you just have to have one, so he went and got a yacht that he knew he couldn't afford but thought the business could...but then came the bad economy.
The reason I want the house so bad is that I am in a foreign country with not a single family member here. So I need it as a security. Somehow he has father, mother, siblings, business that he has worked for 30 years and a professional license.
I can not return to my country where I have family because now I have my children here.
In relation to the gas. The only reason I consider asking is that the business has always paid for the gas (gas card) for my gas, stbx's gas, his father's gas, his stbx's father's gas e.t.c and I know he doesn't keep track of anything the business books are a mess.
Yregna, I am not a gold digger I just made the wrong choice to stay home with the kids instead of getting an education. I am so grounded that I used my inheritance to pay a house. He is the gold digger (towards his business) who gets a yacht and have the business pay for it, who gave my car as a down payment in a brand new luxurious BMW ( i think it cost over 80k) and gave me his old car to use. Which is the car I use to this day...leaking oil and all. Btw even the cars are in the name of the business...if we are talking about gold diggers.
By keeping the house I am protecting my children from a financial irresponsible father.
