Back in the day women made sure life insurance, retirement funds,deeds where in their name. Prenup for the rich but we need to have this mindset .

I’m so glad TikTok exists so that women can share their experiences. My mother had full control of all the finances and the passwords to everything.

Having your name on the deed protects ownership interest in the house. It does not guarantee that you can afford to keep the house after a divorce. Doesnt removing him off the loan generally require refinancing, an approved loan assumption and release of liability, or paying off the mortgage? If it were me, I'd walk away and let the spouse with no income history keep the house but I want my ½ of the equity.

So many people don’t realize the mortgage is just debt and the deed is ownership

Since she is still legally married, she can apply for a credit card using his income. When it asks for the occupation, you put homemaker.
