The wife and I are on "Hard" times right now and I do not know if we will make it or not. All finances that I have earned over the past 13 years have gone to our house, kids, etc. and I have pretty much nothing saved. The reason that we did it that way was because that my wife had a trust that she received 4 years ago when she reached a certain age. She is now asking to "seperate" so that we can see what we really want. My question is this... If I agree to the separation, do I jeopardize "anything" financial that I may have a right to? I do not want to take her money, but I do feel as if I have a right to some of the interest that the money has made over the years. Could she be positioning herself in a better way than me?
