I save about £500 per month. Should I continue with this despite my wife wanting a divorce?
I'm also unsure of how I am allowed to use my savings during this time and what discretionary spending would be accepted?
I'd like to travel to Australia for 3 weeks but would this be seen as asset stripping?
Can I withdraw money to spend in cash/save?
Can I clear my student loan which I acquired before marriage?
Background:
Dating started 10 years go. Moved in together 7 years ago. Married 4 years ago.
50/50 on all bills via joint account (1K each in every month). Rest of income for discretionary spending or saving.
Mortgage: 150K equity. £120K left to pay.
I have 50K in savings. Partner £2000
Similar incomes and pensions. Partner - spends almost all their left over income income. I save about 1/6 of mine every month and have for many years. No debts between us other than my 6K student loan. No kids.
Unsure if petty to include but wife's parents pay for some of her holidays and her mobile phone bill ...
