We are separated, but living under the same roof while we work out a parenting plan (we have a toddler), property settlement, etc. She'll be moving out soon (to be with the colleague she's been having an affair with) and needs wheels. Yesterday she purchased a used SUV for $70K using funds from our joint account. We currently share a 2013 SUV worth maybe half that.
As I'm likely to get a larger % of the asset pool (for various reasons relating to length of relationship, ongoing child custody, assets owned prior to relationship, her higher income, etc), will I be effectively subsidizing this purchase or will it come out of 'her share' of the asset split?
