Thank you for your insight AllForHer,
Our asset pool is $50K in mutual owned assets, $70k inheritance that she received 1 1/2 year ago, $20K that I received in inheritance 2 1/2 years ago and $500K in Super all earned while we were married 75% by me and 25% by my wife.
I am inclined to accept she keeps her inheritance, I keep mine and we split everything else 50/50. Any thoughts?
Also, I do understand that I may have to split assets less favourable than 50/50 but does that really count for Super as well?
When I am 67, my income earning capacity is significantly reduced and probably the same as hers, so it seems fair that Super is split 50/50 - again I would love to have your input?
Thanks
