    Fcuking cheek of it, I'm only 44!

    Although as I'm now going through a divorce where my Ex is looking to take every last penny I have, I may well end up reitiring at 83

    Is your ex the Spanish bird we met in the Woodbine all those years ago?

    unless you have the kids at least 50% of the time, you're going to get fúcking rinsed, Marve...

    Mate of mine just agreed his split. They've got one 14 year old daughter but because she lives with the mother it was a 56/44 split in the mother's favour. On top of which he has to pay maintenance.

    Wish I'd had his solicitor for mine. He's done well with that split.

    I think mine was around 75:25. Guess which one I got

    Mine was 60:40 (not in my favour) plus maintenance plus 25% of private pension.

    I think I left the marriage with 25% of the equity of the house, a frying pan, set of knives and a couple of wine glasses.

    The ex was working in a 'special class status' role, so I could have insisted on half her pension - if she went after mine - as soon as she was 55. She decided to leave our pensions out of the settlement.

    I am still paying maintenance.

    There's nothing quite like a divorce to damage one's financial resilience
