I heard different stories about us military retirement. Some people said you've to be married for at least 10 years while your spouse still in the service to get part of your spouse retirement money when you get divorced.This means even if you're married 30 or 40years it doesnt count if your married during his active duty only 9 years and and 6 months when he retired. My husband said it too that you've to be 10 years married to get part of your spouse retirement..I'm confused some of my friend said that its not necessary to be 10 years you can get part of your spouse money by percent...So which is true...you've to be at 10 years of by percent...My mom and dad has been married for more than 30 years now but their married while my dad was in active duty only 9 years 6 months. then my dad retired. They're short for 6 months to make 10 years..This means mom won't get anything incase my mom and dad get divorced??Just curious since nothing guaranty...Anyone knoledgeble out there?

it truly is a sticky challenge. money has damaged up households and friends. You did not clarify alot in information. Does he pay off you? How lengthy does it take for him to pay off or ask for further money? If it truly is a consistent imagine, and also you already know the money isn't being spent properly, than do not supply it. If he's quite a strong pal and also you already understand the challenge in which he needs money. Than enable him do not ignore that till he repays you lower back you received't lend out extra. Make it right into a settlement. perhaps also commence pointing out that you're short on money..that way he might want to not imagine of you for any help. really you already know his techniques, plus if hes a close pal you should be able to search for suggestion from with him about it. strong success,tc

I figure this most likely is not going to get me a best answer (because I have serious doubts about your ethics), but how come you, if you are a stable and fun person, are asking this question?
Your father (and, I'm guessing, your husband) put their lives on the line by doing military service. I don't know if you're unsatisfied with your sex life, have compulsivity problems about buying, are unable to hold a job for the sake of creating something decent for society...but nearly all of the reasons I could think of for your wanting these men to give up the retirement money they earned and deserve sole credit for.
You obviously have some reason for "needing" this money, my advice to you is to be enough of a woman to earn it for yourself if you want it that badly.
True, you or your mom may find some loopholes in the law that allow you to steal their money legally, but you have to remember GOD IS WATCHING ALL THIS. And if you can't appreciate what you are able to earn for yourself how will you ever be able to appreciate what lies in the afterlife, where, in most religions, justice is much better than on earth?
And even if you are, say, atheist...realize that money alone leads to addiction to getting more money, not happiness. If you ever noticed, lots of rich people such as Donald Trump, are not happy even though they can find loopholes in the law to get almost anything they want (sex included).
So my suggestion to you, moreover getting a good job or, if you have one, appreciating what you alone can earn from it, is to take up hobbies that make you happy that don't involve spending much money. After all, do you really want to become a naggy old woman, likely in terrible shape, racing between lovers who have no respect for you and those who hate you all because you think it will "enhance your checks and balances?".
Guilt catches up with you and you deserve better: better not meaning more money but a more fun and healthy lifestyle.

As of Yesterday January 1, 2007 the divorced spouse doesn't get any of the retirement money except child-support.
This law was needed as their were to many women out there who wanted a free ride at the expense of the retired military person.
So if you don't have kids at home anymore and you are the female ex spouse you are basically sh*t out of luck. LMAO.

Pardon my confusion.
If someone is contemplating divorce the partner's pension should not be part of the equation.
There is also nothing quite so despicable as grabbing part of a guys pension when leaving.

Do you know what your dad had to do for that pay? Now your mom wants to weasel herself into his retirement pay? Tell her to look elsewhere for money.

Tell your mom to get her own retirement.
