I did it myself - the book cost $12.95 and the divorce cost $110 - then we went out to lunch so it cost another $15 after that.

I got out cheap... lawyer and everything was 5k, mostly because I had been seperated for a long time and my wife's lawyer didn't do any discovery on what my income was at that point.

Lets say you have an offshore account, and your wife knows it. But it's under your name and you don't sign a prenup. Can she go after the funds that are there?

Not divorced (knocking on wood). My wife and I talk about everything on our minds. No topic is off limits. We have evolved our relationship to the point that all fights and ill feelings are resolved within 30 minutes. Hopefully, this diffuses any brewing discontent. Plus, we're beginning to think the same thoughts and are starting to look like each other (kinda eerie since this happens only to couples married for a long time--we've only been married since June 2004). Anyway, best of luck to those who are married. Keep communication channels open at all times and remember to try to keep your ego out of the discussion (helped me a lot when I did that!).

It depends on the law in your jurisdiction. Most jurisdictions follow an "equitable" standard. In California, where I've lived for quite some time, the standard is COMMUNITY PROPERTY. IF the asset grew during your time together EVEN THOUGH THE ORIGINAL ASSET was not your wife's she is entitled to HALF the appreciated value. It will get tricky if the original asset was 'comingled' in some way with other marital assets.... I'd say, speak with a family lawyer in your jurisdiction.
