financial disclosure questions

Hi,

I have some questions about financial disclosure.

I am a performer. I have filed a summary dissolution. We claimed no community property & divided up personal possessions & a small amount of $ ourselves. I am owed a small amount of $ which we are settling privately.

*I did some work on the side, outside my day job, which I earned $310 for. I was not paid in full by the end of last year. I claimed the amount ($230) on my taxes. Do I need to disclose this amount to my spouse? We filed separately.

*I forgot I had a small amount of credit ($300) that I had at 2 companies I take classes with. This was not included in the separation of personal possessions. Do I need to disclose it? How much is the spouse entitled to?

*Would knowledge & skills I acquire in these classes & I use successfully in the future be seen as an investment I need to disclose to my spouse?

*For example if I take a real estate class & I acquire knowledge from this class & then buy property, would that be seen as an investment opportunity that needed to be disclosed to my spouse?

*If I meet someone in entertainment as a result of these classes & my work there advances my career, is that an investment op for my spouse?

Thanks
