Re: divorce
The general rule regarding marital property is that anything acquired during the marriage using marital funds is considered marital property subject to equitable division. Regarding money for basic needs, if you are able to work, you should consider getting a job to earn your own money. If you are unable to work, you may be eligible for disability benefits.
