Legal Question in Family Law in Missouri

My husband of 2.5yrs left me with no notice and is now filing for divorce. He makes 3x the amount I do. We are upside in the house and our cars(which he currently is still paying for). My question is.....how long could I drag this out to be able to live in the house since I can't afford rent or a car payment now? I have a very small amount in a retirement fund(6k), while he came into the marriage with over $500K in a retirement plus as accrued more in another job he accepted. Is it possible that I will need to pay any of our debt? During legal proceedings will I have to pay "rent" to him?? I guess what I'm asking...what's the worse case scenerio? What's the best?
