Quoted from mulder2010:My ew-wife did care when we were divorcing and asked for half of their current value (she settled for half of their cost). Funny how the jewelry that she received from me was a "gift" (not subject to division), but my collection was fair game. I was only allowed to treat her, and not myself! Very happy to be away from her.
Sad but true. In NJ the wife gets half of everything in divorce, even pention and retirement money. Luckily for me, the wife accepted my hobby a while ago when I started selling restored games for big $. When I bought a game, she always asked what I paid, and again when I sold one. Then cringe until I see the look of approval or disapproval on her face.
