Please Help!

Quick question, to save you all from my gloom.

Can my Wife come after my Rolex in our recent news of her filing for divorce? I used tax money to pay off the CC I bought them with.

This may be one instance where it could be justified to buy a Folex. Just give it to her instead of the real one!

In most states she is entitled to half of everything. She sounds like she is being vindictive though and you may want to secure representation quickly to avoid a royal hosing. Women seem to have an unfair advantage in divorce situations.

Good luck. I'm sorry to hear of your situation.

Sorry I had not made it back to update, that will be another post. Long story short and to the topic of this forum...I got to keep my watches!!! WOOO HOOO! I will update my scenario at a later time. I just felt that you guys deserved to know that i am still out here and browsing TRF!

In your case it sounds like it's better to keep the watches than the wife.



Good luck.

Good for you. I'm sorry that you had to go through that turmoil, but glad you made it through with your watches and computer (for surfing TRF of course).
Hopefully happier days are ahead.

I mean to the watch and not to the wife.

Get a good copy and stick the real one in the office drawer.

OJ did the same swap when they came for his gold Rolex. Everyone laughed at him for having a fake, but he laughed the loudest as his real one was in a plastic back at the bottom of the cistern.

Good for you............

As you probably found out, it's a two way street...

If she starts adding up the "VALUE" of your watches, then you can also add up the value of her jewelry, luxury handbags, and Jimmy Choos....
