GWM, living in a system with no people, lots of land, few services, and other revenue streams aside from personal or property taxes. Pretty bad with life, though.

Here in Florida a huge portion of our tax money comes from vacation taxes on hotels and attractions so we get a free lunch in the form of making other people pay for it  I mean you have to live in Florida to take advantage of it, but still

Bunch of military people will claim Texas as their state of residency for tax purposes, because there's no state income tax. If you're military and get stationed early in your career in Texas, you can keep registering your vehicles and getting your driver's license renewed there. Then no matter where orders take you, you get to pay Texas state income taxes ($0). Don't worry about actually living in Texas too. Military towns sorta suck almost everywhere, but there are many places that are much worse you could get stationed. http://paycheck-chronicles.military.com/2015/02/27/residence-vs-home-record/

Sounds like they made some bad decisions, got overextended, then hit some poo poo luck with the injury that put one of them out of work. I read it as "husband is only working part time, thus they will qualify for BK due to income restrictions", but someone read it as "he's working part time in order to qualify due to income restrictions" and the poo poo hit the fan after that. Flipping is still stupid but jeez.

Just got a job offer that pays well and is in a location with a low COL, but it is almost expected that you own a horse/are in to horse racing. GWM? BWM?

Everyone everywhere is BWM, it just depends on how you're going to spend it. Like RVs to tailgate college football games. That seems pretty BWM.

Just fake it. Say you have a horse and then just complain constantly about how much the boarding/feeding costs you while actually putting that money into retirement/savings. Keep a browser tab open to a saddle shop or horse monthly or something. If anyone asks to actually see your horse or asks you to come riding, tell them that it died unexpectedly from a twisted gut and act surly for a week before talking about buying another one.

I have some questions, I want to know if I can get child support lessened or waived because of the circumstances of me not remembering or being drunk? And how will all this work in the divorce because I'm the dependant spouse? We have been married for 2 years and together for 2 before that. We don't have kids but we were trying for one.

A bad plan from /r/pfquote:Hello, quote:I'd rather bank on USD holding its value than equities. I don't see how there being a pot of money that anyone can stick their hand in and come out with 7% per year is believable or going to last at all. I just don't trust the idea. I'd rather just hold it in cash and make more money through my career. The cost of keeping your money in something like that doesn't seem worthwhile to me anyway.
