In this episode Susan Guthrie talks with Lili Vasileff, one of the Leading Divorce Financial Professionals in the Country and author of three books on the subject, about the reinvigorated topic of Grey Divorce, as highlighted by the recent spate of high profile billionaire divorces.  The fact is, they can afford to get divorced, but for those of more modest means, Lili points out the many financial pitfalls, and strategies to avoid or minimize them, for those divorcing later in life! The news has been full of reports about some high profile, ultra high net worth divorces in recent months, most recently that of Bill and Melinda Gates who have been married for 27 years.  In fact, the later years or "grey divorce" is the most common age group getting divorced these days!  According to the most recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau, divorce rates were highest (about 43%) among both sexes, aged 55 to 64.  This is more than just an interesting little tidbit of information if you are in this demographic and getting divorced as the finanancial ramifications of getting divorced when you are older can have serious and long-lasting effects and mistakes made during the divorce process can be catastrophic.  As Lili and Susan say, "In divorce, there are no do-overs!"  The key take-aways are: get professional help if you can, educate yourself and take charge of your own financial destiny.  Lili is passionate about financial literacy and this episode will help you to see why - be sure to listen!

Nobody likes to talk about their debts and it's often the hardest part of negotiations in divorce.Too often, one spouse didn't realize the extent of the debt or perhaps there's always been conflct because one party is a spender and the other is a saver. Perhaps both spouses knew about the debt but didn't really pay attention to it because, well, life was grand, the money was coming in, and borrowing for a second car or a vacation was part of the plan. It was all going to work out.But then it doesn't work out and divorce happens. That means you have to confront reality.Can the debt be paid off?Who should take which debts?Who can afford to pay back the debt?How all that happens depends on circumstances for the debt in the first place and the type of debt it is - credit card debt is different from car loan debt is different from 401(k) debt is different from student loan debt. You get the picture?Ugh. But you don't have to figure it yourself! Joining Mandy for this Conversation is financial guru, Lili Vasileff.

Brad has over 25 years of addressing the financial concerns of retirees and business owners.  Add his strong communication skills and Brad, after first listening to his clients’ needs and concerns, is able to simplify and explain in everyday language even the most complex concepts and alternatives. He treasures the trust his clients place in him and safeguards it by his words and actions.  His reputation for unquestioned integrity is far more important to him than any fee or commission.  For these reasons and more, Brad often forms a close personal relationship with his clients. While he can be described as a personable and caring person with a passion for his work, Brad’s most accurate characterization might be “the consummate professional.” His singular goal is to treat his clients “as if they were my own parents” and help them build a sound foundation for their financial house.  By any measure, some say, he is an advisor worth standing in line to do business with. Build Credit In Case of A Divorce Divorce can be hard on your personal finances, particularly if you haven't established credit in your own name. If you have no credit, or a thin credit file, getting credit when you need it, perhaps to rent a car, buy an airline ticket or shop online, could be challenging. This happens more often to older women who weren't the primary income earners in their household while they were married, says Ronit Rogoszinski, a wealth adviser at Arch FinancialGroup in New York's Long Island. "A lot of women just never got the Visa or MasterCard or American Express,"Rogoszinski says.Separate while married The best way to fix the problem is to avoid it by establishing separate credit while your marriage is still happy, says Rod Griffin, director of public education at the credit bureau Experian. "Ideally, you maintain an individual account or 2 in your own name in the event that something unexpected happens," Griffin says. That could be a divorce or some other financial calamity. A small purchase every few months typically is enough to keep an account open and active. In some states, new separate credit isn't an option for married couples because state law automatically deems new credit accounts established during the marriage to be jointly held. You'll have to check to see if that's the case in your state. Splitting up Another approach is to establish separate credit during the divorce, using the primary wage-earner's income and credit history to qualify, says Lili Vasileff, founder of Divorce and Money Matters, a divorce financial planning firm in Greenwich,Connecticut. The 1st step is to obtain your own credit report. This report can help you find out: ·      Credit that's open in your name. ·      Debts you don't know about(if any). ·      Credit reporting errors that can be corrected. It's also a good idea to find what points, airline miles and other perks are associated with various accounts. Vasileff says these are marital assets and can be subject to negotiation during the divorce. The next step is to open a major credit card in your own name "as if everything is normal," Vasileff says. Then get a car loan, open a bank account, sign a rental agreement or take other actions to establish separate personal finances. "These little,small steps are very key," Vasileff says. "Because then, by the time you're divorced, you're up and running and have things you can point to." Some couples split up their credit accounts before they untie the knot. This separation can be easier if your accounts have small balances and payments have been made on time, Griffin says. In those cases, creditors might be more willing to work with you to remove 1 spouse from an account. Don't expect creditors to honor your agreements with your soon-to-be ex, however. "A divorced ecree doesn't change the contract you have with the lender," Griffin says. Over and onward The other option is to establish your own credit after the divorce is finalized. "In that situation, you're faced with the same kinds of challenges as anyone who is establishing credit for the first time," Griffin says. You might need to start out with a joint account that you open with a co-signer or a secured credit card that requires a deposit. A credit union or regional bank might be more willing to open a credit account for someone without much credit history, Rogoszinski suggests. "I don't believe anything is hopeless," she says. "If the 1st bank turns you down or the 1st store doesn't offer credit to you, try another one." One challenge for people who are recently divorced can be a lack of income to qualify for credit. "The only income these individuals have to show is spousal support," Vasileff says."Spousal support generally (can't be used to qualify for) at least 6 to 12months, so these people are sort of out of luck for a gap in time,post-divorce." If you rent your home, you can ask your landlord to report your positive payments to a credit bureau. That can help you establish credit as well, Griffin says. It can take several months or longer to establish enough credit to generate a credit score. It's generally easier to start from 0 than to repair credit that has been trashed. Take care Once you've established credit, do whatever you can to nurture, build and protect it. "Manage that credit card like it's gold," Rogoszinski says."Don't take on balances you can't pay because the interest alone could spiral you into a pit you don't want to be in. When you get the bill, review every entry (looking for) identity theft and fraud. Keep your receipts and make sure the receipts match the statement. And always, always, always, always make the payment on time."
