Divorce is already brutal. But when the money is handled wrong, it stops being “emotional pain” and turns into “your future just got cut in half.” In today’s 12 Days of Giving episode, Jamie Lima is back—and we walk through a real case where a woman was about to sign a settlement that would have effectively given away $300K–$400K she didn’t need to lose and forced her to sell the home she desperately wanted to keep for her and her special needs daughter. Jamie breaks down how this client—Mary—came to him at the tail end of her divorce. Attorney in place. Settlement basically done. Everyone “felt” like it was fair. But the numbers didn’t smell right. Once Jamie dug into the pension valuation, the 401(k), the house, and the way the QDRO was being handled, it became clear: the math was wrong, the tax advice was off, and she was about to pay the price for other people’s blind spots.We get into the uncomfortable truth: most divorce attorneys are not money people. They’re experts in law, not in pensions, actuarial tables, tax rules, or QDROs. Yet millions of people just nod along and sign whatever’s in front of them—because they’re exhausted, emotional, and just want it to be over. That’s exactly how life-changing mistakes get locked in for the next 20–30 years.You’ll hear how a simple 30-day “divorce clarity” review turned a $2,000 investment into a $400,000 problem avoided, allowed Mary to keep her house, protect her daughter’s future, and avoid an unnecessary tax hit that her original advice would have triggered. This isn’t theory. This is what it looks like when someone who actually understands the numbers steps into the process.If you’re going through a divorce—or you know someone who is—this episode is your wake-up call. Get a second opinion. Stop letting emotions and fatigue make permanent financial decisions. And stop pretending your attorney is your financial planner.👉 Watch the full episode on YouTube: [YOUTUBE LINK]This is part of our 12 Days of Giving series running from December 12–23, where each day we drop a real conversation designed to protect your money, your mind, and your future—not just entertain you for 30 minutes.As always we ask you to comment, DM, whatever it takes to have a conversation to help you take the next step in your journey, reach out on any platform!Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram, Tiktok, LinkedinDISCLOSURE: Awards and rankings by third parties are not indicative of future performance or client investment success.
