My wife and I are separated. I am thinking about getting a personal loan of $10,000 during this divorce process at a great interest rate (for a personal loan)….

I just want a little safety net of money, in case things go south and lawyer fees start to pile up, alimony is unknown atm etc. I have a good job, vehicle paid off, and will have no issue paying the monthly bill. My plan is to actually pay it off entirely once the divorce is over, and the dust settles.

My question is….if that $10,000 gets sent to my checking account will my ex get $5000 (50%) of that money since it’s in my checking account?
