What are some other matters to consider before asking for a divorce?

In short order, there are several things you need to do before asking for a divorce, including saving up money, building up your own credit, canceling charge cards in case your spouse goes on a spending spree, withdrawing half of the money from joint accounts (in case your spouse decides to pull it all), and, finally: decide how you are going to tell your spouse and then your children. Furthermore, take property that belongs to you and move it out of the house, and don’t make any unnecessary purchases.
