Divorce isn’t just the end of a relationship — it’s often the start of a financial nightmare. In this episode, Steve Rhode, the original Get Out of Debt Guy, and Damon Day, the new Get Out of Debt Guy, dive deep into the ugly mix of money, debt, and divorce. From the skyrocketing cost of contested cases to the fallout of hidden debt, blended families, child support battles, and credit destruction, Steve and Damon reveal how financial mistakes and emotional decisions can ruin lives long after the marriage ends.
You’ll hear real examples of how debt gets weaponized in divorce, why “you divorce your spouse, not your creditors” is a rule everyone should know, and what happens when loyalty to creditors costs families their future. Most importantly, you’ll get a path forward — how to treat divorce like dissolving a business, avoid the landmines, and protect yourself, your kids, and your future.
