"How to Have an Amicable Divorce" in Real Woman

Marianna shares her insight on the law and finances to help you secure your best life after divorce.  

"Goldenberg stresses that the goal of a collaborative divorce is an “equitable, not equal” settlement. For instance, if a woman agrees that part of her settlement will be an IRA in her husband’s name and she’s not yet 59½, she won’t be able to use that money for current expenses unless she pays tax and a penalty to withdraw it. Translation: If the wife needs that money now, the split would not be equitable, even if her spouse receives an equal number of assets. If that’s a bit confusing or surprising, it only underscores the wisdom of seeking a professional who is schooled in divorce-related finances..."

"Split Decision" in Real Woman

Marianna speaks to Real Woman about what motivated her to become a CDFA and how she is able to help women in this role.

"Buoyed by strong word of mouth, especially among women, Goldenberg went out on her own after this “A-ha! moment” and founded CURO Wealth Management in Langhorne, Pa. She works to ensure her clients have a clear understanding of their post-divorce financial situation before an agreement is reached and there’s equitable distribution of assets for the short and long term."
