It happens all the time where it's in the divorce agreement that one spouse carry the other on their insurance until a certain date or until he/she remarries.

Will the company allow the ex-spouse to remain in your plan though?

I think it depends on the type of coverage you have. Who is your insurance carrier?

It’s currently with Kaiser, but I have an option to use Cigna

If you have a court order requiring it, yes. Otherwise, no.

Correct. I got divorced last year and had to be taken off his insurance immediately. Unless the court requires it, you usually can't keep them on.

I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

Currently 25 years old.
Goals:
* Own a home in a HCOL
* 2 kids (eventually)
* Retire at 50 on $125k/year.

Envelope math:
* $125k/year would require an investment portfolio of ~$3M.
* Targeting a $2M home (split with partner)
* 2 kids - $1M to raise both (including college fund, split with partner)
* $500K buffer for unexpected expenses
* 33% tax

Therefore, 6.5-7M retirement savings needed. To hit this (assuming 6% return after inflation), I’d need to save ~$110k/year.

How does this sound?
