happen to see on TV last night - Grey's Anatomy - where they were splitting the assets up... Brownstone over Central Park, place in Hamptons, and the classical stocks & bonds.
In real life - what actually happens in divorce with stocks and mutual funds that are setup as JT accounts ?
When my mom died, I know I had to file a form & death cert to remove her name from the various accounts, savings bonds, etc but what's the logistics for a divorce ?
Are you forced to liquidate all assets, split up the cash, and then be burdened with each having 1/2 the cap gains to report ?
