Safeguard your credit when getting a divorce
When you divorce it is important to keep in mind that your lenders (be they mortgage lenders, auto finance companies or credit cards) are NOT bound by the terms of your divorce decree. If you do not plan well this could be a financial pitfall for both of you.

You can find the book You’re Nothing But a Number mentioned in the article here.
