I am trying to reduce my rent as I have sole custody of two kids and I'm going through a messy divorce.

A loan can work if she prefers structure, with IRS-required interest, but she could forgive parts each year under the annual exclusion.For a one-time $200K transfer, trusts or custodial accounts are usually unnecessary unless her estate is near the threshold.

Well, the husband made 90% of the income of the household, but the custody situation and negative impact by a divorce are just an unknown.

If she l, say, relinquished custody and I adopted him, that would be a different story, but that is not the case at all. 

I’ve questioned it and continually insists this is the way to go).Here’s the catch: my husband has to furnish taxes every year to his ex for a custody case, and she combs through them.

If you self-custody your crypto assets via a hardware wallet, there is absolutely no way for the government, bad actors, etc to tax or steal your tokens unless you deliberately mess up your operational security or store your assets in a lazy fashion / on exchanges.

This all has happened within the last 3 months as this person was just released from federal custody maybe 8-9 months ago.

I am a single mom with full custody and a restraining order.

We bought two years ago and we got a decent deal on an interest rate thanks to buying a new build but… we all know how new builds go.We cannot move out of state until my 9yo stepson is older because of shared custody agreement with a very toxic coparent.

Also study checkbook control versus basic custodial accounts.
