I think it's good you will talk to a lawyer about this. I know you, and therefore I know that you are not a gold digger or even a money-centred person. A lot of women would not even have considered being with a man who made less money than them in the first place, or who spent too much, or whose income was not secure. Let alone paying for the marriage and honeymoon.


My point is that I understand why you didn't try for alimony or focus on his finances. And of course due to the biased legal advice.


You are 100% in the right in pursuing legal advice regarding his inheritance. I think he may have lied about his mother's financial condition, and that he knew he was getting that huge amount of money, and that is despicable if true. Ethics of whether you are "entitled to his future inheritance" seem weird here - we're not really talking about the future. We're talking about what he knew while you were still married, and if he declared it as he should have. And that he has received it while you are still legally married. And he knew that you lost your job. Ugh, what a jerk.
Thanks for this!
