You were not the one managing the money
For most of the marriage, someone else handled this. Now you are expected to make decisions about accounts you have never seen.
That is a common position and not a disadvantage, as long as you get the picture built properly before anything is agreed.
We inventory what exists, explain what each piece actually means for you, and translate the proposals in front of you into plain language.
What usually needs answering
- You do not know what accounts exist or what they hold
- Terms in the documents that nobody has explained
- Worry about agreeing to something you do not understand
- Uncertainty about what your income will be afterward
