19. Update Your Insurance Policies
While married, you might have shared numerous insurance policies with your spouse, including auto, home, health, and life insurance. All of these policies should be amended, updated or canceled, depending on your specific circumstances.

At the very least, be sure to update the beneficiary sections of your policies to eliminate your ex-spouse.
