Vermont Title 15 V.S.A. §751 authorizes courts to divide all property regardless of when it was acquired. Courts consider the length of the marriage, the age and health of parties, the occupation and sources of income, the vocational skills and employability of each party, contributions to the marriage including homemaking, and the opportunity for future acquisition of capital assets and income.
