the length of the marriage;
-
the age and health of the spouses;
-
how and by whom the property was acquired;
-
the conduct of the spouses during the marriage as it relates to the disposition of their property;
-
the present and future earning capacity of the spouses;
-
family ties and obligations;
-
any dissipation of assets by a spouse; the tax consequences of property distribution;
-
any other factor necessary to do equity and justice between the spouses;
-
the property owned by the parties; and
