I didn't want to quote the whole thing, but the part I did quote made me think "why get married in the first place?" Thanks TexTushHog for some sound reasoning.
Now on to the OP, in your original post you stated you weren't planning on getting a divorce, yet here you are, looking for ways to scam your wife. She may not have contributed financially to your household, but she contributed emotionally and as a wife (i.e. Probably cooked dinner at least once in all the years you've been married, and I'm sure you've had sex at least once).
So the real question, why are you preparing for divorce? You say you aren't, yet you're wanting to start the ball rolling. Do you think that as soon as she's got her degree that you helped pay for that she's going to leave you for some hot young college stud?
I'm just wondering.

LLC is likely irrelevant unless it predates the marriage and then only the return on capital invested pre-marriage is relevant, not your return on labor. And there are things you, your accountant, and your potential expert witness should have been tracking in the LLC every year.
