• finding that because a medical degree/license was an intellectual attainment, personal to the holder, that could not be sold, transferred, pledged, or inherited, that it had no value on the open market and, therefore, was not marital property
• only items imbued with the traditional indicia of “property,” i.e., transferable, assignable, devisable, subject to conveyance, sale, pledge or inheritance, are proper subjects of equitable distribution
• A “spouse’s pension rights ... constitute a form of ‘marital property’ ... regardless of the type of retirement plan”
