 THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA
 In The Court of Appeals

 Sarah Jo Gaylord, Respondent,

 v.

 Jules Robert Duncan Gaylord, Appellant.

 Appellate Case No. 2011-186667

 Appeal From Georgetown County
 Jan Bromell Holmes, Family Court Judge

 Unpublished Opinion No. 2012-UP-571
 Heard September 12, 2012 – Filed October 24, 2012

 AFFIRMED

 G. Robin Alley, of Isaacs & Alley, LLC, of Columbia,
 for Appellant.

 Anne E. Janes and M. Elizabeth Snyder, both of Sherrill
 & Janes, PA, of Surfside Beach, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: In this appeal from a final order of divorce, Appellant Jules
Robert Duncan Gaylord (Husband) argues the family court erred in (1)
apportioning the marital estate between the parties; (2) finding the promissory
notes executed in favor of Husband's mother were unenforceable; (3) dividing the
 marital property in a manner that was arbitrary, inequitable, and unreasonable; (4)
qualifying Lee Camp as an expert in the appraisal of personal property; (5)
ordering Husband to pay all of Respondent Sarah Jo Gaylord's (Wife) attorney's
fees and costs; (6) finding Husband in willful contempt of court and providing the
sole remedy through which Husband could purge himself of contempt was
payment of $189,016.21 by Qualified Domestic Relations Order from his
retirement accounts; and (7) awarding Wife $2,500 per month in permanent
periodic alimony. We affirm.

1. As to whether the family court erred in apportioning the marital estate, we find
no abuse of discretion because the family court properly considered all fifteen
statutory factors and the apportionment was both fair and equitable. See Reiss v.
Reiss, 392 S.C. 198, 211, 708 S.E.2d 799, 806 (Ct. App. 2011) (\The
