If I were you I would find a job and try to hide as much money as possible, preferably in cash out of the bank where it can't be traced.
This might not be legal.
You can keep it separate though.

The law is the law and if support is required, the judge has to order it.
While there may be some gender bias, the system has tried to make it a little bit more equal...

This statement is very inappropriate. While this may be what happened to CLD, it is not what happens to everyone.
Many men here have gotten custody of the children. If not full custody then 50/50.
We are here to provide the wisdom of our experiences and support.
We are not here to make blanket generalizations that may possibly create a fear situation in people. Or to look into our crystal ball and tell them exactly what their future will hold.
Cld...please be careful with your generalizations.
