How to Not Pay Alimony

I just discovered a way for Florida men to divorce their wives without splitting half their assets with them.  Do what NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon did, risk your life to make your fortune:
Generally, Florida law requires assets amassed during a marriage to be split evenly, but Jeff Gordon contended he should not have to split the couple's estate because he risked his life to collect it.
According to this news report, courtesy of Yahoo, Gordon is worth nearly $49 million, but settled with his wife Brooke for about $15.3 mil.
