I know a few people here in Cyprus who are here because they did not want to divorce (the other side made it clear it won't be amicable for them, with full intention of taking over all property). Instead, they just vanished to surface here :) (legal loopholes due to collisions between church vs civil marriage enables it to marry again while being married elsewhere). Of course, after that you got to be very careful about safeguarding your assets, but the infrastructure offered by this place - a former offshore tax haven - makes it easy even in much harder cases than "some dude who owes his wife an alimony".
