I have heard plenty about predatory practices against men in courts in the US; whoever, and this goes to some of you that may have considered Latin America as a safe haven, the situation abroad is not necessarily great... a friend of mine moved to South America where he found a girlfriend, he decided to not get married and simply live with her, during that time he bought 3 houses with his savings accumulated since college as his way to sustain himself during his time abroad, to his surprise when his girlfriend decided to leave he was told that by living with her for two years in the same house the law gives her the same rights as if they were married and she had 50/50 ownership of his properties, bank accounts and everything else... Needless to say this dude is stuck in a legal battle to reclaim what is his just because he lived in the same house with his gf... So be aware, it’s not only the US, stay safe out there.
