Check the laws of the state you’re in, but generally income earned during marriage is considered marital assets that would have to be split upon divorce. So this isn’t the fast one you think you pulled.

This is clearly a troll.
I am not a troll. My husband is a professor. To me this is a hobby job because he could 3-10x his income in the private sector if he felt like it. But he doesn’t feel like it when I make everything possible at the expense of my health and ability to be a good parent.

I am typing from my phone so that I don’t type this from my work computer, and so I’m taking shortcuts.
I connected a personal account instead of joint account, and yes I will still do my job, but if I get a message from daycare that my daughter smeared poop in the bathroom, I am going to stop what I am doing and research OTs and make an appointment and take her. I am going to shower once a day and do my nails. I am going to meal plan and grocery shop. And if my work performance drops I am not going to worry about it or care about my annual performance review.

You should downsize your house and other expenses now. Your dh's hobby job salary will have to support you all for a long time, apparently. Good luck.
I offered to move back into a rental house we own to lower our expenses. He declined.
