If I were you, I'd be out looking for a job every second, and in the mean time I'd find a maybe a straight job that pays you a wage so that you can take care of your family.
I'm not going to tell you to forget recording, but it's time to man up, if you have a family THAT is your number one priority, unless your lucky enough that
your wife makes great money and can support you and your family through this. People in the arts have to take other gigs to earn a living all the time, it's often the downside of trying to earn a living doing what you love. When I was a young guitar player, when I was out of a gig I took straight jobs whenever I had to. I wish there was an easy answer, but the truth is the world has gone to hell, and especially the record business. I hate to say it but the likelihood that your boss is ever going to pay you is probably shrinking by the day. I wish you all the best.
