Why is this exception being thrown

Question

Everytime this piece of code is run we get this Exception. Is there a way to avoid that at all. Though it is being handled properly but it would still be better if this could be avoided. Any ideas
JavaDeveloper mspete = JavaDeveloper().getInstance();
try{
mspete.setJob(new Job(goodWages));
mspete.setHouse(new House(4BDRM));
mspete.getHouse.add(Wife);
mspete.getHouse.add(Kids);
mspete.setMood(Feelin.GOOD);
catch(LayedOffDueToOffShoreDevelopmentException){
RepoMan reaper = new RepoMan();
reaper.take(mspete.getHouse());
mspete.setHouse(new House(BOX));
mspete.lose(Wife,Kids);
mspete.get(Shotgun);
mspete.shoot(mspete);

Answer 1

Try mspete.clone() cus that almost equals me, my error handling weren't quite as extreme though. Mine was more like
if(mspete.clone() instanceof Rob) {
  Rob rob = (Rob)mspete.clone();
  pub.go();
  rob.drink(pub.buyLotsOfBeer());
  rob.fallOverDrunk();
}Rob.
