Marriage, just don't

  1. Interesting thing happened last week at the store.

    Female came in wanted to sell some stuff the offer given was not enough to get a deal done. A few personal questions were directed to me:

    "Do you have a girlfriend?" Customer

    "No." Me

    Do you have a wife?" Customer

    "No." Me

    "I have no liabilities, no credit card debt, no loans, no alimoney, no child support payments. I Ilike to keep things so that I am free and clear." Me

    "So you have money then?" Customer

    "No, I have no debt. Having money means you have liquid assets of over 1 million." Me

    "Oh." Customer

    When it comes down to it alot of women know if they trap a man they can extract wealth from them. The US legal system is set for them and they can use men as a means of wealth generation. Women know that if they can trick a man into marring them they can get half the wealth of the easte reguardless of what the mass media states. As a man I would rather go to the Mustang Ranch to take care of bussiness, at least I know what I am getting into. Dating and marriage are not relivent in todays society. Women do not need men to make a living. Only certain men need a companion occasionally.

    Certainly not.

    But, in my view, gold diggers tend to gravitate to guys who are naive (usually very young and inexperienced) or to those who have nothing to offer but money (and usually not that much anyway, which is part of their problem).

    Successful guys with their head on their shoulders have no problem meeting women who're interested in them, not their wallets; and when they come across some gold-diggers they can spot them before they get (financially or otherwise) hurt badly.

    Now, flash your wealth (attract the whores), act like a dick (drive off the good ones) and you're asking for trouble.

    In regards to some posts talking about how the legal system is in favor of women -



    I understand all of your gripes certainly. However this thought is simply hyperbole. Even if it is arguably in favor of women, a great attorney can not only destroy this edge, but put "her" in the worst fucking position in the world.

    Recall Elon Musk and his divorce in the 90s (I don't expect anyone to know about it!:):p) - his former literally did not get a dime from him, thanks to his lawyer and planning ahead.

    There's nothing in the world like a great attorney.

  8. Exactly. Ask Silvio Berlusconi, former premier of Italy.
    He has DOZENS.

    read the details
    "Deadspin explains that the Hulkster will get to keep any money he earns from personal appearances and will not have to pay alimony."

    it is done and finished unlike most divorces
    this is the way it should be.

    there is nothing as it should be in that divorce. Hogan probably took 20 years off his life trying to make a name for himself and the government gives 70% to his ex. It makes marriage a joke and creates monsters.
