Bill Gates is getting divorced lmao

[Bible_Belt]

He built an empire by extorting customers into his crappy software, then used it to spy on them in every way possible. But now he is asking you to respect his privacy, ok?

 

[EyeBRollin]

oh fvck off lol

It is a simple question. How does ones wife steal from them?

 

[Mister_Skinny_Jeanz]

these modern women act like children so technically its not divorce rape its child support

How does one walk and chew gum at the same time? Simple question...

 

[EyeBRollin]

Obviously EyeBRollin is suggesting that if you marry a chick you are willing to put up half your money as a gamble. It is your decision to do this, so if she takes it in divorce. Well that was your choice to gamble it. He's got a point. This just underlines DON'T CHOOSE TO GAMBLE HALF OF YOUR MONEY AND GET MARRIED!

I think a lot of modern men are too embittered to look at marriage for what it is; a legal union that is a necessary evil for raising children and having someone to give you meds when you’re too old and feeble to wipe your own ass.

If you don’t want kids, don’t get married.

Also, this idea that your wife is stealing assets from you is asinine. You know going in that if you marry a woman the household becomes shared and that includes money. If you want 100% of your own money for the rest of your life, don’t get married.

We know the terms going in. Guys need to stop bvtching about it. Some of y’all sound just as bad as women.

 

[EyeBRollin]

you are a partisan political ideologue and you are telling people to stop complaining and trying to fix things? Stop following politics then lol

What does my post have to do with politics?

What's wrong with wanting to get married though? The vast majority of men prefer a stable monogamous relationship, but does that mean we should get our clocks cleaned if it fails? I don't think so.

There is nothing wrong with getting married. It comes with risks. Accept them or not. Your choice.

 

[taiyuu_otoko]

Dude looks like a lady.

 

[bat soup]

Who's hating females? I seems most are hating on the family law system, NOT females.

Actually I think women deserve equality.

Therefore if they want billions of dollars they should earn it themselves.

It goes both ways. If you marry a billionaire you can divorce her and get half.

 

[bat soup]

Hypergamy doesn't allow that. I agree that a man should come to terms with what he is risking, but I also think that with how women have all the same opportunities that men have there is no reason why finances should be blended. It should be if you want a dual bank account anything in it is subject to splitting, but what ever is in your own savings, is yours.

The fair way to deal with it is that each person gets what they contributed. That should be the default.

This is beta as hell. Mans role is to protect and provide. That’s the responsibility we assume if we take on a wife and children. If you want to keep 100% of your wealth just don’t get married.

 

[Romanemp22]

I just saw this on IG. Hilarious. Gates is just a beta geek after all

Yes, beta geek who is fvcking half of the world

Yeah. Maybe alpha bros are the weak ones. That March in Washington last year couldn’t even succeed. Bunch of posturing failures

but is it fair though

 

[TheProspect]

I agree with the protect part, but why provide? I mean, it's not like women have to go out and kill mastadons. Provisioning is not a male centered activity anymore. Since most women are not traditional anymore why should men be?

Ideally you’d attract & maintain the interest of a traditional woman, and then marry her if for nothing else but providing the statistically best environment to raise kids in, then you’d want to at least have the means to provide for both her and your children indefinitely if tough times necessitate it.

If she’s a good lover, partner, and the mother of your kids, why wouldn’t you provide for her? Why would a woman, assuming she’s of quality, settle for a man who operates out of fear and whose afraid of providing for his family because he’s scared to lose some money?

That being said, there’s always an inherent risk in marriage. I understand the apprehension about it, especially given that the women worthy of marriage are few and far between... and even then the system is rigged in the woman’s favour in most cases.

This is why due diligence before such a commitment is essential. Most failed marriages I’ve observed the man admits to compromising by ignoring or minimizing red flags in the woman.

Will proper screening avoid a train wreck of a divorce? Obviously not, but nothing worth having is easily attained and completely risk free at that. Not like you take your money with you when you die anyway.

What makes you think one, she'll do it. Two, she'll stick around long enough for that lovely option of wiping your ass? Statistically speaking, it's a crap shot.

We should make a sticky on required reading for dudes.

My grandfather lived to be 85. Died in his sleep at home next to his wife. He was active and mobile till the day he died despite having a heart only working at 20% according to doctors. He didn’t work out or eat healthy.

point is: with modern medicine and a healthy lifestyle, you can be mobile and capable at an older age. Marriage isn't gonna save you from bad health.

people need to stop living in fear but act proactively.
