    Marrying for love is dumb

    Marrying for kids is dumb

    Marrying to protect your inheritance you intend to pass on and your kid's future wealth, however, is smart.

    ...SO BY YOUR THEORY. . U WOULD LEAVE YOUR HUSBAND FOR THE NEXT NGA THAT CAN OFFER U MORE MONEY AND SECURITY? ?..

    U REALLY ARE A THOT HUH..

    So what does wanting to protect the inheritance I intend to leave to my son have to do with leaving my husband for a man with more money???

    Do you know what a theory is?

    WHAT DOES YOUR HUSBAND HAVE TO DO WITH AN INHERITANCE IN THE 1ST PLACE?.. IF U LEAVIN IT FOR YOUR SON, YOU AINT HAVE TO MARRY IN THE 1ST PLACE

    Who's to say that someone who marries for love won't find someone else whom they Love more or will lieave for someo one who will Love them better.
    HAHHAA

    IF TWO PEOPLE TRUUUEELY LOVE EACH OTHER, THEY AINT OUT LOOKIN FOR SOMEONE WHO CAN DO BETTER!

    THAT AINT LOVE IF YOU ALWAYS LOOKIN FOR AN UPGRADE

    How much are you insured for?

    Quarter mill through marriage, 150k on my own. And I plan on increasing that in a few yrs.

    If I can't give my kid anything in life, I'll make it rain on him in death

    @ATL_DRO‌

    I don't want to put words in her mouth, but I think her point is that just because you love a person, that doesn't mean getting married is a good idea. And that love between two people who are not married isn't any less valid than if they were married.

    THATS FINE... BUT WHY SHOULD MONEY BE VALUED MORE THAN LOVE??

    BUT THATS HER/YALL...

    IF YALL LIVE YALL LIFE LIKE THAT, THEN GO HEAD

    Who said they value money more than love? I don't think anyone said that. The question is which is a better reason to get married.The answer is clearly money. Marriage actually has a tangible effect on money. It has no tangible effect on love.

    My son stands to inherit a few properties, businesses, and money from his paternal side of the family. He will also inherit whatever we accrue and our insurance funds when we die. A much easier process when a child is legitimate and born in marriage.

    Contrastingly, I was born out of wedlock so when my dad kicks the bucket, I probably wont get anything unless I prove my paternity and fight my sisters in court for my piece of the pie.

    the point of marriage is to take ur relationship to a higher level and/or prove ur love for ur s/o as greater than ur love for others

    Lol, no.

    Why should you have to prove that to anyone? Your SO should know that and who gives a damn what anyone else thinks?

    And marriage doesnt take your relationship to a higher level. It just makes the relationship legally binding.

    many women have been my girlfriends, but only one has been my wife

    Many ? have told you "i love you", but how many has told you "I do"?

    I think Marriage is necessary, Abet, not for me as far as the near future is concerned.

    Those who can effectively make marriage a functional part of the rest of their life… I believe, will fair better overall. My definition of marriage is a document, on record, identifying 2 people who are devoted to each others well being on all levels.

    When you are contractually obligated to a situation… Even when you willingly enter into such an agreement, its a certain amount of pressure involved in maintaining your end of the bargain.

    Those who can rise above the pressure that comes with publicly exposing their attempt at an eternal union, place themselves at an advantage imo.

    I personally think it takes a lot of guts to admit to the world, and your family, that you intend to be with one person for the rest of your known existence, cause we all know how spontaneous, volatile and emotional humans can be.

    That's utterly ridiculous as the head of a house hold to not be concerned with gaining, retaining and then ultimately being able to putt your offspring in a position to succeed in life. Protecting, one's assets and or perhaps gaining more wealth via marriage is an extremely intelligent way to approach marriage.

    Ones religion dictating marriage is mostly based on the Moral concept that a cohesive family will lead to a stronger community and greater society. Placing value on creating a Union which is to be made public where a person can be held accountable for his or her actions is intelligent and logical. Lastly the spiritual aspect of marriage as mandated by some religions is for two people that have the same beliefs to uplift each other and remind each other of their religious duty to their ? , Family, Wife and Community.

    So, nothing emotional about either of the reasons you posted. And certainly are great foundations in which to build a marriage and family from.


    Now getting married because, the ? got a fat ass

    Cause you Love her.

    Cause the ? got the best head. That's emotional.

    To be honest fam, I don't even know what you're trying to say here. Are you agreeing or disagreeing?

    i think fam typing just to type..

    Yall ? ain't ballin like that to be talkin about inheritance. $1,000,000 is NOT a lot of money in The U.S. so that argument is dead. That ? will be gone in 10-11 years (IF it even lasts that long)



    Yall listen to Charlamagne and Tank all yall want to. Them ? got relationships and images to protect.

    And I understand where they're coming from but neither one of them sound like Grown Men in that regard, they sound like Grown Babies who don't wanna take responsibility who were probably lying/sysin it in tha first place

    A million dollars would last a long time if people budgeted it

    Spending 50,000 a year it would last 20 years

    That's significantly higher than the average yearly income. if one limited their spending to 30k a year it would last 33 years

    So I don't wanna throw shade on my boo right. But check this out. And itz only 1 example and just kno I have plenty of others on this subject and more.



    *its kinda lengthy but not really*
    But I be followin Marie Luv (the Pornstar) on Twitter & IG and I be seein how the life of a Pornstar/Professional ? is right. Not to save her (even tho I would) and definitely not to Simp (couldn't do it). Its just for research purposes. So let me put that Disclaimer up before the trolls go on full beast mode lol


    So I be seein her and how close she is with her Poodle and how "good" she's living and how her pysche is and who her friends are and how they get along and ? like that right. Just to see if a Hoe is really a Hoe and if they're all tha same.


    And let me tell u. She's sad in real life foreal. I know I don't know her but yall gotta understand that my Troll Game is A-1 & that I have a thirst to learn.

    Her best friend (Mya G) is in a good relationship with some ? . Her real life companion is a Poodle, really tho, an Animal smh. And her only real Lover is someone of the same sex who's in tha same business that has a forehead that would make Rihanna blush.


    Babygurl has dubbed herself a "Professional Wallet ? " and I get tha humor in it but that's really wat she's syking herself up to be until she can ? no more. I don't believe she's bitter (well maybe a llittle bit) but as I observe her while I'm lurking you can tell she's got a little something that's missing on tha inside.


    Keep in mind she's been selling Sex since a Teen and now she's in her 30's. She's everything yall claim yall wanna be but behind closed doors she's Empty on the inside. She's still a sweetheart and very down to earth but she's got a 4th Hole. If that's how u wanna end up just for the sake of Sex with somebody new then do u. But that lifestyle isn't that glamorous


    She lives alone in an Apartment in Miami and drives a fairly decent Mercedes Benz. She has no children, no Man, her dating prospects have somewhat lessened becuz she ? on camera.



    And before you say "well she's a ? , well she ? on camera, and blah blah blah". She's no different than the Man or Woman who lives that life but chose a different career path. I can garantee that you'll end up tha same way.

    Don't forget I have other examples from people who walk different paths in life too

    50G's ain't ? dogg. Ain't nobody tryna live in no Condo or 1-Story house for the rest if their life. Sure you could supplement it with a real job but you'd need to make 150k to truly live that real middle class Experience. And if you're just settling for the middle class lifestyle then that says a lot about you and how much experience you have with money.


    Having real money is 6 mill or better and you'd have to have atleast 6-figures coming in yearly for tha rest of your life.

    Sure one could live on 25K a year but that's living like Anything.




    I'm really about that life. I don't just talk to sound good

    money cant buy happiness...but neither can a man

    i cosign that she may be lonely from what you posted however she may not be...maybe she likes living her life thhe way she lives is...single sexy and free...pays to get ? and so forth

    yes sex is deep when it comes to women...everytime when a man enters a woman he takes a part of her soul and leaves his...maybe she is so empty in emotionally connection towards men that her mindframe when it comes to them is just "strictly" business? theres nothing wrong with that as long as she is happpy....ur judging her from the outside trying to look in and havent even met the woman

    hell ppl on here think im some nasty ass ? on the world and ? degreading ? cause i had 3 abortions by my baby dad and i have a few nude pics floating around and i cuss everybody out on here but thas not the case

    Nah boo. I never said Money buys happiness and I never said just settling for anybody will either.


    "maybe she is so empty in emotionally connection towards men that her mindframe when it comes to them is just "strictly" business? theres nothing wrong with that"


    Nah bae, there is something wrong with that. That's a pure example of a Traumatized Individual. A ? is still a ? regardless of who it is. That's like saying, "its cool that I'm a crackhead. As long as I ain't hurtin anybody then its all gravy"




    And I don't need to know a person's life story or be around them everyday to look into their Soul. Its not that hard really.


    I don't kno what she's doing Off Camera or what she REALLY thinks in her head but telling by her actions she might be smiling & laughing but I doubt she's happy and fulfilled. You can't live that type of life and be that way. Something has to give in order for a Balance. The most u can gain from that iz Temporary Happiness. Unless you're a certified clinical Nymphomaniac which is a whole different type of beast

    I did agree with some things Tank said today on The Breakfast Club.


    One of which is, we have to stop lying to ourselves. We already know wat it be

    And another Is we have to have to have an Understanding.


    But again, keep in mind. He's a Celebrity and an Entertainer. He doesn't live Regular

    How can there be a point of marriage when it is a made up tradition? If you want to get to know some one deep you can do it with out the contract...the contract only invites the negative. You call yourselfs men because you got married or have a kid? But you are really cowards who didn't have the patience and insights to conquer your own flaws, so you went seeking outside yourself to find help. I ain't saying nothing wrong with having kids or a family, but my point is you don't need the hassle of a contract to get to know some one. And Men and Women need to start conquering themselves instead of finding things outside of you that will. No one can make you happy but yourself, man up cowards
