Marriage has also become like a social status for women and I think that is corny as fukk. I already didn't want to be married but in recent years with how women treat marriage it made me not want to get married even more.

This is marriage in a nutshell. Cosplaying to the outside world as a perfectly happy couple while being miserable and sick of each other in private.
Some of us can handle our women's whimsical woes and emotions though. They get grumpy and look out the window all sad till they see you bought some food

Too many woman are getting paid off dudes they were just messing with for me to believe this. Dude stay getting their pockets ran while unmarried. Look at Shannon Shsrpe. I don’t know if he’s paid anything yet but I’m sure it’s going to happen. Like Nas said

You live with your babymoms and scared to make an honest woman out of her
And make her your bride, fake bytch you ain't even alive
At least I can say I tried plus enjoyed the ride

The irony is the dudes who sign off for his checks are likely married :sas1::sas2:
This.....

The entertainer/athlete class tends to hate marriage (not all of them) because they usually only want IG thots and "Real Housewives of Baldwin Hills" type women.

On top of that, most of them are brazen serial philanderers....so any woman they marry will catch them cheating within a year or two of marriage.

Like you said, the men signing their checks....the billionaire class, tends to be married. Even if they divorced, they get right back in the saddle and marry again. Those guys fukk around too, but they also marry smart women that see more value in building together than taking a janky little settlement and fukking cabana boys until they're 80.

Athletes & entertainers take pride in having multiple baby mommas. Barely involved outside of being an ATM. Wait until the kid shows promise (especially if they're athlete/entertainers) and then swoop in and try to claim the child like THEY were the ones comforting Little Junior when he had a cold or changing his poopy diapers.

Basically these dudes have money but can't access the right women. They settle for models and waitresses instead of CPA's, neurosurgeons and lawyers. Travis Kelce got the right idea with Tay-Tay. Get with someone that can enhance your situation.

The average man isnt paul pierce who has earned close to 100 million dollars in contracts throughout his playing career in the NBA, from his standpoint its not hard to understand why the risk of marriage trumps the benefits especially with the possibility of divorce etc, for the average man its another thing and perhaps there are different incentives
I think that's what he was referring to when said "poor people"

Paul Pierce lost his ESPN job because he got caught streaming a poker game that had hookers at it. Then went on to KG’s stream and started to brag about a hooker he had just met.
:comeon:
He can say whatever he wants but his counter argument to marriage is tricking. When he says “don't get married”, he should finish his thought and follow it with “because you can just rent a hooker”.
:flabbynsick:

The problem with society is too many people don’t do the math and don't really be hearing what these celebrities are offering. Tricking is not something that should be promoted as an alternative to marriage.

Why does US society listen to men who publicly whore themselves out to prostitutes?

Like Paul Pierce…like Trump

The Truth
Paul is OBVIOUSLY talking about himself…


And from his position he has a point. You talking about a dude thats been making the above average salary since graduating just to play a game…

And never seem to really grow up after that as well. But he’s not wrong in his case :manny:



But this is not advice for normal nikkas. But it is not bad advice if you come into or from wealth.



The irony is the dudes who sign off for his checks are likely married :sas1::sas2:
They’re old tho :ufdup:
