You could get married in your 20s or 30s , get married and still end up 50 and alone through divorce.

Your spouse God forbid could pass away

Your kids could not fukk with you

Why nikkas act like marriage is a cure for loneliness

Yeah I know for sure he has like 3 kids by a sista or some sistahs. I have seen all the kids and the mother (or one of the mothers).

But as he said that is true you can have all the accomplishments and money but it means nothing if you can't share it with others. Deion made a statement last year that was true when it came to how he looked out for all his friends especially them brothas he been coaching with since little league. Deion said something along the lines of who cares if you sitting on the mountain top if you sitting on the top of the mountain by yourself.

As a person who lost a child (wife lost the child while pregnant before covid) and I had to bury family members over the last 4 years it hits you fast to realize no matter how much money you got you can't change the fact that them folks gone from your life and never coming back. Makes you look at money and material things in a entire different light.
didnt know you lost a child. my condolences bro

Yeah I think the ideal is finding the right person to spend your life with rather than settling because you don't want to be alone. That's how a lot of people stay in marriages where the love is no longer there.

Not only that we aren't all built for marriage the thing is many people don't even know this and keep getting married lol.

Its all a case by case basis.


All in all I DO believe that marriage is the best avenue when it comes to raising and rearing of CHILDREN.


If no kids are involved and a man is gonna get snipped and not procreate then fine, do whatever you want.


But at the end of the day each person has to make their own decision

Damn, when he said he was a terrible brother, that got me with how obsessed he was with his job. Sterling was his inspiration growing up, and he still thought he was a terrible brother to him while he played? That's insane dedication.

what about the inverse … not getting married and not having kids is 100% chance you will be alone?

He is a top 5 percent earner and nothing similar to the average man in today's society. He has much more to lose if he did get married and ended up in a divorce with alimony and child support. Therefore, the more a man makes the more it makes it a high risk and low reward situation.

He also said football was #1 and that's grounds for divorce for many women but then he contradicts himself at the end talking about "sharing" when in reality its not but is a transfer of resources since 80 percent of divorces are initiated by women.
