Living the life of a bachelor or family man
So what would u rather live
pros and cons of both
bachelor
pros:
-all your income goes to your living needs and your toys
-ability to have many girlfriends and continue having fresh "meat" on a regular basis
-envy of friends, answering to no one, partying and having fun
-vacations
-ability to become quite well-off even on a low-income job because of the lack of mouths to feed
cons:
no traditional family to come home to
-kids, whether u think its a good or bad thing, no legacy to follow in your footsteps
-comfortable living conditions, wife that hopefully will help makes things easier as far as cooking, cleaning, laundrey is concerned
-party life will probably get boring after some time
family man
pros
-pretty much what i said above, youve got a family to come home to, a kid to raise as your own, little leagues to participate in
-nice house, dual income if the wife works
cons
-divorce, paying half ur assets out, paying child support for the rest of ur life
-boredom, being with the same person for the rest of your life
-little to no free money as most of it is tied up for a purpose, mortgage, child education etc.

The key is to reject the marriage tradition...
Yet live your life with someone you love...

Me single and me like it now.
In future, I'll settle down.
I like to travel, so solo, is the best way for now.

bachelor
pros:
-all your income goes to your living needs and your toys
Got that right.
-ability to have many girlfriends and continue having fresh "meat" on a regular basis
Sure, why not. I hear it indeed does happen out there somewhere.
-envy of friends, answering to no one, partying and having fun
-vacations
Got that right again
-ability to become quite well-off even on a low-income job because of the lack of mouths to feed
You're on a roll here, bro. I'll retire with a few million thanks to realizing all of this and getting with my financial consultant early on. Ah, the power of compound interest
cons:
-no traditional family to come home to
But you come home to peace and quiet. Thats a good trade off to me personaly
-kids, whether u think its a good or bad thing, no legacy to follow in your footsteps
Doesnt matter to me in the slightest
-comfortable living conditions, wife that hopefully will help makes things easier as far as cooking, cleaning, laundrey is concerned
Show me where to find a woman like this - no, not one who SAYS she is like this, but someone who actually IS - and I MIGHT reconsider my positions
-party life will probably get boring after some time
Im 40 and it has not yet. Thats why we have Seppuku when it does, though
family man
pros
-pretty much what i said above, youve got a family to come home to, a kid to raise as your own, little leagues to participate in
Sorry, I personaly dont see any cons here. Just speaking for myself.
-nice house, dual income if the wife works
Nice house anyways due to all thats stated above.......Still failing to see a pro here.
cons
-divorce, paying half ur assets out, paying child support for the rest of ur life
Bingo. Im not a gambling man on certain things. This being one of them
-boredom, being with the same person for the rest of your life
Despite my positions above, I dont see how spending the rest of your life with the same person can be boring if you trully love her. Just speaking for myself again.
-little to no free money as most of it is tied up for a purpose, mortgage, child education etc.
Alrighty, you got back on track. Bingo again.

I hope I am never a huseband.
I plan to be a great husband when I decide to get married. My comment was half joking. I will not have a family if that means to sacrafice my own life and the things I enjoy. So basically if I am not in a financial state to support a family properly and still be able to have things I want then I will not get married and have children. IF I do find Ms Right and get married I would not go into that with hopes to sleep with other women etc...

I love how everyones automatic belief is that theyll be married in the future -
Like you can't make a commitment strong enough to someone
you love, and convince them you mean it, so that they don't
need a license to be satisfied of your convictions...
TOTAL BULLSHIT

In all seriousness, I'm more than willing to get married and live the family life.
..Assuming I find a good chick.
For me, marraige material must have 3 qualities.
1. I must be attracted to her
2. She has to be nice (not a bitch like most women)
3. She has to be fun/cool (someone with some personality)
There's plenty of good looking girls who are nice, but boring or cool but bitches. Just as there are plenty of nice girls and cool girl who aren't attractive.
"Good" girls (3/3) are practically extinct.......
Which is why right now I don't loooooooove you hoes.

I find it funny the Majority of proposals are made by the male....and the majority of divorces are made by the women. With the divorce rate so high that should make a guy think twice about asking for someones hand....cause that same sweet girl is likely to be asking you for a big chunk of your paycheck and what you own sometime down the road when she is not happy with you anymore....so much for until death do we part.

Exactly!
Not all, but most, are conniving, vindictive, way overanalytical and talk shit behind everyone's back.
The funny thing is when you ask a woman if women are like that, they agree

never been married. All my friends have. All divorced.
Not in all cases...but it seems men in general..get fuqqed in divorce court.
I think the divorce laws are antiquated. Based on the single income of the 50's?
I don't believe in alimony. if I get married, the woman I meet will be working as a professional...and most likely earns a good 'wage'...the last 3 women I date actually made more $$ than I did.
I belive in common sense. You come into marriage w/ what you have..and if you get divorced...you take that...and any interest THAT it made. Same for the spouse. Divide the combined assets either 3 ways:
1) just no longer want to be married - split assets in 1/2
2) and 3) if infedelity / cruelty (proven) or other 'deal breaker'...70 - 30 tothe 'victim'
Children / child support would be a separate issue.
I may be WAY of base here....as I haven't any experience in marriage...
