Tell your buddy eventually he can divorce this bitch and if she makes more than him, she'll be paying him alimony and because she's never around, he stands a decent chance of getting custody and some child support. At worst he'll get joint custody so she'll need to choose between her kids and her job if she wants to ever see her kids. He would then get some free time to go out and smash some strange with you. Dumb career bitches.
I was wondering about this. Who has a better chance of getting custody in a divorce: (1) a guy who works hard to support his family, but then gets cheated on by his housewife and divorced by her because she wants to be able to devote herself to riding the carousel in the (formerly) marital home; or (2) a guy who gets fired from his job and divorced by his wife because she thinks he's lazy and a loser?
The second guy is able to stay home with the kids because he has no job, so does that make him more likely to get custody? If so, it makes me wonder: why bother, as a man, having your shit together and keeping it together? The more you have, the more your wife can take from you. If you have nothing, then her only reason to leave is if there's some other guy who can give her more than what you have to offer. But losing the kids might be more of a sacrifice than she's willing to make in order to jump ship. (Also, even if she could get the kids, as a single mom, she'd have a harder time snagging some new beta bux; on the other hand, if she could divorce a responsible breadwinner and collect child support and the marital home from him, that would free her to bang alphas.)
I was thinking about this lately with regard to Adam Mark Smith, the
million dollar cup of water guy. People were commenting that his wife should've left him and taken the kids, because it was irresponsible of him to put his career in jeopardy by putting a video on YouTube of his urging a Chick-Fil-A worker to go work for a less homophobic employer. But, since he lost his job, that relegated him to loser status which, while it might give his wife more of a reason to leave him, could also make her lose the kids in a divorce, if he has become their primary caregiver.
More and more, it seems like being a loser isn't such a bad idea for a man. With all these benefits like free universal healthcare, and free college for your kids, why bother earning any money to pay your own way and that of your family? It just means you're going to be the chump who's subsidizing someone else's family, rather than the guy who sits back and enjoys the benefits of the welfare state.
As Adam Mark Smith found out, you also lose your ability to speak freely when you have a job. So there's just one disadvantage after another to having a job. It's starting to seem like the only reason to work is if you actually like your job enough that it's worth everything you have to give up in order to be employed. If you decide not to work, though, there's always some way that you can spin your choice to sound admirable, e.g., "I decided that spending time with my kids and fighting for social justice were more important than wasting my life toiling in an office to make the 1% richer. YOLO."
