CLC2008 Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 There's a movie that was made a few years ago covering this exact topic... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJuB3x_3qwQ
meerkat stew Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 and angry at myself for being so weak. haha, yet we are right back in there every frickin tuesday, like horse race junkies at the OTB, hoping for a winner... unless we are smart and have netflix.
meerkat stew Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 There's a movie that was made a few years ago covering this exact topic... Wow that movie brings back some memories. I sold a woman to some Arabs in Dubai for a pack of clove cigarettes once. She got really upset when they busted in the hotel room that night to get her, all screaming, such a drama queen. She had smoked half the cigs herself even. I know, I know, I should have told her I'd done it that day when she came back out of the bathroom at lunch and wondered where the cool exotic cigs came from, but she probably would have wanted -all- the cigs for herself then. She was selfish like that. That was 1985. She friended me the other day on facebook, or at least I think it was her, an arab version of her name, couldn't see her face that well through the burka. Gotta tell ya'll the pain meds for a fractured tailbone are great.
InspiredbyYou Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Pahahahaha well that's understandable clove ciggies are da'bomb. Heck I'd even take up smoking again just to have a clove ciggie, in a hookah of course... But I don't think I could sell a woman, that's where I draw the line. That and Kevin James movies.

meerkat stew Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 who is kevin james? EDIT o wait, king o queens ahhhhh
dazzle22 Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 This sounds like the plot line of Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Nile"... I don't think it is ever wise to be a "user" of other people. Karma will always come around and take a really big chunk out of your butt!!
meerkat stew Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 You sold a woman?...Well two points for team money I guess. Nah, I mean I really, really LOVED that woman, y'know? They tried to get me to take half a pack and I was like "no way full pack or nothin, she's my soulmate, we've been together TEN YEARS, can't let her go for less n that."
Citizen Erased Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Money is always lovely to have but it isn't what satisfies me. I was brought up rather well, not rich by any means but I certainly never wanted for anything. I would visit my friends houses, some had a lot less than I was provided with, their homes were warm and friendly and they were loved. I was the one that was envious. And now, with relationships, I'd much rather be with someone that I love and that loved me in return than essentially settle for someone because they could buy me nice things.
InspiredbyYou Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Sunshine94 online you will find a million companies like this one that advice wealthy individuals on how to offshore their assets, in particular if they are going through a divorce. With Belize Gibraltar and Panama leading the way for most common locations. If like in the case of the OP all this was done from St. Maarten then... goodnight! Done deal. http://tax-consulting-online.com/assett_bank.html Like Donnamaybe said earlier, people who run in wealthy circles know of this more. (sorry if those were not your exact words Donnamaybe ;-)
woopster638 Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Cos I'mma tell you like wu told me, Cash rules everything around me, Singin' dollar dollar bill yall(dollar, dollar bill yall) .. Singin' dollar dollar bill yall(dollar, dollar bill yall)

MissJoness Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Hmm really hard because with a ton of money I can get plastic surgery to change what I want about myself
Leonard Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 i would choose some chick who is rich then divorce her after a few years, take half her money and then look for true love Now that's what I call excellent planning!
aerogurl87 Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Love because money doesn't listen to me when I'm rambling on about my horrible day at work. Money doesn't hold me when I'm sad. And money doesn't know how to kiss me to the point where I feel light headed and want to go do something crazy like dance in the rain in the middle of the night.
aerogurl87 Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Cos I'mma tell you like wu told me, Cash rules everything around me, Singin' dollar dollar bill yall(dollar, dollar bill yall) .. Singin' dollar dollar bill yall(dollar, dollar bill yall) Lol I used to love that song.
mixwell Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Man this one is kinda tough.. In certain conditions I would choose one over the other.. If you just came up to me (being a single guy) and said here is 20 million dollars or you can be with this chick and fall in love I don't know what I would choose. Money is VERY mind altering in situations. I would for sure pick love if I was making enough money to live a satisfying life but if I were dirt poor and struggling to get by I may choose money. If I loved someone deeply and was put in this situation I could see (as a guy) offering a hard choice to my mate to suck it up in order for both of us to live a better life but if the shoe was on the other foot I would say F that.. I couldn't be with a girl and let her be with some guy in order for us to come up and live better so I can see both sides of the guys point but I bet if the poster was in the opposite shoe of her b/f would he be fine wit her marrying another guy/ sleeping with another guy to make some money ? I doubt he would be cool with it. That is a very difficult situation to be in.. Yea money doesn't buy love but it can surely distract you with a lot of fun toys
mixwell Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Cos I'mma tell you like wu told me, Cash rules everything around me, Singin' dollar dollar bill yall(dollar, dollar bill yall) .. Singin' dollar dollar bill yall(dollar, dollar bill yall) C.R.E.A.M.. haha I love that song and I love hip hop -=) nice post !!
mixwell Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 There's a movie that was made a few years ago covering this exact topic... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJuB3x_3qwQ That is a whole different situation.. I've asked my ex before if someone offered me 5 mil to sleep with another woman would she be ko0 with it.. I try to put myself in that situation being on the other end but I don't know. I mean being on the receiving end would suck but one it was done you'd be 5 mil richer and think if you broke up she/he would obviously sleep with their new partner.. In a situation like this as sleezy as it is I THINK (not in the position so I don't know how emotions would be) that I would go for it in order to have a better future.. I know that sounds soo sleezy but I don't know its such an odd position to be in.

I doubt he would be cool with it. I did ask my ex how he would feel if I had told him I wanted to get with a guy just for money so the two of us could have a better life. He said it is different for guys. It is ok for him to do it, but not ok for me to do it. That is such a wierd dubble standard.
Knossos Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Always choose money. You stand a better chance of gaining wealth than gaining love (even in a frakked-up economy).
