Thread: The Economic of Marriage (Misses the Root Cause of the Problem)

The marriage rate in the United States has fallen to the lowest level ever recorded. So why is this happening?

Not one word about men no longer wanting to marry because of the extreme financial risk associated with signing a contract of marriage.

83% of 30- to 50-year-old men in the top 10% of annual earnings are married today, whereas only 64% of median earners and half of those in the bottom 25th percentile are hitched.

Of the 925 single women surveyed, 75 percent said they'd have a problem with dating someone without a job. Only 4 percent of respondents asked whether they would go out with an unemployed man answered "of course."

"Not having a job will definitely make it harder for men to date someone they don't already know," Irene LaCota, a spokesperson for It's Just Lunch, said in a press release. "This is the rare area, compared to other topics we've done surveys on, where women's old-fashioned beliefs about sex roles seem to apply."

Confirmed - Women are all essentially gold digging whores........but the author of course does not state that obvious fact.

100 years ago, 4.52 people were living in the average U.S. household, but now the average U.S. household only consists of 2.59 people.

That is an astounding figure.


And the United States has the highest percentage of one person households on the entire planet.

Not one word about the negative impact that feminism has had on the decline of the family.


Hey Ladies.......here is the true "Economics of Marriage"......YOUR NOT WORTH THE RISK.

The Economics Of Marriage

I found the above article on ZeroHedge which is a site I use typically for financial information. The comments on the article are very MGTOW...........

From a guy getting ready to meet his maker (with regard to divorce settlement), believe me, this is real. I came into it with a 7 figure net worth and the first thing I did was to pay off her CC and buy her a car. She didn't work, did whatever she wanted, spent whatever she wanted, we traveled whenever and wherever she wanted then had a kid that we both stayed at home and raised. 13 years later, I get an email an hour after she leaves to bring child to school, she doesn't come back. Now, she wants half of everything she did nothing to earn, and guess what? The gov't agrees with her!

My advice to any guy out there, fuck them but don't marry them. NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY OR PROMISE! It's all bullshit because the laws don't hold them accountable for any of their actions! You are NOTHING but a meal ticket to her and the gov't.


Guys have absolutely no one in gov't that advocates for fairness in divorce settlements. The gov't does NOT want these women back on the "dole" so takes all that they can from you to ensure these deadbeats don't ever show up on their door step. Instead of my ex thanking me for taking care of her for 13 years in a way that she could never have afforded, I'm getting shit on for not being totally receptive to taking care of her for the next 40 years in the same lifestyle she enjoyed while being married. Unfucking real the entitlement. All I can really say is that you guys (collectively) CAN NOT marry someone under these draconian marriage/divorce laws!!!!! Don't do it! Your life's work will be wiped out and given away by the state!


Shack up, fool around, have a baby out of wedlock, do whatever you want but under NO CIRCUMSTANCE should you say "I DO" unless you have absolutely NOTHING that she and the gov't can take from you. Starve the system!

I haven't seen it, but I can tell everyone here why many men will have nothing to do with marriage. It's because of NO FAULT DIVORCE. 66% of divorces are initiated by women. This article was right about money, but only superficially. Men absolutely don't want to marry what amounts to a 'State Sponsored Prostitute'. Then there's child support payments, if they have a kid. On top of that, the MSM constantly tells us how all of women's problems are caused by a man somewhere. This helps contribute to the high divorce rate. I find it interesting that this article used 1970 for comparison, but didn't mention that was the first year of no fault's in California. In '70, only 4.8% of men over 40 were never married. Now, it's 20%. I'm one of them. I have 2 other men in my family, of my generation and single, who feel the same way. We've seen the carnage up close, and want no part of it! I honestly don't know why 80% of men are still willing to risk it. If you don't want to ever have anything to call your own, get married. If you want to be cleaned out and potentially be put in jail, get married.

The family has been marginalized by the gov. via no faults and welfare payments, not irresponsible men. The men are the only ones acting rationally(not nearly enough of them, IMO), in response to a predatory gov.

Ever since no fault divorces were started, marriage has become a state sponsored shakedown of men. Don't be stupid enough to enter into a contract that could be broken at any time, on a whim. It's no longer a valid contract. It's closer to 'State Sponsored Prostitution'. Bring back real prostitution, it's far more honest and cheaper.

That's a good start, but it's just that.

To the single guys reading this, let me make it simple for you: DON'T EVER FUCKING GET MARRIED!!!

Right around in there 50's men say fuck this shit. Women between 45 and 60 are nuroitic nut jobs.

Good to see some red pills scattered in other places besides the hard manosphere.

the United States has the highest percentage of one person households on the entire planet.

I happily contribute to that statistic. GMOW = solitude and silence, uninterrupted by cunts.
