NO more humor... just more tragic, sad, sick, twisted goings ons - Sorry |
Hopefully you've read about the house that colasped in New York. Well that house ended up being more valuable than the people who lived in it, and I'm not talking about dollar values here either... in New York it goes without saying property values are ridiculous! When brick and mortar become more important than people and their relationships with family members it's sad and sick. But I'm thinking this is how too many marriages are ending. Marriage seems to be turning into some kind of future savings account for whichever party, husband or wife, who convinces the courts of their entitlement. A marriage is in shambles. All is lost over the value of a piece of property, a home if you will, in order to pay alimony and divide the marital assets. Tragic! Tragic that it seems that one or the other spouse values property over people. Luckily no innocent bystanders were seriously injured or killed as the house blew up. Who profits from divorce? Lawyers! The lawyers get paid regardless. As much as money can make a person's life comfortable, it seems to me that its better not to have so much money. Better to live happily poor, than miserably wealthy.
