A lot of men deem that women only want money and that’s going to make them happy. There are a lot of sugar mamas out there too. The point that I was just trying to make that money isn’t everything in a relationship so we’re not all golddiggers and looking for that or some big CEO money is nice to have but at the end of the day it doesn’t satisfy everything Thank you everyone.
Gold diggers are real, I've even come across honest ones who admit they just want a rich dude. Having said that, to each their own. Also, they've been together for 27 years... It's my understanding that Bill and Melinda split over no longer having any common ground, especially politically. I can't say what brought them together, or held them together, and I'd rather not know, honestly... I heard that Bill has become far too "extreme" in the sense of behavior and association with certain groups/causes/individuals, even for her. It was my understanding that they used to have something of a middle of the road approach, investing or supporting causes across the board.
People need to understand money is a means to needs i. e. food, shelter and clothing and if you make enough for some perks.
Money can not buy you love, commitment, respect, trust and loyalty and it never will.
For those saying she's divorcing Bill for billions aren't being smart.
Melinda Gates has been super rich with Bill for almost 30 years. She has already experienced to what is to be rich. She could have divorced Bill 20 years ago and still receive a crazy amount of billions.
There’s been reports that she is actually way upset at him and how things are happening and the family I don’t know what happen we’re gonna know eventually
It's what people do. Guys that can't get in a relationship or keep one will say it's because women just want money, or you high standards, blah blah while ignoring women that aren't that way... Women say men just want sex, have too high standards yet Ignore the men who aren't that way.. To the money, money can buy you financial security, but it can't buy you love, or inner happiness... People think having fancy cars, fancy house, fancy lifestyle is what it takes to be happy. That's the fantasy tho of people that don't have that kind of money, but not always the reality for the people who do.
It is , she divorces him, she gets half his money. Plus they are only getting divorced because rumour is he was a friend of Jeffrey Epstein and if he goes prison she already have most of his assets so they can't be taken away.
It's what a lot of gulity men do they get there wife to divorce them so she can look after his money and assets whilst there in prison
Anyone that says that’s never been poor. Money buys stability and this directly translates into happiness. After a certain point it’s less effective but happiness is having money to eat well, vacation whenever, purchase needs and wants for a family, freedom from financial burden... money don’t buy happiness lmao. Ask your kids if they prefer to wear tattered 2nd hand cloths in public or nice new cloths... ask your wife if she wants a real diamond to show off or jewelry every now and then. Ask yourself if there’s anything you can buy right now that would make you happy...
@VanillaSalt If you don't have enough money to pay the bills, your life is miserable. And, yes, earlier, in my life, I was in that position on a few occasions. Getting money to pay the bills and put food on the table can put an end to those miseries, as I well remember, but happiness is not the same thing as an absence of misery and worry.
Life is defined by suffering. You struggle past to become more. Getting rid of misery completely will never happen. But having money can bring brief happiness.
@VanillaSalt The expression "money doesn't buy happiness" does not refer to the fleeting feeling of elation when a financial crisis is resolved. Most of us think of happiness as a long-tern emotional state.
I have an acquaintance who has a net worth of several million dollars and he was diagnosed with ALS around age 45. He lives in a big house, has nice cars, a maid, etc. I really don't think he's happy.
@VanillaSalt If you are poor, money buys your way out of the misery of poverty. And if you live in poverty, you might think that is enough to make you happy. But when you escape from poverty, you come to realize that it is not the same thing as happiness. If you have never been in that position, then I know that you can't understand or accept what I am saying.
Your playing with words now... technically happiness is different for each person. To the single man his happiness is in companionship. The poor man is financial relief. The millionaire it’s meaning... you can’t argue overall happiness because life isn’t simply happy or not. Money buys you the boat so you’re weekends are filled with fishing and fun. It may not buy you a good woman but it gives you the ability to treat her right which helps your case. Money means you don’t have to work all the time to make ends meet.
I apologize for being rude but the only people that think money don’t buy happiness are the people that don’t really remember struggling along without it or the fools that cling to pretty words and phrases without considering the alternative. So consider the alternative... would YOU be more happy or less if you were poor again? If you suggest you would be more happy or it wouldn’t matter I suggest professional help for your masochistic tendencies.
I can't speak for Bill and Melinda, but money has a way of corrupting you. It effects you almost like an addiction, causing you to start sacrificing time with loved ones, and things and activities that make you happy, just for the chance to get more money. And this world is set up in such a way that it actually encourages this to one degree or another. Yes money is important for things like bills and food, but don't forget that money is a double edged sword.
That's why a bit of that money already found it's way to her account. (https://www. vanityfair. com/style/2021/05/bill-and-melinda-gates-transfer-billions-stocks-after-filing-for-divorce) These guys raised 3 children, stayed together for 27 years and also built a foundation together where they worked for to become better people. How do you say that Bill Gates didn't keep her happy? because she's the one who filed for divorce. When she married him he was already worth 9 billion but they did not have any prenuptial agreement, but they had a separation contract. You're blaming everyone for the golddigger comments but the thing is that you making assumption about bill gates not caring enough doesn't help. As of now Melinda Gates seems to be a golddigger but that's why we should wait for things to unveil before creating theories. It's still too early to tell.
Money isn't everything, granted. But helps enormously on getting basically everything that is not actual affection. One of the reasons why people with money generally lie about their occupation. Especially men.
I assure you, though, that not having it is way worse than having it in troves.

So they are divorcing. So did Jeff Bezos and Kanye West. So what? Your point being exactly what? The people I know in reality divorced too and they aren't rich. None of them even make 50K. What is so special about them rich people divorcing that is not so special when the low class get a divorce? Is there something you're not telling us? Yes, Bill Gates has associated some business with Epstein despite being warned earlier by Melinda. For whatever reason, that we can't know. It might have been about the money, it might have been something else.
People keep saying money isn't everything until...
Then they call pharmacists and healthcare workers, the ONLY people, that can save or repair their own lives, scammers.
Again he has all the money in the world but they’re getting a divorce. That’s the whole point. A lot I’m in love to call women golddiggers but it’s not true
I repeat: I know people in reality making under 50K and some are even unemployed and have no degree in anything and have absolutely no plans with their life that got divorced. This is absolutely nothing special. I don't get what makes it so special when the rich do it. They do it too.
Is it also special when the rich drink clean water? Or eat a medium grilled stake? Or play golf? Why don't we say WOAH LOOK! Joey and Stacy over there are drinking clean water and eating a medium grilled steak and they plan to play golf!
When are heavy about how much a man makes. Good quality women generally won’t date a man that makes less then them or arnt hot. Women want men to provide so is exceptionally important up to a certain point. I can’t remember this point.
That being said the divorce between Gates and Bezos are stock manipulation. They can report it as a loss and avoid a sudden sellout which is illegal under certain circumstances. Be ready for the crash of the US dollar.
I know a couple of millionaires and neither is as happy as I am. They both have crappy marriages because they work all the time and spoiled , entitled kids. One guy has a picture of a cabin cruiser on his desk which he is too busy to use. I make enough money to be comfortable and my kids are well adjusted (as well adjusted as anyone can be) and doing well. My marriage is great and so is my health. I just left a well paying career to become a teacher. I decided I wanted to have a second act.

Men who attract golddiggers are low quality men. Women who marry such men cheat on them with hot men. I never understand why retards think women are blind and think they can attract young hot women with their money although they old and fugly but also suprised when these women are golddiggers and cheat on them with hot men. If you try to attract women with money, you get golddiggers. Wtf you expect. I never understand such stupid fugly old men who seriously expect women to love their personality but also only what young hot women
Maybe she didn’t keep him happy? But no, obviously money isn’t everything, but also she was rich either way, with or without him, she worked for MS for 27 years and was very high up in the company and she’s also a genius so... yeah...
As a person that knows how to use money efficiently even with low amounts of money, you make some very good points that I agree with. It really just depends on your perspective. Sure of course a new mansion and a Lamborghini will bring you loads of joy and happiness, but you can also find joy elsewhere such as nature and last time I checked taking hikes or sitting in a public park on a bench was free.
It's an interesting idea... 🤔 Although it's not iron clad as I personally know one relationship where it's not about love but leaning on their support as the love was gone. So I think each relationship could look and feel a little different from each other
I have not heard much about "why" she is leaving the marriage. I've heard that it had something to do with Bill Gates involvement with Jeffrey Epstein, and she is of course mad about that. However that is only speculation and I don't know that to be fact.
Anyway, they have so much money that even if hypothetically she just said, "just pay me one billion dollars and call it even", like, who couldn't live off of one billion... LOL!
Money buys your freedom and the power to be who you truly are, but in an amplified version. If you were an asshole before money, you’re going to be a bigger asshole with money. If you were generous before money, you’ll be even more generous with money. Money has improved my life dramatically, but it’s only amplified the good that was already in my life.
well if you make that much money, then OBVIOUSLY, you're compromising on other parts of your life.
you know there's actually research done on happiness. and it tunrs out that the subjectively reported quality of life does not correlate with income above a certain point. in laymens terms you could say that money only makes you happy up to a certain point. above that, happiness doesn't come from more money. therefore generating money above that point is pointless.
Actually gold diggers marry you to get divorced and take half your money. Granted they probably had a prenup, I don't know anything about the situation (and don't care honestly). Also only some women are gold diggers, and one couple's outcome is not reflective of another's, so you can't use it as a way to say "see, this doesn't happen because with this couple, it didn't".
There problems go much much deeper than money. Maybe , it’s the millions of people he’s killed testing vaccines on ! Africans , Indians ( he was thrown out of India 🇮🇳 .. Gates is another Joseph Mengele ( Angel of Death Nazi Dr.) One of the sickest Fucks ever, convicted of Crimes Against Humanity...
I mean the smallest amount of research shows this is complete bullshit, and I want to believe this is your attempt at satire but judging on your other opinions I know you are serious 🤢
@msc545 He’s a self proclaimed narcissist, so that is admitting he is highly sensitive... They often take things personally, agitate over small things, and have difficulty letting go. Two other common traits of the highly sensitive narcissist are narcissistic brooding (cutting resentment and simmering hostility), and narcissistic rage (intense angry outbursts) which he’s already displayed so... Yeah you kinda ate your own foot there Jamie
See that’s where we don’t know. I am only focusing on the marriage between him and her not the rest of the world. We don’t know what exactly happened I’m just saying or making a point about having more money doesn’t always make you happy or great in the relationship and women are not always golddiggers
Yes that may be true but in most cases guys go to work to provide they have fully grown children at this point he’s a millionaire you should try to do everything thatYou can I don’t think it was her personally.
Well from tabloid standpoint her and the family are super mad at him. We don’t know what exactly happened or whatever. The way it seems in a lot of ways that guys think especially on here. It doesn’t matter what women want or think as long as they bear children in the right amount of time. Not that they are a person not that they can do anything for themselves just an incubator almost for their legacy. I’m not saying all men are like this. But I’ve been reading and I don’t really like most of the opinions that the guys have one here. Me personally we just haven’t found the right person there’s so many people in the world and I’m not really worried about it right now.
Could be because of he beeing wanted around the world and she doesn't want to be involved in that. Just you wait and see what will happen after this, could be sometime before or after "the great reset". But hey Im just one person with thoughts, I could still be somewhat wrong.

"This man makes billions of dollars and can’t keep her happy"
"This is for the men are those people they say women are such gold diggers"
Um, you do realize she's doing exactly what gold diggers always do, right? She married an older man with money, waited for him to reach his peak earnings, then divorced him and took $ billions of his money with her in search of another man.
Or take it a little bit deeper than that maybe she doesn't want to be happy maybe she knows things about him that nobody else knows the planets changing right now Bill Gates has a lot to do with it I don't think she wants to be a part of it
