So if I'm reading this right -- and I don't have any idea if I am -- this study concludes that wives don't let their husbands spend money. I. Did. Not. Knowthat.

Yay, Adam Smith, you pimp.

it's the biatches that will getcha

FTFA: "The study also found real-life evidence of this behavior. In Columbus, Ga., where there are 1.18 single men for every single woman, the average consumer debt was $3,479 higher than it was 100 miles away in Macon, Ga., where there were 0.78 single men for every woman."

brb moving to Macon...

My school did that study, so kicks I am getting.

Also - is anyone surprised at the results?

No the best way to keep your out of pocket girl friend expenses down is to buy a Real Doll and use her for at least 10 years.

Hmm, maybe the debt in Columbus is based on the huge military base there. Young men with dangerous jobs and constant deployment to war may decide to rack up debt and live for the moment.

Then again, I do travel to Birmingham Alabama every weekend because the women there are beautiful and appreciative. Every weekend, I see dozens of beauties with goobers. Every weekend, I meet women who date men with no jobs, no cars, no goals and no money who cheat on them.

That place is Mecca for Farkers.

My roomate acts like she is my GF the way she wants me to spend my money. I told her cough up the rent and we will talk.

as someone that lives and works in Alabama... you are absolutely correct. there seems to be a mindset here among alot of women that men should just sit the fark around and do nothing while they work and support his lazy ass.

and let's not talk about the number of fully able bodied men (often men that do body-building as well) that collect either welfare or ssi and sit around doing nothing.

i won't speak of race.

From TFA:

The study's findings suggest that the image of one attractive woman surrounded by men would be more effective,says Vladas Griskevicius, professor of marketing at the Carlson School and lead author of the study. "That's what's likely to get men's testosterone ramped up," he says.

Umm...yes...go on...

This is a case of causation doesn't mean casualties. When u got a rotation of women u don't need 2 do things that a struggling playa has 2 do 2 keep their 1 girl. Think about it. When u got 1 girl u gots 2 do all sorts of special things & remember events like her birthdays, Christmas, she wants a valentine, she wants to go out on Thursday & Friday and she needs dinner. All that shiat can bankrupt a dude, bro. But if u got multiple girls it don't matter 2 care cuz if u lose 1 cuz than u can just go down tha list & txt the next biatch. Plus to a woman, this makes you seem desired thus making you diserable.

What the fark did you just say? Nevermind. Thanks for the headache. :/

the ebonics master is trolling threads in the last few days. best to ignore that rambling nonsense.

to best in the world - seriously, man. cut it out. you aren't a retard.

Careful, parts of that area are dry. And I'm not talking about lack-of-rain.

/y're better off where you are?

This is why I will stick with prostitutes; they're honest about being whores.

Hey, what can we say? It's a supply vs demand issue. Poosy is expensive and even more so when the ladies know they have a buyer's market.

Huge down side: You'd have to live in Alabama.

A better way to save is to just leave your girlfriend in your pocket. Out-of-pocket girlfriends are getting to be too expensive to be worth it.

If you really want to save money; get a hooker....

in the long run, it will be the best financial decision of your life.

And we now know Kwames' Alt....

I'm curious what effect this will have on the Chinese.

Historically they have a high savings rate (at least for the past 50 years or so).

Growing wealth + tremendous scarcity of women = invest early in chocolate, shiny things, and flower companies.
