The guys screamie-MEmeing the loudist about losing half their house...puah, do they even own a house? Uhm, seven years into

a 30 year mortgage, doesn't quite get it; the monthly statement barely touches the principle - that is, if jasper even has the wherewithal to have made the investment.  Could be, he's living in his aunt freda's basement, or sponging off his (getting fed up) girlfriend, or is sharing quarters with two other dud(e)s.  But for the sake of discussion, let's make an arse out of all concerned, and assume red-pill groupie is, at present, married: and he and his wife are sevenish years into their mortgage.   The marriage being so on the rocks, one or both are seriously contemplating calling the lawyer.  Needful to say, doesn't help matters, when wifey, who also works full-time, does most the housework - and doesn't even get help lugging in the bags of groceries; yeah, that can take what remains of the gal's femininity and tramp it into the stained carpet.  Yeah, the rug could stand a shampoo...just another chore on wifey's list.

BIG difference between starting over, single, at early 30-something, than it is, to deep six a marriage some 20 years down the road - when the couple actually has a positive net worth.  And a decent living room rug, a real one; one that doesn't smell of plastieechy chemicals.
