Oh No!!! 10 More years of D&D at Atari...

My wife is probably a millionaire now, but once the divorce is done I am pretty sure I will not be even in the totally bs 'million dollars in equity' kind of way. As it stands I am paying minimum payments on my cc bills and had to go back to work....

Heheheh. Well, I hope you LEARNED something from this. And people wonder why I choose to remain single. Me, I keep my mine squarely squirrelled away and the only way anyone's getting at them is by prying them from my cold, dead hands!

Of course, I don't really know all that much about how the software industry works, other than that it doesn't. The exact flavor of dysfunctionality is somewhat irrelevant to me.

Some advice: You'd have hung onto your millions better if you spend most of your time ignoring that it exists and doing without it. That entire credit card habit is a really bad habit.

There is a notorious troll from a bunch of message boards who would constantly brag about his benzos and being married to a german model who is really hot, and various more or less unbelievable crap.

Well, I wouldn't be surprised if said wife ends up leaving with his benzos eventually. It sounds like the kind of thing that won't last. As I've always learned, if it sounds too good to be true, toss a grenade in first just to be safe.

Anyway, I met this guy eventually by sheer chance, and he picked up a tab for about 1600 bucks at his friend's restaurant and his wife was simply stunning and I am pretty sure he could bench press all that weight.

As I have certainly encountered numerous times in my career, truth is totally stranger and completely less believable than fiction. Fiction, you see, has this minor problem of requiring plausibility, consistency, and reason, so as to meet the entire suspension-of-disbelief thing that a good story needs. Truth is under no such limitations!

Ha! That is a good point.

If anything I should have spent all the money while I could, though.
