TIGER ‘UNSTABLE’ PER KIM’S $300 MIL

Elin Nordegren Woods fluffed Tiger off for Christmas as she also told her mother-in-law to mail gifts rather than visit.

[geologist]

He has to pay the piper.

He has no excuse.

He messed up his own life, in a careless, self centered way. No thought of what it would cost him in loss of his children, wife and fortune.

Perhaps he has learned the lesson. There is no turning back, it seems.

Would you trust him again? Not I.

No pity either. He had it all. He treated it thoughtlessly. He will go on with his golf. He can have all the affairs he chooses. Which is what he seems to desire. Do not feel sorry for his situation. MO

that sex was seriously expensive..... I would bet place it at about 1 or 2 million $ per orgasm

[pgkdan]

LOL.

[Frantzie]

Tiger is a POS, pill head and probably steroid/HGH user.

[OrioleFan]

Mary Landrieu said to be holding out for more $$ from Harry Reid for final healthcare vote. Wants to be known as most expensive .....

Expensive squirting ping.

>> Grant Swank? <<

Indeed. Why link to a nobody like Swank or Wank or whoever he or she might be?

IMHO it's always best to credit and link the orginial source article, which in this case was the following:

[freedomyes]

Read “Elin is talking $300 mil” at http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/elin_is_talking_mil_OsH8qOsdQw7t6OhVO3TL6L

is provided in the post. No need to repeat it.

He has cost himself and the people that backed him Billions,I hope the cheap Skanks and Pills were worth it.

From that article:

A grinning Elin Nordegren -- asked by pals what her shame-faced husband had given her for Christmas -- coolly replied, "Three-hundred million dollars, thank you very much!" according to London's News of the World.

1. As part of marrying Tiger Woods, Elin entered into a prenuptial agreement with him.

2. The prenuptial agreement sets forth the amount of money Elin would receive in the event of a divorce.

3. Infidelity is one of the leading causes of divorce.

4. Therefore, it was conceivable at the time she signed the prenuptial agreement that Elin and Tiger would divorce and that the reason would be infidelity.

5. Now she demands to be allowed out of her contract in order receive hundreds of millions of dollars, instead of merely tens of millions of dollars.

I don't condone Tiger's behavior. I have sympathy for her as a cheated-upon spouse. And I agree with Brit Hume as to what Tiger should be doing.

Having said that, I see no reason why Elin should not be bound by the contract she signed which contemplated the circumstances she now finds herself in.

He broke the marriage contract. All bets are off.

[SirJohnBarleycorn]

He broke the marriage contract. All bets are off.

Just the opposite from "all bets are off". The prenuptial contract is the contract that comes into play when the marriage contract is broken.

I don't understand all of the support for Elin to break the prenuptial agreement (other than an understandable knee-jerk emotional response).

She and Tiger freely entered into the prenuptial agreement. It says how much money she gets if they divorce. I assume, like most prenuptial contracts, it applies regardless of whether Elin's behavior is at fault or Tiger's behavior is at fault for the divorce.

In a free country, shouldn't this agreement freely entered into by these two people governing this very circumstance be respected? Why should a judge get to decide that the contract does not apply, and take from him half of his fortune, which is not what is provided in the prenuptial agreement for this circumstance?

If people feel a court should be entitled to take away Tiger's fortune even in the face of an agreement that she signed that says otherwise, isn't the honest thing just to make adultery a crime? Then at least the penalty (half his fortune) could be honestly tied to at least having committed a crime.

[texgal]

More than likely there are some clauses that address what happens in the event of infidelity on the part of either of them - neither you or I know what what is in that pre-nup.

Having been the wife of an adulterous husband, I can tell you it's the most demeaning and humiliating situation for the wife. Personnaly, I hope she takes him to the cleaners. He can make plenty more and run around all he wants after the divorce.

[SirJohnBarleycorn]

This situation hits close to home for many people.

If there is a clause in the prenuptial agreement providing for the result in the specific case of Tiger’s infidelity, then her argument to void the contract becomes even weaker.

While faithfulness and family values are conservative principles, I just don’t want another conservative principle at work in this case to be overlooked - the sanctity of contract, the right of people to freely enter into agreements with each other, and the right to be free from arbitrary takings of property by government courts contrary to a freely-entered into agreement.

[texgal]

No-fault divorce has already destroyed the sanctity of the marriage contract.

[Hawthorn]

>> I see no reason why Elin should not be bound by the contract she signed <<

Well, I’d prefer to read the contract before reaching that conclusion. But in any case, courts often don’t interpret contracts in the way we laymen are inclined to interpret them.
