The Museum of Really Lame Excuses has a call in for you.
Never claimed it to be an excuse; that’s something you brought to the party, not me.
What I said is that there are contributing factors. Every action has contributing factors, and part of the problem is that Tiger spent a lot of his life alone. Some men are sleazeballs that will have a mistress no matter what. Some are outstanding, that will resist temptation at every turn. Then you have the middle ground, where given a combination of being lonely and ignored by your wife, and an opportunity presents itself.
But, you have failed to address my point. Why was Elin spending months alone in their mansion, while her husband was living at a $1,000+/night resort for weeks or months every year? Why didn’t she join him?
If you had a net worth of $450 Million, and you had to spend 2+ weeks in Hawaii for an upcoming tour; would you ask your wife to join you? How about the nanny and kids? It’s not like she has a career that is taking up all of her time.
