Tiger Woods

Complete Bullshit. Tiger woods is a complete athlete unlike most golfers. Add in the fact that Tiger woods is a Stanford Grad and I would say that makes him a pretty good catch.

Stanford dropout after 2 years.

Tiger’s imperfect world.
Bad times when you can’t count on even the National Enquirer to not squash a story for a little in-kind money.

There are some ER surgeons who are envious of his status, with the implications they deserve it more because they save lives. “You treat gang members from gunshot wounds and they end up in prison. He inspires people, important people like Accenture crowd. There is no comparison, you guys have less value.” The truth hurts, but I just wanted to be loved. How do I finesse the truth? Oh, Bill where are you, I need moral flexibility training.

His wife is definitely a complete fox and would have made a lot of money modeling. Simple trade off here . no winner no loser. Don’t think she ever had to think about the money. There was plenty there should she elected to make it. Tiger knew that too.[/quote]
Money, jock, degree from good school equals good catch? Where does the part about going to prostitutes on the side fit in there with the good catch part? I think some want to revel in tigers “conquests” on some sort of macho ego trip, but face it, “Tiger the plumber” could also get female like these as often as he could afford, if he was prone to going to hookers.[/quote]

Actually, I’m betting that Tiger the Plumber could find just as hot a wife as he has now (although I only consider her to be modestly hot, as I’m not into the Nordic look – but I digress). I’ve seen plenty of very normal guys – even guys who don’t make a ton of dough – with very hot partners. It’s not that unusual. However, clearly being Tiger the Golfer made things easier in that respect.

Now, I’m going to editorialize on what I think these two SHOULD be doing in order to maximize their contentment based on their actions thus far.

Tiger should divorce Elin and pay her a huge amount of money. Now. Why? Clearly, based on what we know now he’s been screwing around with LOTS of woman for many years. Clearly, he loves being the swinging bachelor. It’s an important part of his life. He’s only going to give it up under duress, which he’s facing currently. So, now he’s going to pay his wife a shitpile of money to “stay” with him while he denies himself the things he wants, just so that he can make a few million more dollars from his sponsors? Given his level of wealth, that’s completely idiotic. He should pay her off, become a swinging bachelor (which is what he truly wants), and just accept losing some sponsors. He’s still going to have shitpile of money and be able to do whatever the hell he wants. His wife will be happier and he can share custody of the kids and everybody lives happily ever after.

Elin should take the money and run. She’s still young and attractive and will have no problem finding another dude, if that’s what she wants. Clearly, she wants no part of the newly-revealed Tiger Woods, or else she wouldn’t be demanding all this up-front money along with a new pre-nup. There’s a word for women who stay with men in exchange for money – and I have no problem with prostitution, per se. It’s a perfectly respectable profession. But does this woman really want to go down that road? Because that’s exactly what she’s doing. By choice. She could get a huge settlement and be done with it all and move on, but she’s choosing to remain for a few dollars more. In my view, that’s a bad decision. But, hey, to each his/her own.

Basically, I think they’re both lying to themselves regarding what’s going to make them content. And that rarely ends well.

Pretty good analysis/advice davelj. I would only add that it’s probably not strictly prostitution per se for Elin – she probably does put value on an outcome that keeps the family together.

Now, if that outcome is just completely unlikely, or completely unlikely with all parties happy for the mid/long term, then yeah I guess she should cut bait.

But I guess, is there really a hurry? Does she have to blow up her family right now just to please us? Seems like she could give it a few months to see if there is *any* possibility of salvaging the thing. Which I think there may not be…
