The whole thing is sad and the reality is that no one, no matter how much or little money and fame is perfect. We like to see heroes fall, and love to see the fallen become heroes simply because we know that they do and don't "deserve" it any more than we do...

We don't like seeing heroes fall. The media is obsessed with it.

I'm sure all the money is under a mattress, and he has no money manager(s). Again, as I said earlier and you failed to read, the net win is NOT financial. Nope, you are ignorant.

Also, majority of sponsors? Nike is still here, hence majority remains.

I didn't fail to read, your comment said "he's rich beyond his wildest dreams" and that if he gets a divorce, it doesn't matter because it's still a "net win". You talked about finances and being rich. Are you retarded? It was part of your comment and we're responding to that.

None of this is a net win for Tiger. Only an idiot teenager would think that. If he didn't want to be married, he could have simply walked away from the marriage and not ruined his reputation. His finances being hurt, sponsorship loss, losing his children and his public image are NOT net wins. I replied to your whole idiotic comment. Learn to read moron.

Also, I wouldn't be so sure about those financial investment managers. I mean we're talking about an idiot stupid enough to leave womens numbers in his cell phone, have unprotected sex with some really UGLY women, get the herps, cheat on his pregnant wife, hook up with women in hotel rooms booked under his name. Dude, he's obviously not as smart and good as many people believed..LOL

This was my original statement:

who cares, he will still be rich beyond belief and can now fuck anything he wants without having to worry about it.

He tries to repair it, she denies him and gets divorced from him. Net win for Tiger.

Callous or not the point has nothing to do with finance.

Everything beyond that was responses to other posts, which included finances, and not the bigger picture. Everything about coulda/shoulda is once again, moot.

Mouth-breathers out hot and heavy again today. Finances being hurt? Sure, maybe a bee sting. Ouch.

The sponsors will be back as soon as this blows over. His name is one of the top brands in the world if the old sponsors don't return there will be dozens more lining up.

They have to worry about pissing off the women tho. That's why nike isn't too worried, its pretty dominated by men, particularly nike golf.
 
Gillette's commercials blew ass, who cares about accenture except mostly older white men, and Tag Heuer is not a mainstream American brand imo anyway.

Nike stays, others leave, no matter. Plenty of people will hop back on the bandwagon once he's on the great American comeback trail. Bad fathers and cheaters are not vilified for life... not even close.
 
I thought prenup's only covered premarital assetts? If she is entitled to half his earning since they got married, which I believe she is, she will walk away with several hundred million.
 
This is why you should divorce your wife immediately after your hit your first million. Anything you make after that is untouchable.
 
i guess im the only person who really doesn't care and wishes they would stop talking about all of it. its a personal issues and no ones business except their own the media and everyone just needs to let it go and shut the fuck up about it.

Maybe or being married helped get some of his marketing campaigns. Before this went down he was viewed as an upstanding family guy. I bet some of his contracts would never had been offered if he was known as an orgy hussling human growth hormone injesting party animal. And I bet the PGA would had done its best to limit his exposure as well.

Tiger was a train wreck waiting to happen. When he gets back on the competitive golf course (yes, it's goiing to happen) he will again be the greatest golfer on the planet, at least for a while, but he probably will never have it going like he once did. He will be hounded by suspicion and innuendo from here on out. He'll no longer dominate the sport. He'll just be one of the major players. He's a cautionary tale.

You're the only one who doesn't care but cares to share his thoughts on the matter anyway. Go back to WoW fucktard.

I heard a figure once that P Diddy paid $25k/month for his one child he has. He makes over $50 million per year. $100k / month is high for two kids regardless of how much money he has or makes.

Lamont Burns said:
Child support?!?!? Who gives a fuck. You think he planned on welching on his kids anyway? That he wouldn't be spending a fuckton of money on them if the marriage was intact?

Holy shit people, this is not a deadbeat blue collar worker.

I agree with this. He can pay his child support easily. When his kids ask him for something he will just buy it for them and not go through his soon to be ex.

That may be, but talking like that is moot at this point. Also, his sponsors are not all bailing on him. His largest, Nike, has already said they are staying.

What Nike (and the other sponsors who say they are sticking by him) is saying now doesn't mean much. It's just posturing in the current maelstrom. What will actually happen remains to be seen. I can't imagine that Tiger will ever have a promotional presence that begins to compare with what was previous to Thanksgiving 2009.

No. You can make a prenup so she gets zero while you make 1 billion while married.

Everything I've read said she gets 20 mil

And this is my you are not in marketing. This "maelstrom" while demporarily devaluing his brand will only increase his fame and brand recognition in the long term. This isn't OJ simpson after all. he just banged a few hookers.

Definitely won't. However, men will still buy and wear his Nike shit.

He was famous and banking nearly 100 million per year when he got married. He has every right to protect that income as it is already epected so she signs a prenup to get a small portion which is closer to 20 million (maybe a little more or less) like Zebo said.
 
don't ya think tiger would make a good wrestling ref.in the WWF?? isn't that where all the loOsers like mike tyson end up?
