I'm more surprised he didn't use someone else's sperm and turn a profit on having the children.
Is that what you would have done?
I don't think you got it.

I agree it's ridiculous, but I was just trying to illuminate the fact that a guy got lucky, took advantage of the system, and legally got tons of money. The woman got lucky, took advantage of the system, and legally got tons of money.
Maybe by forcing men to pay the outrageous child support, they will think twice about getting a girl pregnant and walking.

Maybe by forcing men to pay the outrageous child support, they will think twice about getting a girl pregnant and walking. While I don't think that is the driving force behind the demand of this woman from P.Diddy, it was obviously greed, restricting child support to the bare minimum is not the answer either. It doesn't rectify the problem that someone (man or woman, I don't care which) has walked away from their responsibility of raising a child. The judicial system is broke, but the fix is not to reduce the amount of child support across the board. That just makes it broken a different way.
Well, I could construe that as a skill. She managed to fanagle her way around the schlong of a very rich man, and for that she is now making lots of money for it.Originally posted by: Amused

No, the guy had a skill, worked hard and played it smart and EARNED lots of money.
The girl got laid, got knocked up, and extorted lots of money using a broken legal system.

So child support is supposed to be PUNITIVE???
Go sh!t in your hat, ok?

Umm, you missed the entire point of my post, the system is broken, but the fix is not just reduce child support across the baord, that just makes it broken a different way. Take a chill pill and get over yourself.

The "fix" is to determine the amount it requires to raise a child with the minimum amount of sustenance, safety, and shelter and make a set amount based on that.
Otherwise getting pregnant by wealthy men will become a gambling sport with an assured payoff.
I'll make it simple then: both people did comparitively little for the vast sums of money they've come upon. In essence they both lucked out. One did it nefariously, but if that 21k was being extorted out of somebody else I would have more sympathy for them. Sure, puffy "earned" the money, but he didn't break his back for it or invent something spectacular. He lucked into it in a very short period of time. 21k to him is nothing. It's peanuts. Easy come, easy go. I'm far more distraught over crawford's brother (recent thread) who now has to find a way to replace his car.again your jealousy is showing skoorb.
The guy has a talent (i have to agree the music and clothes suck) and worked hard to get where he is. Its not like he won the lottery and is now living good. The guy had to work hard to get where he is.
The women got knocked up and took advantage of a broken legal system. Child support is supposed to take care of the child. it does not take $20+k to take care of a child. The mother has to contribute also.
But don't you see Skoorb? They're both results of the same system. Puffy can afford to pay his child support, unfortunately others of us aren't so lucky. By validating her greediness just because Puffy can afford it you screw the rest of us.Originally posted by: Skoorb
