Maybe because of your write-ups in Jarus hub how far naa Saga? When are you signing the dotted lines so sagakids can come forth? i have one beautiful net lace and gele I want to launch on that day ooo |
sayoberry:I sabi waka oo What's gwan Sayo? The twins are already one ??God bless them both my dear. Kisses to them. |
beedam: ![]() I no chop ban oooo Choi! Beedam no trust me at all I was just confined to the four walls of the monastery completing my chastity vows ni o Congrats to all new mothers on this thread - next year, you will be back again ![]() Zaynie - abeg let us see in camera, our coffers must be overflowing right now ![]() To the new entrants of this wonderful belleful thread - this journey will be easy for you by His grace And a big thank you to all for the shout outs - as much as I wanted to show face, Mother Superior no gree me show face ![]() To become Mary Amaka no be small thing oo Missed you all |
uprightman:Amen!!! Can't recall exactly what I said but I pray that God will continue to bless and prosper the work of your hands. Amen. I'll keep check your site bro. |
damiso:Aareeee!!! Damiso don port to Travel section ![]() |
TV01: ![]() A40 and TV - this is not the men's thread ooooo |
TV01:Agree She should get 50%, then a further percentage as punishment, then a lien placed on any future earnings and further garnishing of his pensionHahaha yes oooo No end to the punishment at ol at ol Next time, he will think twice before breaking his marital vows |
A40:The father definitely has a role to play but remember my discussion was based on a scenario where "Dangote" is the husband and the wife is an undergraduate/fresh graduate or so. Hence, he is the busy breadwinner with very little time to spare for the family while the wife is more hands on, sacrificing her life raising his children and providing stability for him and the kids. I cant outrightly call every case where the wife demands 50% greedy, the peculiarities of each case would differ and each would be judged differently. On Tiger's case - can I ever judge that case objectively considering Tiger's escapades? I don't think so. With Serena - if you as a man has sacrificed all to keep the home front going while she concentrated on amassing trophies and earning money, why not? |
damiso:@bolded: I wish I was Dami. Pls allow me rant a little ![]() Schools are on hols and my hands are full I keep settling meaningless squabbles. I have to beg and scream before they eat. I ask them what they wanna eat, and the minute you dish it, they change their mind to something else and I have to scream and sream. These are very hard times for moi. You plan your vacation to spend time with these young peeps but after 3 days, you start questioning that decision. I sleep tired, I wake up tired. They have a nanny but once they see me, she ceases to exist. I have to be on permanent duty. Sambarry help!!!!!I wish schools would vacate 24th of Dec and not 3 weeks before Xmas |
Wo, Saga goodnight. Hope I have been able to ruffle your feathers small oya, boasting time My arguments on this thread have been purely academic. My belief: Marriage is more than a logical decision. It's also a spiritual union with its own set rules and principles. But we would not have been on the same page, right? Like TV was speaking Latin to you already ![]() Tutunkpon |
Timbuktou:Yeye guy ![]() Missed kor, mass ni |
Sagamite:Wish you were answering these questions Saga. The sex was just an example....to show that the value attached to different benefits in life differs and people are willing to pay different prices, cross different miles to achieve certain goals/benefits if they find it worthy. Going back to the Dangote example, while everyone else would think the rich guy is an idiot for marrying a pauper, only he can explain why he took such an "illogical decision". Only he understands why he is willing to take such risk when it has a high probablity of crystallization. At that point, he could well be said to be paying a price for something that only he understands the extent of the utility he is enjoying. We all don't have to understand it. There are soo many things in marriage that are not readily quantifiable. As a man, If I marry a well-behaved girl from Sagamu because I want her to instill some cultural discipline into my kids which no girl in the UK may be able to offer, would most people understand the rational behind this decision? However, deep down, that action, when fulfilled completed you. She helped you achieve a fundamental goal of yours in life, and not just you, your offsprings, your lineage because you believe that discipline or knowledge will transcends generations. If this lady, but after several years gets close enough to you to realize the weight of what she hasbdone and during a divorce settlement case, request for a large chunk of your assets, would it really be unfair to give it to her? Would it really be fair to say she should be sent back with what she brought from Sagamu? and maybe indulged some access to your kids(at least they bear your surname, right) from the goodness of your heart? We could have several variations of this example above. Then coming to the alternative forgone - how do you measure what a woman would have achieved if she were not married to you? And forget academic degrees, I have seen illiterates become millionaires by merely buying and selling. Hence, earning potentials is also difficult to measure. So what would the judge do? Looking at the financial value of what each party contributed before and during the duration of the marriage would be a very shallow way of judging marital disputes. It's like saying I want to reimburse my parents for all they spent on my education as I am now a "Dangote" and I feel that once I do that, I would have been able to adequately repay them for any academic success I achieved under their care. As logical as this sounds, isn't it the most ridiculous thing ever? Barring all emotions and sentiments emanating from the "parents" cited in this example, would it still make sense? Were these feats achieved based only on the fact that my school fees were paid as at when due? At least I read and passed all the exams on my own, so why wouldn't it be a fair deal? But then, what about the constant advice, encouragement, stability of the home front, the broad shoulders I could always cry on abbl. Are these contributions of any value? Can they be quantified? If they cannot, would it suffice that the sharing be generous to the party, who at a first glance seems to have contributed and achieved less in the union? Trying to err on the side of caution maybe? ***But why should judges not care about the benefits? This whole argument revolves round benefits - enjoyed, forgone, contributed etc |
taryour:Lol...We all good. We bless the Lord. |
RoyalRoy: you sef see am |
Timbuktou: #yimu |
Sagamite:How can it be said that you've sucessfully brought utility except it's been proved to have been derived or enjoyed by another? It's far easier to prove derivation...however, when things get to that heated stage, which of the partners will be truthful as to what they've truly derived from the other? And hell NO, we are not just talking about financial utility or financial transactions here...which is why we should have talked about what marriage is in the first place. If I ask you today, "what is the offical price of se.x?" What will your answer be? And I am not asking for Saga's price tag or Njoku's or Dayo's. For uniformity sake, let's say 5 hrs? What is the official benchmark price of 5hrs shagging? I can give you the answer for the American dollar or a barrel of crude oil. |
Royalroy, you must not allow Tim and freecocoa give us their aso-ebi before you o...becuz dis two people ehnn, odikwa very serious these dayz oo |
baby124:Lol...pls don't mind Sagamite. He is actually the next Akarigbo of Sagamu o but the gods won't stamp their confirmation if he refuses to get married. Why do you think TV01 has been on his case for years? We are watching him... |
Sagamite: No, the state cannot force people to marry anyone but in an event where there is a dispute between couples and the state cannot readily establish the utility both partners derived from each other during the course of the union or the worth of the alternatives they both had to forgo, how best does the state share their combined assets other than a ratio that nearly equates to 50:50? |
Sagamite:The emboldened is definitely not true. The main problem with Nigerians is their refusal to use the law to settle disputes especially marital ones. Rather than approach the courts to seek redress, the average Nigerian, especially women, will rather leave it to karma or just put it behind them somehow. I have nothing against these options, just saying that the Nigerian woman knows the risk, calculates it but hesitates at the legal way of getting succor. |
Sagamite:Pls how is marriage by Dangote to a high school drop-out a logical decision from Dangote's POV? knowing fully well the potential liability he could incurr from signing the darn paper? And with full knowledge of the other options available to him with which he could derive the same benefits that marriage offers without the attached risks? I honestly don't see this logic. Fall in love? Where did I say that Saga? Is falling in love and marriage synonymous? Did you marry every girl you fell in love with? No, the state cannot force people to marry anyone but in an event where there is a dispute between couples and the state cannot readily establish the utility both partners derived from each other during the course of the union or the worth of the alternatives they both had to forgo, how best does the state share their combined assets other than a ratio that nearly equates to 50:50? If marriage is not a legal partnership to you Saga, then define what marriage is exactly? This is actually where i would have loved to start this discussion. |
njokusboy: ![]() I see the bolded a lot o ![]() |
njokusboy:Buy why did he also sign that piece of paper knowing the risk attached to it naa? It's either he signed it under duress or there is some utility he is going to benefit from executing that piece of paper that is worth the risk. Would we know? |
[size=4pt] Sagamite, all these threads with big grammar on top say you no want share your assets with moi ![]() [/size] My first question to you is - What is logical about marriage that you want to apply logical rules to it? In your example, why would a Dangote go into |
ronald4lif:Choi! Oga, you dey vex o All these big big obodo oyinbo grammar on top marriage ![]() |
veave:This is deep! Whatever it is, I pray God himself intervenes and leads you on the right path. |
mummy2be:Hehehehehe good queshion |
