No. Just no. There is no way to credibly reduce the risk to something even approaching acceptable levels.

It's all about incentives. Women, especially the women we have today, don't actually have the ability to love like they did a few generations ago. It's all about immediate incentives, little things like taking half of everything you own plus future income plus money for the children that can be spent in whatever way she wants. It's the entire system that's fucked.

Well I am happily married for 11 years now so I am biased. Nevertheless, a 47% reduction in divorce risk is substantial. I was impressed when I came across that study. Combine that strategy with a prenup and I think the risk is manageable even if you have money if one seeks out character over aesthetics.

Everyone has there own risk threshold's for these things.

I don't see why a male with common sense would get married, makes absolutely zero sense.

Only guys I know that get married are true betas that worship women.

 Mainly because it gives me someone to shoot my cum in to that I don’t have to pretend to like.

There are cheaper ways of doing this.

True, but not as convenient.
Only if it has to be an actual human. Which may be the case for you and fair enough if so. But as a blanket statement it's the most needlessly convoluted way of going about it.

Prenups are worthless, and you can't trust numbers like that. But even if this particular number is true, you still need to ask the question "compared to what?". The odds of a fresh marriage today surviving for ten years, in the form of an intact marriage, is about 3%. So with your religious reduction, that still leaves us over the 50% mark. You have better odds betting everything you own at the casino. Literally. And I use literally in the correct way here.

Let me guess. You have a hard time meeting women ....right?  It does tend to make one bitter. Buck up laddie ...there's someone out there for you.

If you're female change the laddie to lassie and put /men behind women.

It helps if there’s another human present. Although, I did have a golden lab that I was awfully fond of but I was afraid she wouldn’t respect me in the morning.

Someone? yes. But 99% of the time she isn't the one you are looking for. You are the one she has been looking for.

Unless you get to choose, it doesn't make sense to marry. That's why males are unhappy and cheat their wives in most marriages.

There's a reason why at weddings men wear black and women where white.

I have the same suit for weddings and funerals. Many similarities in both.

Hello Lady and Gents
 I havent posted on here since 2015 when my account The Doxing, was banned from posting. Some may remember when I revealed the identity of Lambie, our friendly FT journalist, who was a plague on this thread for too long. She fought it at first but once I started subtly dripping her personal info she realized I was for real and left never too return. I never released any of her personal emails. She is gone and that is what is important. I have been reading this thread daily since 2013 and became a long term hodler in 2014. Ive even read most of JJGs posts although some speedreading and skimming is required. Im still hodling strong over half the coins i started with and happy to see Lambie doesnt plague these forums any more. The most recent dumpfest was more ridiculous imo than the Jan 2015 one so it felt like a good time to drop in and say hello after many years. Despite the rivers of blood, the carnage and the despair we have seen lately, at least NLC isnt flooding us with disgusting porn. Oh yeah and since I havent posted in so long, Ill think Ill call bottom while Im here, a little prediction never hurt anyone. I doubt Ill be back to post again for a long time but Ill be reading and enjoying everyones comments, even Roach who I believe is an undercover permabull of Jewish descent Wink

Disagree about the numbers part.
Risks can be dramatically reduced far beyond 50%.

You just have to choose your spouse wisely when selecting a partner.
Check out these divorce statistics they vary dramatically based on several factors.

https://www.wf-lawyers.com/divorce-statistics-and-facts/


U.S. DIVORCE RATE BY OCCUPATION

Professions with highest divorce rate:
*       Dancers – 43
*       Bartender s- 38.4
*       Massage Therapists – 38.2
*       Gaming Cage Workers – 34.6
*       Gaming Service Workers – 31.3
Professions with lowest divorce rate:
*       Farmers – 7.63
*       Podiatrists – 6.81
*       Clergy – 5.61
*       Optomitrists – 4.01
*       Agricultural Engineers – 1.78


Among the population segments with the lowest likelihood of having been divorced subsequent to marriage are Catholics (28 percent), evangelicals (26 percent),
upscale adults (adults making more than $75000 annually) (22 percent), Asians (20 percent) and those who deem themselves to be conservative on social and
political matters (28%).

Just group a bunch of low risk factors together.
For the absolutely lowest risk marry a conservative religious Asian girl who is highly educated.

Risk then is probably less then 20%.

Let me just make something clear, for the record. I am not against marriage in principle. If we were still religious and it was a purely cultural function, it would be fine. It used to tie people together. But as it exists today it is a legal contract with the state, and it incentivizes women to divorce.

I am also not against family. Because I have one. It's a very necessary thing. But the laws in the west today, and the US especially, are such that it is a suicidally stupid thing to do.

Yeah take your divorce statistics from lawyers.

Look it doesn't matter. Unicorns don't exist and you can't force yourself to believe in something you don't or change your race. You are defending something indefensible. It has to work for the majority, or the system is broken.

I understand your position and agree that the risks are very real and the consequences extreme if one chooses poorly which a majority do.

I just disagree that the risks cannot be navigated if one is careful.

That said I married a highly educated Asian girl and we go to church together every week so I admit that my perspective may be a bit different then the average.

Not defending anything really. The system is indeed broken. Our challenge such an environment is to live the healthiest life possible despite an ill culture. That is no easy task when our environment is more or less toxic and our culture desperately ill.

I understand why many men choose not to marry for some that may be the best course especially if ones partner is the more material type or prone to the temptation of leveraging state power against their partner.

I just don't think that is the only or the best solution to the problem unless one has already committed to a partner that for one reason or another is not marriage material in the current legal climate.

Yeah, we better hope he doesn't come back before the next bull run:

Well, it's finally here. This is is truly the beginning of the end. And I'm serious. Wall street will put this thing out of its misery once and for all. We'll see 10k before the end of the year for sure. 2018 will be a horror show back below 1k. 2019 will be the year the world tries to figure out just what the hell happened. 2020 the world moves on and bitcoin becomes a memory.

The price will hit $5,000 again in 2018, and even approach $1,000. In 2019 the price will go below $1,000 on its way to complete collapse and failure. 2020 bitcoin will be done. Facts.
