    Still convinced this whole thing is the product of years of women he thought completely loved him slowly and methodically destroying him piece by piece. You'd think after the first 2 strikes he'd have learned but apparently he still had to go back to the well to drink for a 3rd time. After more than $30,000,000 fleeced from him from the first two, I'm pretty sure the 3rd knew he was an easy target. Had to go back to work because he was bankrupt from 2 leeches. What kind of life is that for someone. Not advocating suicide in any way shape or form, just disgusted with what can be allowed to happen to someone.

    It wasn't "allowed" to happen. He could have been happy whackin it the rest of his days or just buying some ass when he wanted it. He made the choice to marry multiple women.

    I was watching the press conference the other day and the sheriff was going over the details of his death with the reporters and I specifically remember hear him saying that toxicology could take up to 8 weeks to process. Then he stopped and asked if there were any questions. The very first question a reporter asked was, "What does the toxicology report say?" I thought the sheriff was going to pull out his gun and shoot the dumbass. I just shook my head. :crackup:

    "Allowed" to be fleeced in family court for all his earnings and left nearly bankrupt.

    That wasn't "allowed" either. That's a risk he took when he signed up for marriage.

    Shit just "happens" to people right? We are in no way a result of the decisions we make are we?

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    This has spawned a debate on suicide judging by articles I've seen the past couple days. Huffpost put up the question and there were over 4000 replies last I looked. Seems to be divided into people who know everything about everything and people who admit they don't.

    I'm on the "I just don't understand suicide." fence of the argument. Even my worst day so far in life hasn't in any way resulted in my thinking that taking myself off the planet voluntarily was worth it.

    I can't speak intelligently about what might drive someone to that decision so I won't even try.

    The people who know everything about it are no longer with us. The rest are just speculating.

    Technically, that's not entirely true. People have attempted suicide and come as close to death as humanly possible only to be saved by medical staff. I wouldn't call their testimony speculation.

    Technically, they don't know everything about it, or they would have succeeded. Granted, they would be more informed than your typical academic, or web educated amateur psychologist.

    I thought we were discussing the reasons that push someone to do it, not the mechanics of killing yourself.

    Reasons can be both simple and complicated. IMHO, the younger the person is, the more simple the reason - bullying, not fitting in, breakups etc. - more often more emotionally driven. Expected because emotions tend to be more intense at a younger age and the experience to deal with disappointment and take a long view not as developed.

    IMHO, the older the suicide, the more likely there has been a lifelong battle with <insert condition here>.

    How's that for a non-professional guess?

    I wouldn't disagree with that, in my non-professional opinion.

    It's a fleecing. You start a business. After 10 years it's worth 10mil. Wife has nothing to do with it's growth. You have key people that made it happen. She files for divorce and gets have of what everybody worked for.
