The divorce rate (which is at 40% currently) may not lie, but fake statistics sure do, lol!

41 for first marriage. 60 second marriage. 71 for third marriage. 41 plus 60 plus 71 divided by 3 equals 57.33333 etc. In simpler terms approximately 60%. Look up divorcerate.org. It's the first one when you look up divorce rate in America. Plus you didn't argue that 70% of divorces are filed by women.

what do u thing guys with money come out of nowhere? guys with money peacock when they are lookin for babes to hang out with. meaning women will notice their "feathers", e.g, vip table. cool ride, entourage, clothes, car, yacht, home, travel habits, etc

LOT'S of attention from gorgeous women.
*claps*

The only male millionaires who don't attract the hottest women in the world are gay.

The reason I say you cant even keep up with an adult conversation is this statement above. Do you understand what AVERAGE means? It means most common out of a selected group.

You could find AVERAGE statistics about presidents, basketball players, football players, ufc champions, etc.

Obviously, if your control group is made up of millionaires, then you can find AVERAGE statistics regarding them.

Not hard to understand buddy but the fact I even have to explain it is rather unsettling.

Fair enough. A control group does have averages. Adults can admit when they're wrong and learn from it. Average does mean what the common trend and control groups dictate what the average is.

Many millionaires lead very modest lives. A million isn't what it used to be. These days you have to be a multi-millionaire in order to have money to play around with. If you haven't heard of millionaires complaining about not being able to get women, it's because you don't know any millionaires.

The rate of official divorces is somewhere around 50%. If you are to add in the number of husbands and wives who basically living separately even though they're not officially divorced, I'd say it's closer to 75%.
