Should I get married to have more money for OTC?
Toomuchcover
Should a guy get married so he can have more money for clubbing? For the sake of this discussion let's say that the guy can't live with his gf due to family issues or some other reason. It's marriage or nothing. Let's also give this guy a normal savings of $300/month but bills of $2,000 per month that he could split with his new wife so he could save $1300/month.
Don't argue the set-up of the question but please answer what you would do with the above criteria!

That being said it depends on the situation. Spousal support and half my shit would not be typical for a person who was newly married or married for only a few years.
I'm sure there are married guys on this board who find themselves in my scenario.
The only way there could be an increase in money is that pooling of income and splitting of bills with cohabitation. But you'd be surprised, once married women expect to live much higher on the hog, and they make this expectation known.
Also, income tax is progressive. If you study the tax tables I believe that there is still a kind of a marriage penalty. It is not as much as what is saved by cohabitation, but it is still there.
Anyway if the idea is more ability to do 'clubbing', meaning P4P sex, abandon any ideas of marriage.
If I were to be reincarnated, I would be a divorce lawyer. Either that or a pimp. Either way I would be rich.

Of course, you also have to realize in a marriage, you may have some "your money" and some "her money" but most if not all of it is "our money." Good luck using the "our" money for strippers.
It doesn't matter what comes after the fourth word. The answer to this question is always "no."
Most of the married women I've met seem to go by the philosophy, "What's mine is mine, and what's his is mine."
My take on marriage is you have a choice: Marriage or a bullet in the head? A bullet in the head or marriage? They really just amount to the same thing.
