Today’s sports section reported that el Tigre is going to give Elin $750 million in a divorce settlement to be signed next week. :eek: Said that is double what Elin originally sought, after her lawyers found out he was worth much more than $1 billion.
She is to have sole physical custody, but the 2 are to share legal custody. What exactly does that entail? And says Tiger cannot introduce any GFs to the kids unless he is married to them. Technically, I guess that means the kids could come to the reception, but not the ceremony…
There is no woman in the multi-verse worth that kind of money. If he was stupid enough not to have an absolutely iron-clad, air-tight pre-nup that covered stuff like this, then he’s a fool that deserves to get shafted.
Maybe not, but he is not paying for her. He is paying for his kids.
From her perspective, the more money she can control now – the more money she can guarantee for their kids. If he gets remarried, they could end up with nothing from his side.
He did have a pre-nup but once the scandal hit he sweetened it up a whole lot in order to add a “you will keep your mouth shut about everything” clause to it.
Yeah, it is an interesting economic choice that he thinks it is worth hundreds of millions up front to protect his future earnings against whatever she might say.
I readily admit he is a phenomenal athlete - quite likely the best ever (tho at this point I question whether he will pass Jack.) But for someone with as much going for him to get himself into a situation that will cost him $750 million AND custody of his kids (assuming he cares about that) he is definitely one of the biggest fuck-ups of all time.
This is the key, I think. He voluntarily gave up that much in exchange for her keeping quiet. Makes you wonder what else there is. I mean, his floozies have already come out with lots of damaging and embarrassing things, what more could Elin add to the mix?
Or, it could be that the various groups that were estimating his fortune were off by quite a bit, and Tiger’s already well over a billionaire.
Sure, like the guy who is proud to have a million invested in the stock market, but fails to mention he started with 10 mill. Seriously, before this all came out I thought Tiger was uncannily smart in managing his image and all - in addition to his incredible focus on the course and strategy for getting to and staying at the top.
To piss away 1/2 of your net worth is not smart in my book.
Or he could just be paying the money so he can move on and not have to drag it out. Yes, it is a buttload of money, but he has plenty left and he might actually think he deserves what he is getting.
