The joke may be on Hef. Maybe she’ll die before he does. ---

> [@Musicat](#): > > The joke may be on Hef. Maybe she’ll die before he does. To slightly rephrase an old joke. After announcing his engagement, Hefner was having lunch with one of his friends who expressed concern over the upcoming nuptials. "With all that Viagra you take and the huge age difference, you do realize this could result in someone’s death very quickly, don’t you? Hefner :“If it does, I’ll have to get another wife”. ---

> [@Princhester](#): > > You are missing a major, major point here. A prenup means that what you get on a divorce is predetermined. It doesn’t mean you get nothing. Unless you know what this girl gets if she and Hef divorce (or he dies) you have no idea how this equation works… Goot point. She’s going to walk away with some kind of juicy settlement; especially if she ends up a widow instead of a divorcee. > [@gaffa](#): > > …I interviewed at Playboy several years back.

Apparently they have a very difficult time hiring men due to jealous girlfriends and wives… Playboy also hires alot of gay men for the same reasons. ---

They say the older you are, the less a big age difference means. I dunno, though; when she is his current age, he’ll be 144. Awkward. mmm ---

This gives a new meaning to “waiting by the mailbox for a check”. Hope she asked for a lump-sum payout. ---

Why would Hefner even care whether she’s in it for the money? What can she do, even if there isn’t a prenuptial agreement? Do you think that Hefner is thinking to himself, “What if she spends money lavishly? What if she spends all my money over the next twenty years and then divorces me?”? Hefner has four children, and there’s almost certainly already an arrangment so that they will inherit most of his money. In fact, they probably already have trust funds set up to enable them to live comfortably. If his soon-to-be wife spends money like crazy, she will in all probability only be hurting herself, since she will be spending the money that she would keep after he dies. If, in some bizarre fashion, she could spend every cent he owns and then divorce him, she would be the one in trouble. A divorce court judge would look at the situation and say to her, “You were the one who wasted all the money, since Mr. Hefner was in good financial shape before you married him. Since you have now spent the money that he was going to live on, you now must pay him alimony.” ---
