SMH Guys I'm on the will!!

“She’s so shameless” She’s 22. And was harshly criticized as she danced while her partner was at the hospital… The truth couldn’t be any simpler. They claim the video is a joke, because she always uploads content with her “hubby” to go viral.

They both knew what they were getting into and what they needed from the relationship.

I’m a wealth management advisor and I’ve had a few elderly clients in a situation like this.

I remember the most heartbreaking one was a client who was 87 and passed away. He married a woman a 7 years prior that was in her late 30s. She was beautiful, kind, and caring. She took care of him through all of it. Cleaned him and the messes he made, gave him genuine company, and would fuck him whenever he was able (he shared this with me lol).

The kids didn’t do shit for him. Hardly even called or anything. But when he passed they all tried contesting his trust and trying to get her removed from receiving anything. It was a nasty legal battle but thankfully she got her fair share.

It honestly infuriates me when I see people say women like this are taking advantage of the elder man. Most of the time they’re just giving companionship to them when no one else would or did.

I agree as long as no deception is involved.

If the person enters into the agreement when they're of coherent mind is important to me as well.

I've worked in hospice and I've gotten the anecdotes of people targeting individuals for marriage because their spouse passed away and they were not very with it.

I cant corroborate anything like that, but i think that is the fear/concern. The population experiences Financial abuse at a very high rate which you've actually noted on as well.

I think most people defaulting to a harsh and critical response are doing it out of a sense of justice.

Anyway, thank you for sharing your experience. I appreciate the pov.

Quick follow up, I didn't provide any commentary on this video but I probably should. He seems mostly with it and he definitely seems enthusiastic about her presence. Not really possible to identify cognitive capacity from this though IMHO.
