The Fight for a Man's Rights
If you're a stripper, having a baby by one of these rappers is kinda like winning the lottery anyway: You end up set for life on account of some shit you did because you lack the sense god gave the common furry woodland creature.
So why not treat it as if it was the lottery? Namely, guys who slip up and impregnate one of their jumpoffs should have the option of paying said jumpoff in one lump sum rather than having to make monthly payments for the next 18 years. (Unless you get lucky and the kid doesn't make it that long.)
Of course the lump sum would be less than the sum of the payments you would receive over the course of 18 years, but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of women would take it anyway. They might have addictions to feed, or subprime mortgages that are about to readjust. And who knows, some of them might actually be attempting to put themselves through college.
I only barely passed Principles of Finance when I was in college, but there might even be a way to invest that lump sum and have it be worth more in the long run than the amount you'd eventually receive in monthly payments. (Though if a grown-ass man with a business degree can't figure that out, I doubt some stripper could.)
The reason I bring this up is because I just came across the story of how Scott Storch's baby's mother is trying to take him to court, claiming he fell behind on his $7,500 child support payments, the check he wrote to enroll the poor bastard in Florida's pre-paid college plan bounced, and so far he's failed to take out a $1 million life insurance policy naming the child as a beneficiary, as the judge ordered him to do.
You'll recall that I brought you the story a couple of years ago of how Scott Storch was named the baby's father by default, because he failed to show up to a paternity hearing, not unlike how DMX was recently ordered to pay some broad $1.5 million because he told a magazine she raped him.
As I mentioned at the time, it obviously never occurred to this broad how Scott Storch's mother, or his real girlfriend might feel knowing he dropped it off in some stripper.
Also, apparently it never occurred to this broad that Scott Storch might be busy. Obviously his reported $70 million fortune didn't make itself. Maybe he was too busy recording Timbaland dis records and so he forgot to cut a check. But should he be treated as if he's some deadbeat if he's probably already sent this woman over a hundred thousand dollars?
Man, fuck that shit!
If he's sent her that much money and she's still having problems making ends meet, then I'm left with no other choice than to assume that she's got a nasty drug problem. In which case Scott Storch might want to consider pulling a Kevin Federline and going and rescuing his son. Shit, she might end up having to send him money before it's all said and done with.
I knew I should have studied law!
