When you create a Monster dont get mad that it likes crushing houses



Kim Kardashians move may be two steps back for Jersey chasing honey dips with bodies from heaven who may or may not have careers, careers which also happen to be quite vague in description, but its also three steps forward for Women's Independence, Business savvy and Wealth. (17 mill for 2 months of work!!!?) When I see her I'm starting a slow clap. I`m not saying this to be Ironic and witty, I mean it, I want to shake her hand because she now has achieved Hustla Status. Lets examine what happened here. We have been following the Kardashians for a few years now some will admit to it some will not. We are obsessed with them I mean the show is called "Keeping up with the kardashians". I mean sure its a play on words about our obsession with wanting to stay on par with our neighbours at any cost but therein lies the root of the entire issue. When we see attractive wealthy people we are reminded of what we aspire to be and have everyday of our life. The very fact that we get out of bed every morning is too ultimately live a life of which the ratio of how much we work to how much money we have has been tipped heavily to the "how much money we have" side. Like Kim`s. This obsession we have drove the marketing machine to shell out a total of 17 million dollars for K.K. because they knew how many people would tune in and drool over her nuptial ceremony. The same people who made this possible are now calling her every name you can think of to describe a goldigger (see first Line).






Thing is though she didn't do anything wrong. Kim Kardashian got married to a dude who had less money than her and had the personality of a doorknob. many women call this downgrading and we all know how most women hate to downgrade anything. People paid her a tonne of money to cover her wedding, then two months later she changed her mind and broke it off. Men are finding it uncomfortable because it is a reminder of quick a hot woman can dump your ass and upgrade you the second she decides shes not happy. Some women are disliking her decision because it makes women seem fickle and materialistic. I even read that someone said its an insult to the institution of marriage and to that I say 60-70% divorce rate is an insult to marriage not my Bootylicious Angel. I am actually taking a different point of view and saying that on the contrary this might be one of the most empowering thing a (high profile) woman has done in in a while. She exercised her right to change her mind regardless of the financial cost and social backlash. Its something men have been able to do for centuries. Only with men that decision has often come at higher prices like for example financial ruin for the little guy or human lives.






So before we start to grab firewood for the stake lets take a second to remember that the only casualty of The Kardashian/Humphries divorce is Ken..umm I mean Kevin or is it Kris whatever the Nets bench warmer that Kim married. And I'm sure the only reason he`s upset is because it ended about 6 months sooner than he knew it would. (He was hoping for the Lockout to be over first)









Note to self: Learn to play Baseball then save money for a move to L.A. (I'm sure that's the next sport shes going for)
