Using the list below, on combined budgets totalling $394 million, Arnold's seven movies generated $861 million [I do not have the figures for the last movie listed]. But I'm not sure if the budgets listed include the marketing budgets, which can sometimes cost as much as the entire production costs of the movie. Also, his movies generated that much money on the basis of three hits - Escape Plan [2013], The Expendables 3 [2014], and Terminator Genisys [2015]. If you take the box office earnings of those three motion pictures out of the total, Arnold's remaining four movies generated $68.8 million on combined budgets of $95 million. Although I don't have the figures for Killing Gunther [Schlierkamp].
The reason why I bring that up is because The Expendables 3 can't really be said to be an "Arnold Movie". Escape Plan could be credited to Arnold, in that his screen time with Sylvester Stallone made that movie a draw, and of course any Terminator movie can be properly classified as an Arnold movie. The other movies that could be declared as Arnold movies/vehicles didn't make all that much, which would suggest Arnold's star power is not what he used to be [obvious statement is obvious, but I didn't notice how much it had declined until a friend of mine pointed that out to me a few days ago, and I loaded up the figures on Wiki to confirm it].
That, in combination with his selfie with The Hodge Twins, and his signing for small contracts like the one he had with MusclePharm leads me to believe that his divorce cost him a lot of money, and that he spent a lot of money over the years. If he is picking up quarter million dollar contracts here and there, I doubt he is bringing in a lot of cash these days, and probably spends most of it.
I have no idea why people think celebrities have massive savings/net worth figures. It seems like the celebrity net worth pages online show the pre-tax earnings they make in their films, and assumed that they not only saved every dollar, but didn't even pay taxes, LOL. So many of them burn through money so fast. Although being a father, I can tell you that child/spousal support can really get you, even if you make six figures or more.
Also, does everyone reading this think $2,000 CDN in child support monthly for a baby is fair? ??? Just curious, as I happen to think it is completely fair, especially given that I am not an absentee father - I spend as much time with the baby as I can get, considering that I need to also share her with her grandparents.
I can tell you, I am so happy I made the decision not to get married. I can't believe how screwed I would be if I got married. How can any sane man think that is a good idea? ??? I'm assuming so many celebrities still get married because it increases their star power or something? I honestly can't otherwise explain it.

Has anyone here watched Killing Gunther [Schlierkamp]. Why would Arnold want to kill him?
PS - who here remembers when Gunter's name would repeatedly be spelled Gunther on here and other bodybuilding discussion boards? ;D

Merry Xmas Matt!
Hope you have a great christmas [Schlierkamp] weekend!
Keep fighting the good fight.
2018 is a new year of Peace.

he will be doing triplets with devito and eddie murphy so he will get a nice paycheck for that.
we have to go back 23 years, to 1994 and true lies to find a movie doing good... budget 115 million worldwide: 374 million

Shit movies, but Arnie still gets a paycheck.
Who specifically takes the loss when the movie costs more than it makes? Do they get fired? Do they ever work in the movie industry again?

Thank you, Kwon!
I was talking to a fellow White Supremacist on my birthday, when I had just a handful or two of friends over. Since I paid for all the alcohol and pizza, it was a smashing success. ;D Honestly, I hate socializing [if you want to know what it's like having autism, picture playing music loudly in your car being equivalent in stimulation to what it would feel like to be at an actual rock concert, or in a dance bar on a full house night. It's to the point that my son was given noise-cancelling headphones from his teacher this year. Poor guy. :(]. So to socialize or even have sex chronically overstimulates me. But I had seven friends over on the even of my birthday, and it was a great success. Everyone had a great time, and it doesn't hurt having a huge open bar, with the ability to call cabs for anyone in case they drank too much, and stuff like that. We talked about cryptocurrencies, and incidentally, it looks like there was a market wide crash today, across the board:
https://coinmarketcap.com
Autism-based segue over. Onward:
A friend of mine got off work at 1am, then went home to eat a "bro" meal at home before coming over to my place, because he is on a clean diet. He then came over, and we talked about "White Supremacist" topics. He is as much a "White Supremacist" as I am. And do you know what the first thing he said was? "White people are pretty dumb."
He then said that we are the only race on the planet stupid enough to import the third world and then - as they get the same results HERE as they do in their homelands, despite getting money given to them hand over fist - blame OURSELVES for their failings and lack of integration. And yes, it is partially the fault of White people that these groups don't integrate - but not because we are "racist" to them, but rather because we basically trip over ourselves coddling them, and refuse to do anything even remotely assembling to demand they assimilate. In fact, we ask that White people assimilate to THEIR ways. Proof:

^ Is that THE ONION? Seriously, what kind of a joke is that?!?! Unreal!
And look at what Canada's former "Minister of Status of Women" Patty Hajdu said when Justin Trudeau visited a gender segregated mosque [starting with some of Prime Cuck/Cuck Minister Justin "The Cuck" Trucuckdeau's comments]:
He did acknowledge the gender separation, though, in his remarks at the mosque, saying, “Diversity is a source of strength, not just a source of weakness, and as I look at this beautiful room — sisters upstairs — everyone here, (I see) the diversity we have just within this mosque, within the Islamic community, within the Muslim community in Canada.”
Patty Hajdu, Trudeau’s minister for the status of women, was not at Monday’s mosque event but said it was important to be respectful of traditions for different places of worship.
“So whether you’re in an indigenous community or in a community of faith or in a military community … there are a number of traditions and cultures and standards that the community upholds and I think the respectful thing is to understand that it might not be your practice but it is theirs.”
http://nationalpost.com/news/politics/feminist-pm-defends-attendance-at-gender-segregated-event
WHAT THE FUCK? Did this dumb bitch seriously just say that the "respectful" thing to do is to understand that GENDER SEGREGATION/RELEGATION/GENITAL MUTILATION might not be my practice, but it is theirs??
On top of that, the allegedly "Center-Right" National Post deleted the entire comments' section! It's like they make these articles as some sort of pressure release valve, then remove all of the dissent from the archives, while leaving the article online, so that you can only get the opinion of the journalist who operates himself within the tight parameters of political correctness while losing access to the comments which do not as often do that.
And in any event, of course I understand that Muslims practice this filth. Why on EARTH would I tolerate it or be "respectful" towards it. Meanwhile, look at what this idiot Patty Hajdu says about the male/female gender disparity myth:
“When we see the gender wage gap is still 27 cents to the dollars, and that we have roughly 16 to 18 per cent representation on private sector boards, those are the kinds of stats that show the real reality for women in Canada.”
https://www.tbnewswatch.com/local-news/obstacles-keeping-women-out-of-politics-422229
So this idiot literally believes the most ridiculous myths about feminism, yet has no problem about female politicians sitting in the back upstairs in a gender segregated mosque? Look at the picture attached which shows Ontario's own [first] openly lesbian Premier doing the exact same thing! This is Ontario Liberal Premier Kathleen Wynne, who shares the same moronic feminist views as Patty Hajdu!
Back to Hajdu, while she is addicted to getting Facebook Likes for virtue-signalling, all that she does is call everyone racist and sexist, and accuse them of oppression. ::) Exactly how much of an intellectual lightweight must you be to ONLY have that as an argument? My God...and do these idiots have no sense of the fact that people DON'T CARE about accusations of racism and sexism anymore?
Now look at the lack of respect Hajdu gets when people have the right to be anonymous and to actually speak their minds. People have NO RESPECT for this woman, and rightfully so!
^ Click the link and check out the current Like/Dislike ratio. There are currently 102 Dislikes out of 116 total votes. LOL, only 14 Likes. That is an 88% Dislike rating, hahahaha.

People like this ideologue are the greatest threat to our freedom.
There is no such thing as violence online lol. Absurd use of words.
Men are the victims of violence more than women. way more. Fact.
All this woman is is a supremesist and a pro censor ideologue.
Gender based violence is a mental health and drug abuse problem. Viewing it through a gender lens is a waste of time. But people like this aren't out to solve the problem as their careers depend on it continuing.
Until she can be specific in regards to an area where women are not treated equally by any institutions I call bullshit.
Nice!
And you can read more on that.
This is the reason why I keep saying what I do - not so much on Getbig unless I am prompted. I have done a good job keeping things on topic since my return to Getbig, as I promised Ron. But with that said, I still post dissident material on my Facebook page. If you want to know why, it's because I know based on reading YouTube comments and checking out the popularity of individual videos and comments, that people are not slaves to political correctness as they once were - at least not as many people are, and not to the same extent as they once were.
Sorry for the autism based segue of a segue. ;D

Ha! I wasn't sure if you were serious when you said he was starring in Triplets, until I did a cursory online search and found it on IMDB:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2334867
It's actually nice to see Danny DeVito still getting movie roles...as a father, I was happy to learn that DeVito has a little girl of his own, who is grown up now...well, sort of. Grown up, age wise, I mean. ;D Consider that Rhea Perlman is 5'0...

Although being a father, I can tell you that child/spousal support can really get you, even if you make six figures or more.
Also, does everyone reading this think $2,000 CDN in child support monthly for a baby is fair? ???

I'm assuming so many celebrities still get married because it increases their star power or something? I honestly can't otherwise explain it.
$2000 a month? - ouch. Seems like a lot for just one child. What state are you in?
Having a child with her is practically the same as being married. You have created a financial obligation to HER and that child until age 25 (if he/she goes to college). If she wants to request and increase in child support she can easily do it, and she'll most likely get it approved.
Take home lesson here is; DON'T HAVE KIDS and DON'T GET MARRIED. Financially speaking, these are the worst things a man could ever do to himself. Getting caught in the pussy trap is often very expensive. There are a few good women out there, but they are very far and few between. The reality is 95% of the woman out there today are nothing more than a receptacle for your cock.

Shit movies, but Arnie still gets a paycheck.
Who specifically takes the loss when the movie costs more than it makes? Do they get fired? Do they ever work in the movie industry again?
Great questions, Mr Anabolic, but I can't help you, as I have the same questions myself, LOL. The following are my autistic speculations on the matter, but this is about how much I think about questions like the ones you posed, if you want to get a sense of how my mind works. :-X
Seriously...your questions make me wonder.
Speaking of Wonder...I went to see it with my kids last Sunday. I noticed that it had a budget of only $20 million. Meanwhile, Julia Roberts used to get paid something close to that PER MOVIE, maybe 25 years ago. It has currently earned $158.3 million at the box office. I think White people are more or less over White Guilt, but guilt over bullying is still a thing, and I think that is the draw.
What I think happens in cases like that is that is that Julia Roberts signs a deal for $1 million or $2 million [as with Owen Wilson], and they then get paid something like 10% of box office revenues for all money earned over its budget. So breaking that down, if the movie makes $20 million, Roberts and Wilson would just end up with the $1 million or $2 million specified in the contract. But say the movie makes $45 million - they would then both make 10% for the $25 million over the $20 million budget, on top of their original negotiated pay. So in that case, they would get their originally negotiated $1-2 million + $2.5 million, based on the figure of 10% used above.
In the case of Wonder, since it has earned $158.3 million, that is $138.3 million over its $20 million budget. So it is possible that Julia Roberts and Owen Wilson both earned $1-2 million + $13.83 million for the money over its low budget.
This type of model will allow Hollywood studios to take chances on non-Star Wars movies, non-Superhero movies, and non-3D cartoon movies, which are all basically sure things, and basically the only movies making money these days. People don't need to go to movies like Wonder at the theatre, since they can get a similar experience watching the movie on a big screen TV. So studios negotiating such a deal with actors can take risks on potential flops, since they don't need to pay the actors much - unless the movie does well. This also gives some incentive for the actors and actresses themselves to promote the movie on their social media, as well as do a good job with the role.
If you recall Batman [1989], Jack Nicholson earned over $50 million on that movie due to a back-end deal like that.
Also, if you recall the movie Pain & Gain [2013] with Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne Johnson, I noticed that it had a budget of only $26 million. It was actually the lowest budget Michael Bay movie at the time. Even though the movie glorified filth [the actual people Wahlberg and Johnson played were human garbage. And unfortunately, bodybuilders to boot], I found it entertaining, as did enough others for the movie to make $86.2 million.
I think that is the case, and I am basing it on a 2013 Howard Stern interview with Mark Wahlberg. A few years back, I wasn't sure if Mark was still in the A-list, but it turned out I was complete off in wondering that, as he was actually the #1 earning Hollywood actor this year, making $68 million, even beating out Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who earned $65 million!
Anyway, in the Howard Stern interview, Stern pressed him to tell him how much he makes on movies these days. Stern asked "Can you still make $5 million?" Mark answered "Yeah...you can still make $5 million."
Based on the movie earning a little over $50 million at the box office at the time, I assumed Wahlberg and Johnson had negotiated something like $2.6 million each [10% of the film's budget], and 10% for all profits over the movie's budget of $26 million. So when the Howard Stern video was aired, the movie was just over the $50 million mark at the theatres, meaning that for Mark to say you can still make $5 million would have been consistent with a model like that.
Speaking of Mark Wahlberg, I may check out "All the Money in the World" this week. Looks like an interesting movie...the sort of movie that, despite not having a huge budget and being full of special effects, could still attract an audience at the theeatre:

Thank you very much for this response, Mr Anabolic. It means a lot. I shouldn't share too much on Getbig, and I am in a good financial spot, but I fear being taken advantage of for being too nice, and I fear not being fair to myself.
I don't intend to work ever again, so for as much money as I have, I need that money to last me as long as I am alive - if I am lucky, that could be 50 years or more. I hope, heh.
But the mother of my new baby knows how much money I have, and...I am strongly getting the impression that $2,000 a month is not enough. That is what I currently give her, in addition to RESP investments, and life insurance that I only have to begin with because I am a father.
So yeah...and it's a bit more than that. I really feel like she just doesn't appreciate what I am paying her. I am available to be with the baby any time she wants. But she is mad at me because my house [I live six houses away from her, which is convenient] is messy, so the baby can't be here. :( I do need to work on that, LOL. At the same time, in my opinion, a man/father is pretty useless to a baby, and that doesn't much change until the little one grows to about 18 months or so. So she has made a point to say she does most of the parenting. Yeah...well...isn't that the natural thing right now? I just feel out of place with newborns, as many other men do!
Babies need their mothers, not their fathers. I feel that my job is to pay for everything, and that's what I do...and more.
I just think that there is more to the story than what she leads on. To be unsatisfied with $2,000 a month just leads me to believe I am missing something here. Perhaps she has some previous debts that she wants paid off. She knows I have millions of dollars, but, look at it this way:
Having 8x houses at $125,000 a piece earning $1,250 a month in rent gets you $10,000 a month in rent revenue...that is $120,000 a year, which in Canada works out to something like $70,000 after taxes. That's only $5,833 a month! So if she wants $3,000 a month + another big chunk to the mother of my other two children + RESPs + my own living expenses...even rent money from ONE MILLION DOLLARS worth of houses will get burned up completely.
I shouldn't have told her how much Bitcoin I have, because I think she wants some...but again, on the topic of fairness - is that fair? Is it fair to cash out Bitcoin revenues from investments made in 2013 to pay her? That was years before I got her pregnant...or even met her at all.
I feel that men get a raw deal in family court. :( Why would I want to cut her a check for $100,000 to pay off her house or something like that, and be left with, what, no leverage at all? The way I see it, if I give a nice chunk of change on the 1st of each month, she will need me. I will then get leverage to see my beautiful little girl. I love my baby girl, and as I said, I just feel that men get the raw deal in family court.
Look at how the child support tables are labelled in Canada - "Awards"? LOL. Unreal:

And the Landlord Tenant courts are a part of a series of "Social Justice Tribunals":
http://www.sjto.gov.on.ca/ltb
Is this a joke?! Is this THE ONION? "Social Justice Tribunals"? WOW! What happened to ACTUAL JUSTICE?
But it's not about being FAIR, now is it? Seems to me like it is about revenge! Again...unreal.
Anyway, I know it seems like this post is revealing deeply personal information, but I didn't give out too much information, just the general crux of my situation:
I have a brand new 6-month-old baby with a beautiful 5'11 Icelandic woman whose marriage ended just before I met her. Since she has such amazing genetic traits, I really wanted the baby with her. I do give her $2,000 a month for the baby, and I give extras too - I often bring her lunch, or give her $100 in gift certificates, and just in general, I am completely available to be with the baby. One day I got a text message 1am to be with the baby at 10am. As I stayed up until 4:30am, I was pretty tired, so I ended up getting to her house at 11am, and stayed with the baby until 8pm. My point is, I am super available, super supportive, and super loving. I just love being a dad. I try my best to divide labour in ways where I do what I am strong at - hence why I offer her so much support. But to what end? Is $3,000 a month for a baby fair? If I felt that she was in any way grateful for me, maybe I would give that, but I just don't get the impression that she is grateful to me. :( I think that as soon as she found out that I have over a million dollars, she automatically wanted a big chunk of change, but [1] we're not married, and [2] I earned that money BEFORE I got her pregnant...even before I met her at all!
I don't know...I want to be fair, but in my mind, a person being satisfied and fulfilled by me, is a huge part of what drives me to set certain terms. I just don't think she is happy with $2,000 a month, and it eats me up. At the end of the day, I am wrecked with guilt knowing that the mother of my children is not happy with the support I am giving. And since I do technically have the money, it is on my mind all the time.
I offered to buy her EVERYTHING the baby needs - literally 100% of all diapers, wipes, clothes, EVERYTHING - and give her a check for $1,000 on top of that, to show that I am paying for everything related to the baby, and giving her a $12,000 a year boost in her income, but I don't think she wants that. I think she wants $3,000 a month, knowing it will cost maybe $800 to buy everything the baby needs, so that she can put $2,200 a month. Or - I don't know - put it towards past bills maybe? Renovations to her house? I really don't know if there is an actual issue unrelated to me driving her lack of satisfaction with my current level of support. I wish I did know. We have gotten into tiny spats before, only to realize something else was the cause of her being unhappy, and I suspect that may be the cause here.
Anyway, ultimately this matters since I am somewhat liquid, but you did see the rent revenue figures above - even a million in rentals only generates UNDER $6,000 a month in cash once taxes are paid.
What can I say? Being a millionaire isn't quite what I thought it was, and for that money to last the rest of my life, I simply NEED to budget it. I want to explain that to her - and also that I plan to give our daughter a car once she turns 18, and a house once she turns 18. All of this stuff costs money - a lot of money.
Thanks again for your time, Mr Anabolic. I appreciate it a lot. I need to talk about this with a lot of friends before making any decision. I am such a sucker for the women who gestate my DNA, LOL. Seriously, that is huge for me, so I have a hard time saying no to basically any demand.
-
man thats harsh...
LOL!!!
Short of a lobotomy, I don't see it changing. ;D
Seriously - I do type fast, which is a big part of it.
That being said, unless I cut my long posts down by 90%, I can have no serious expectation that they will be read. That said, the audience that I do acquire is a very interested and intelligent bunch - patient too, which is obvious given that they can read my long posts.
I also realize that when I churn out fact after fact, it is boring to READ such posts, but that they would make good VIDEOS.
For example, check out this interview with Frank Zane...to be honest, I like the way that I churned out fact after fact about Frank Zane's contest history. I think it adds to the quality of the interview. My goal for online content is to churn out facts like that. I'm not trying to praise the overall interview, just saying that I did like how I went over his contest history, and if I get into online video, I intend to churn out facts in a similar fashion to that. It makes the videos educational and informative. But first, notice the actual speed that I talk in this Rich Gaspari interview:
This interview was a better format - fewer questions, and just a shorter video in general. People have NO ATTENTION SPAN, and online videos should probably be kept to 2 to 4 minutes. Now check out how much more slowly I spoke when I was trying to slow down - this is a MAJOR STRUGGLE for me to speak this slowly:
I shouldn't have started the Rich Gaspari interview with "Hey everyone", because it implies a lot of people are watching the interview. In reality, I think bodybuilding interviews are a success if you can get 1,000 views. Semi-viral at 10,000 to 100,000 is amazing, and anything more than that would basically be a Rich Piana interview. ;D
Do you watch Nick's Strength and Power? He has great, fact-RICH videos, that are basically readings of Wikipedia posts on bodybuilders.
But people like that style - just one FACT after another...whats wrong with that?
So if I can't shut up with my SUPER LONG posts, I may as well start making more videos.
As I said, my posts need to reduce in size by 90%. Even this "short" post is too long...
-
^ Even that post is too long. I would like to see that post reduced by 25-50%, and then it would be fine.
So yeah...honestly, I need to just start making more videos. As said, people will have tolerance for things in video that they would not be willing to read, and that's just the way it is. I am glad that some people actually read all of my posts though! It's crazy, but many of my friends have told me they read all of my posts, and do so with great interest. :-X
-
Holy long posts.
Worse than Esfitness.
Don't be like that, you don't have to read them you can always go to another thread. I actually appreciate the effort he puts into his posts. I might not read everything but the links and videos he inserts can be helpful and at least he is trying. Nothing wrong with a tryer.

Don't be like that, you don't have to read them you can always go to another thread. I actually appreciate the effort he puts into his posts. I might not read everything but the links and videos he inserts can be helpful and at least he is trying. Nothing wrong with a tryer.
No, I do not have to read them (and I don't). However, most people don't have to read Goodrums post, but still give him a hard time.

I live by the Centennial Botanical Conservatory in one of the many homes I own on Balmoral Street in Thunder Bay Ontario. My name is Matt Canning. I'm 37 years old. I believe in talking about myself and a balanced diet and rigorous exercise routine which keeps me at 170lbs at 5'9. In the morning if my face is a little puffy from the tears that fell to my pillow while crying myself to sleep after my mother yelled at me the night before I put on an ice pack while doing doing bodyweight squats. I can do 100 now. After I remove the ice pack I post my first manifesto of the day on getbig waxing poetic about Art Atwood and how if he only listened to me he would have lived to be 42. In the shower I get a parsh, but I avoid masturbating because I am going to the clinic to check my sperm levels later today to see if I can produce my 8th child with another one of Thunder Bay's fine single welfare moms, Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine, which includes checking my bitcoin values, arguing on getbig about how Ronnie Coleman should have entered the Northern Ontario Strongman competition in which I sponsor, but as well I competed in the lightweight category at 5'9 and 170lbs. They put my picture in the newspaper I type to BeThere and post the article for the 100th time. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older, and with people who look older, well I fear for their health. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion, while I get into an online argument with Vince Goodrum about how Blacks have lower IQ's than whites and how I proved that by being the best white teaching assistant Lakhead University ever had before they wrongfully terminated me for getting caught masturbating in the genderless washroom writing my strong opinions on facebook. There is an idea of a Matt Canning. Is he a racist? Does he really want 7 more children with 12 strange women? Will he ever get to write for MD?. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can troll all you getbiggers, and you can groan at your computer as I drone on and derail a thread by making the most non related topics all about myself, and maybe you can even sense that I am in fact a talented bodybuilding journalist, I simply cannot separate my crazy opinions from reality.

Marvelous post.
Arnold's movie career will be defined as before and after politics. One era not helping much the other.
The Rock will go down as the biggest muscle action hero in Hollywood history .
He's the only celebrity over the age 40 with the biggest following on social media.
Millennials don't even have a clue who Arnold is or was .....
Yes , you can say Arnold still have a paycheck while theaters are empty. But that's from a Getbiger perspective.

The Rock is at his peak now,when he gets old his revenue's gonna drop and he will have the same fate as Arnold,Sly etc. and someone else gonna be on top.Nothing lasts forever.
-
I had high hopes for The Rock, but with only a few exceptions, I’ve been extremely disappointed. Guy’s a bust.
-
he will be doing triplets with devito and eddie murphy so he will get a nice paycheck for that.
we have to go back 23 years, to 1994 and true lies to find a movie doing good... budget 115 million worldwide: 374 million
is that finally happening? Arnold told me 2 years ago he was doing it but I thought it had been dropped.

Does [Matt C] really want 7 more children with 12 strange women?
YES, YES, YES, YES, YES.
:D
Now...if I bring up child support to $3,000 a month is there ANY WAY that any sane person can argue that is NOT ENOUGH?
Incidentally, that is the legal obligation for a man earning $386,250 to pay for a BABY.
She told me that her friend had to pay his ex-wife $1,500 a month, so it's not like I was paying that much more than that, at $2,000 to $2,200 that I currently pay. I responded "Well...he was married for starters. Secondly, he had two children with her."
That makes a world of difference. My mother says that I shouldn't tell women that I am rich - but in reality, that is how I am able to get them to begin with; they know that I will be able to support them. But we originally agreed on $1,000 a month in cash + I would pay for ALL expenses. So roughly $1,600 or $1,800 for a baby. I met and exceeded that, but now that she knows just how much Bitcoin I have, she wants more.
It's really hard for me to say no to a woman who carried my beautiful child in her body...but I want to do what's fair [and then some], but that includes being fair to myself. It's really hard for me to say no to my children, because I love them...and by extension, it's hard to say no to the women who brought them into the world. It's a conundrum. She did say she would be happy with $3,000 a month, but maybe I will settle with $2,500. It seems like a lot of money, but it gets spent fast.
PS - what happened to "Be There"? ???
Aww, how can I say no to this cute face? And a redhead at that! I love it. I was worried that since my hair was pretty dark and dominant, that my kids would end up with brown hair. I am so happy to have received a blond son and a redhead daughter. :) <3

I saw killing Gunter paid for it on pay per view. I'm an Arnold fan but this movie was super stupid.
Arnold wasn't even in it till almost the very end. Arnold has a great look in the movie.
But don't spend time watching it worthless flick.

Yea arnold looked great and he was good as gunther,
Shoulda been a proper movie about that character, well as you'd expect by the title
