The Price of Having a Family in 2011 is just not right!

I recently experienced the cost of wanting to start a family in the land of my birth,Trinidad WI and it required had I continued along the rose-scented path of blind Cupid the following:

1. Marriage without a prenuptial agreement
2. Transfer of cash assets of in excess $8 Million TT to purchase a lease land and building that had only 6 years left on the lease before expiring and the house replacement building cost less than $1 million. The land true value being less than $300000 TT, so we are talking about taking $8Million TT cash and exchanging it $1.3 Million of shelter, but yes I have love and the possibility of progeny, no guarantee, only words to share that shelter with me.
3.Purchase a new vehicle that is worth $95000TT for $190000TT insurance included, and get the opportunity to taxi my love one to and fro when and as needed.
4. Provide $25000 TT per month to run this potential family and bear sole and full responsibility of such while the potential Mrs. Matadeen continues educating and taking care of her needs , and provide a $400000 TT per annum vacation for the stresses of living such a life.

After carefully reviewing items 1 to 4. being of sound and sober mind and having a miserly bent , I stumbled on to the hard rock of truth: I cannot or do not want to purchase this lifestyle, and my heart and testicles with penis are a minority to the rest of my body. Now a business peer of mine crudely put it to me , Matadeen old boy that is an expensive 5 inches ( the length of her vagina), when I shared the experience I was creating for myself with the choices I made. To make matters worst , it was conditional that I had to get a room at an upscale hotel for $2000 per night if I was to get sex, needless to say , I got an asexual courtship, but not for lack of trying for hetero.

To conclude , I am once again celebrating singleness, the real possibility of not having a family because I just cannot afford it , even if I can the price is not right!
