Sigh... Another rich old guy falls victim to a much younger gold-digging biyach. He didn't even have a pre-nup. What was he thinking? I've read that his new ex is seeking $19K/day living expenses, and she'll probably get it. Couldn't McCartney also seek support from her? Fair is fair. Are there any lawyers here who can explain why ex-spouses are legally entitled to their former's wealth? I don't get it. Once the relationship is over, why should they get anything at all? Child-support, certainly, but spousal support?

Yeah, I cut him some slack, as I've made some . . . unwise . . . choices when it comes to women as well. Paul and Linda really did seem like a devoted couple, even with all the strange goings on around the Beatles. I chalk it up to the poor guy being lonely and wanting to have an instant devoted wife, and Heather Mills being a well trained, skillful parasite. Er . . . that wasn't the most diplomatic way to phrase that . . .

I say he deserves what he gets from "Stumpy" (or loses, as the case may be). I'm sorry but it's more than just rebounding from the death of his beloved first wife. Paul is the poster child for stupid decisions. I mean, setting aside the whole monumental "let's dissolve the Beatles 'cause I'm feeling pissy today"; there's the whole "let's suggest to my good buddy Michael Jackson (which deserves a vote on bad decisions right there) that he should heavily invest in music rights, something lucrative like, say, Beatles music and then get torqued when Jacko follows the advice and outbids me"; followed quickly by "let's wait two decades after John Lennon's death and then try to lay claim to the royalties from all the Beatles music (nevermind that I'm already filthy rich and have music produced independently) because I now want to claim that not only did I do the majority of the work on our co-produced ditties (only letting Lennon get top billing out of the goodness of my heart) but I also (STUPIDLY!!) put his name on music he contributed nothing to creation-wise".
My apologies to those who think Sir Paul hung the moon and stars. I think the guy's an dillhole - to put it plainly! This latest "tragedy" is just more consequences from a long line of stupid maneauvers. Let him suck it up and deal with it!
Really...um, I don't have strong opinions on this one way or the other! ;)
