It's Cheaper To Keep Her

Evidently Nas and Kelis aren't planning on reconciling......after the birth of their baby boy....straight to divorce court they went.

Nas left an unhappy and broke man..... sources say the judge ruled in Kelis' favor awarding her $55,000 a month in spousal and child support. In addition to that Nas has to pay the mortgage on Kelis' L.A. home, in addition to a baby’s nurse, prenatal expenses and medical insurance, and Kelis' $35,000.00 legal fees......WOW....sounds like someone didn't sign a prenup.

I don't know about you but I think that's a bit excessive. Does Nas really make that much to afford those payments along with his own personal expenses? More importantly, does it really cost that much to raise a child? Besides, what is Kelis going to be doing while Nas is forking over all that money? Sounds to me like she's got it made......But let's evaluate the message that being delivered.

Beautiful woman marries rich, has children and doesn't have to work a day in her life. Has that become the American dream? Has society become so engulfed with beauty and money that core values and morals get lost in the shuffle?

I don't know if I feel bad for Nas....I mean that's the life he choose. Sooner or later these athletes, musicians and high paid executives will think twice before falling for a pretty face and a big booty. Next time ask her for a resume and credit report.....
