Who knows? The payments may not all be in cash - Tiger may be giving up stock or ownership rights in things that have the ability to appreciate over time. And/or, Tiger may have agreed to pay out this money over 20 years, or something like that. Maybe Elin gets $250 million now, and $25 million a year for 20 years.

So what if she didn't make any putts? Remember - this is a DEAL. A DEAL that Tiger Woods is agreeing to of his own volition. No judge has imposed this on him - Tiger, and only Tiger, decided that whatever he's getting from Elin in return (silence) is worth $750 million.

Just shows how filthy rich this guy is that he thinks it's worth $750 million and probably doesn't lose any sleep over it.

Whether or not it's an agreement doesn't matter to me. It's unlikely Tiger just offered her this amount of money. She probably demanded more and then they cut a nice deal. That's what makes it wrong IMO.

I hear you, but even if she demanded it, Tiger agreed to it without being told to by a judge or anyone else. He made that decision with his own free will.

So he thinks it was worth it. If he didn't, he wouldn't have agreed to it. There's nothing wrong about that.

Really? Tiger is surrounded by people who don't have his best interest at heart. No advisor worth 2 cents would make these type of recommendations.

wow....spent a lifetime being extra cheap....and lost it all over some cheap skanks

But if they have their best interests at heart, they'd have done everything they could to keep Tiger from parting with money they wanted to earn a percentage off of down the road.

So if they did make those arguments, they STILL weren't good enough to convince Tiger that paying $750 million was worth it. Which makes me believe even more that whatever Elin knows about Tiger is devastating.

I just cannot imagine anyone agreeing to pay that much money in a divorce settlement without doing so with a clear mind. If $750 million doesn't get your attention, what will?

Go ahead Elin! Dumbass Tiger Woods

Maybe he didn't fight it because he knows he was wrong - and it's the only way he can atone.

$750 million is the ONLY way to atone? Bullshit.

It is, if a divorce, money and the kids are what Elin wanted. (Let's remember to whom he's atoning. He doesn't owe us anything.)

I imagine he's apologized over and over and over and...

Ok, divorce settlement isn't an atonement, neither is child support. So again, atonement shouldn't cost $750 million.

It is pretty fucking ridiculous.

$250 million would be ridiculous. Shit, $100 million would be ridiculous. I'm not even going to get back into all the stuff we discussed in the previous thread regarding the way asset distribution works in divorce settlements. I'll just say that number is REALLY suspect. Also, beyond the ridiculous monetary figure, it just strikes me as odd that Tiger would give over sole custody of his kids AND be such a sissy regarding Elin speaking publically. Like, seriously, what kind of revelations could she provide at this point?

anal sex with a man?

Tiger's so called advisor's have a hidden agenda that is obvious as hell.

Regarding a marriage he's stated he didn't want to be in?!!!

WHY?

Nordegren can never speak publicly about Tiger's extramarital affairs and Tiger isn't allowed to bring any girlfriends around his two young children.

this part seems like a lot for them to continue for the rest of their lives! What if Tiger dates someone who is not a whore?

Tiger Woods doesn't want atonement. Tiger Woods wants Elin's silence.

She told him it would take $750 million or more to get it, and he said OK.

He's NOT getting custody of the kids - Elin gets SOLE custody. He CAN'T bring ANY woman with him when he sees his kids, unless he's married to her.

He gets NOTHING for this money EXCEPT Elin's silence. And he has decided that silence is worth the money.

If you want to get mad, get mad at Tiger for doing stuff that is apparently so bad that he's willing to pay Elin $750 million or more not to tell the world what else he's done.

Apparently Elin doesn't think that's realistic, and Tiger doesn't have the standing to disagree with her.

Like that $2 million 2 silence 2 1st chick that satrted talking?

Tiger is dumb as hell....

Unless that agenda is to become Elin's money managers, I can't see what you're referring to.

His advisors suck off the Tiger teat, so if that teat gets $750 million poorer, I can't see how that's in their best interests.

He paid her $10 million not 2. Again

U will when u check thier Swiss bank accounts on the checks cut by Tiger's EX-wife when she get's PAID.

Rachel Uchitel?

She has never said anything about Tiger, so it worked.

But I agree with you in part. Just because Tiger has paid Elin not to talk doesn't mean that anyone else involved in whatever Tiger has done won't talk.

Or, that someone won't start digging and find out Tiger's secrets. Apparently Elin's investigators and lawyers were able to find them out, so someone else could, too.

The only way I can see paying for silence working is if whatever you want to keep secret is known only to you and the person you're paying, and no one else could ever know what it is.

And although I've heard of other things that could further damage his image, if I were him I wouldn't give a fuck. I'd keep my $750 mil, let her go on Oprah and write a tell all, hide on my own island and fly in hoes on the regular. Ain't no way I'm writing that check.

LMAO, you think they gave Tiger up to Elin in exchange for some dough?

LOL, yeah they probably did. But that's on Tiger, too. He should have kept his pen out of other girs' inkwells.

Yeah, I hear that. The only thing that makes sense to me is that if he didn't pay Elin, the stuff he did is so bad that Elin could make sure he would never see his kids again.

I can't see anything else worth paying $750 million for.

I'm gonna say again, respect LOST if this turns out to be true. And I still say it's not. I mean, shit, dude didn't try to offer her $500 million first? Without apologies I agree with all the people who say this is wrong and that Tiger is soft (if it's true). He obviously didn't care that much about her and they haven't been together that long. She shouldn't be entitled to any more than half of what he made WHILE THEY WERE TOGETHER. Regardless, make sure you kids are taken care of and everything is square with me.

But keep in mind, this isn't a forced, judicial settlement. No judge or jury has said Elin is worth $750 million.

She told Tiger that's what she wants, and he said "OK". You can't really say it's wrong - all you can say is you think Tiger gave in too easily.

But HE agreed to this without anyone MAKING him do it.

If it's true.

And I think I covered that. He'll loose A LOT my respect if it is. More respect than he lost for sleeping around like a dawg. No amount of guilt is worth that much money. It's ridiculous beyond the words I have to explain it right now in my pre-coffee condition.

LMAO, get some good coffee!

Like I've said, I think it's more likely that whatever Elin has, it's bad enough that it could cost Tiger the chance to ever see his kids again.

That's why she was able to set her price, and he paid it.

That's why she was able to ask for, and apparently get, sole custody.

That's why she was able to demand that Tiger can never, ever bring a woman around the children that is not his wife.

What else makes any sense? Tiger may be scum, but I don't think he's so stupid as to just start writing $750 million checks for no good reason. Hell, if we know anything about Tiger at all, it's that he's one cheap SOB.

He's the LAST person that would write a check like that. So I think that means Elin has some bad, bad stuff on him.
