And yea, I'm not saying you always get murdered you said that, just that you are asking for problems if you are rich in your mid thirties and date a broke 20 year old. That may not sound nice, but it's true. There is a good chance, not 100% but a good chance the 20 yr old sees a slot machine that always pays out (this one did with free cars apparently) and when things go wrong the 20 year can see their future slipping from them ... that's a problem. If you have a family and start dating some 20 year old from D&B's ... with what he has to lose, your thinking with the wrong head.
I don't see the death as any less sad, that's again, just something you have manufactured. I'd say maybe a little less respect for him, but just as sad. Still one widow and 4 kids who lost a parent.
Anyway you don't see a problem with the decision, good for you. But I can see your biased because he's an athlete, 40 reports that this is a girlfriend and you still think people are leaping to conclusions and that she might still be a family friend.

I'm biased because he's an athlete? No, this issue has nothing to do with his previous career. My issue is completely focused on your absurd idea that a rich guy in his mid 30's is at risk for dating someone 15 years younger than him. I'm not sure what world you live in, but relationships between people in their mid 30's and women in their early 20's are incredibly common in the real world, and the vast majority of them end just like any other relationship.
And if you'd like to read my posts I'd think you'd find that the 'family friend' statement was made long before any reports of a relationship had emerged, and that as soon as those reports came out I let go of that possibility. You'd also notice that I have frequently addressed the relationship they were having. Apparently your reading comprehension rivals your low reality comprehension.
