Gavin
Rossdale Reportedly Wants Half Of Gwen Stefani's $120 Million Fortune For Being
A Stay-At-Home Dad Read more at: http://tr.im/jmioT
I’m grateful to be relaxing
today because I’m off work tonight and hanging out with a friend in a few hours.
However, I truthfully must avoid weighing in on this because I’m not a parent
and I understand that only other parents (both wealthy and poor)can truly judge
this. I admit that the divorce news between Gavin Rossdale and Gwen Stefani was
actually shocking to me because I thought that they would last as a couple partially
because of both the love for their kids and their wealth that would afford them
time to spend time together while having the nannies look after the kids on
their date nights out. In addition, I’m
guessing from the news story that he probably wanted to stay married both out
of love for his wife and for their children (not saying that she didn’t want to
either). It is just that the reason why I
want to avoid passing judgement on either party (Gavin Rossdale or Gwen) is
because it is written in the article that Gavin Rossdale is partially asking
for the financial support to help compensate for the years he looked after
their kids as a stay at home dad while supporting Gwen Stefani in financially
building up her brand. Additionally, Gavin Rossdale is definitely not going to
be the last father asking for spousal support due to the increased expectation
in our society that the father may be expected to stay home for the kids if the
mother figure is making more money (as the emphasis increases on the high
status of women becoming both financially successful career women as well as
mothers). I emphasize that I obviously
see nothing wrong with a mother making more money than her partner as he or she
stays home to look after their kids (i.e.
stay home parent whether the mother or father is doing it). I’m just
saying that as an outside observer looking in that this is obviously going to
continue to happen in increasing numbers as the years go by with the stay home
father phenomenon becoming even more popular in wealthy families in both this
century and beyond.

50 most powerful companies in America
With confidence that I’m
going to live to be at least 60-85 years old, I jokingly say to please avoid
shooting the messenger (when it comes to sharing this Business Insider story on
The 50 Most Powerful Companies in America)
To Get a Job in Your 50s, Maintain
Friendships in Your 40s
SEPT. 26, 2015
I actually received some informative
details recently that many job hires new to an industry can sometimes leapfrog
past other applicants due to their connections and/or relationships to others
based in the field that they are trying to pursue. Obviously, a manager
discreetly in the process of looking at various opportunities (either inside or
outside the company)may more likely have different network and friendship connections
than the same person at the non-management level (whether also looking for
other opportunities within their company and/or in the process of switching
careers). However, the only caveat to following the advice in this article
rests on being able to homestead in the same area long-term (which is very
possible to do if a person works in the privae sector and/or is only in the
military part-time). However, homesteading may be trickier for people who in
certain jobs that may be ok with staying in a certain area but may be required
to move every 2-3 years (such as those in the active duty military, I have met some
who got to stay in the same area for a long period of time while I met a male
who greatly enjoyed his time in the navy and wanted to stay in but was planning on getting out of the navy because
he wanted to stay in Florida but he was being forced to leave Florida and get
stationed overseas). He told me that it was also because he had just bought a
house in Florida that he was hesitant to give up (even with him being on active
duty navy).
I concur with the others on the positives of this article,
especially the healing affirmation as I’m in the process of increasing my
feelings of worthiness. I’m also in the process of working on listening to my
intuition better to knock on the right doors at the right time (lately I have
knocked on good opportunities but had to keep searching due to a situation with
either needing a car and/or more frequent availability). For example, I
received a call back to where the person was actually fine with me searching out
a second job opportunity. However, I was unable to take it because of the car
issue (on the plus side she said that would still keep me in mind for the
future in the case I’m able to purchase a car sooner rather than later). I’m
humbly grateful to have directly seen the issue and to have been considered for
the 2nd job issue, but I know that I only have myself to blame because I
understand that it is my responsibility to knock on the right doors at the
right time for me. Additionally, I intuitively figured out that one of my other
blocks was making sure to make up my mind on what state and area I intend to
live in long-term regardless of my income and set a deadline for taking action
on moving to the area regardless of what
I have lined up (I finally have my mind made up on the relocation issue but I
must keep it secret for now for both practical and spiritual reasons especially
because I promised my husband I would at
least stay in this area for this year regardless of how my professional situation
transpires)
