Gold Diggers in Training
I couldn't help but comment on the Gold Diggers in training segment that aired on the Tyra Banks Show.
History had a very good reason for Mothers teaching daughters the benefits of marrying for money, but in today's society and in our western world, it is totally a different ball game. It's different because we have no fault divorce in our present day marriages, and marrying for money has taken on a whole new meaning and a whole new result.
In our Gold Digger Nation, it is conceivable to not only marry for money, but to divorce specifically for money. If a spouse doesn't receive what they desire in the marriage, they can contemplate divorce as a feasible alternative. Yes, it's that easy in our Gold Digger Nation.
Watching these mothers teaching their young daughters the tricks of the "system" or Gold Digging in Training, drew me to a few comparisons. I compared gold digging trickery to cheating the government, fooling workmen's compensation, maximizing welfare payments, or faking injuries from insurance companies. All of these have one thing in common, these are all examples of attempting to get something for nothing at someone else's expense. Guess which one is the only legal method of doing this? Go ahead, guess?.....Bingo.........only Gold Digging is legal. Not only will it not be investigated, or questioned, it's actually encouraged under the auspices of "no fault" divorce as an entitlement. Even if you are the one cheating on your spouse, not adding any contribution to the union, or even stealing money, you're entitled to all the goodies of our Gold Digger Nation.
Rather than encouraging their young daughters to be good citizens, spouses, study hard, achieve rewarding careers, and contributing something to mankind, society, or to the neighborhood, they are showing them the ropes to conning some "dupe" and reaping the benefits courtesy of our family law statutes.
Wanting the most and best for your children is great and I commend all parents to do this. Teach them and encourage them to make their own money, achieve greatness, contribute, and help. With 60% of university enrollment presently female, and more women than men now working, there is no present day reason that women can't achieve whatever they want to. Yes, even the President of the United States.
Isn't it appalling that we can condem these mother's actions, yet turn a blind eye to the millions of men (97% of payors are men) being "hosed" in our family courts? Shouldn't we expect justice in our court system?
As long as we have family courts dishing out funds, children, assets, and property from men to women, mothers will continue to teach their daughters the quickest and easiest way to receive without putting forth the work for it. Gold Diggers in training are there because our Gold Digger Nation gives them the pass.

GOLD DIGGER NATION NEWS AND UPDATES
February 1, 2010
Hi Everyone. I wanted to bring you up to date with what's going on with Gold Digger Nation. It's been an interesting experience so far, and we're really just getting started.
In early January, I was hired to sign books as part of a product offering promotion at a show in Las Vegas. Having never attended the Adult Entertainment Show before, it was quite an eye opener. There must have been 30,000 people attending and it felt like I spoke to 10,000 of them. Met some very interesting people, and there was a lot of chatter about the title of the book and its' tag line "why you should remain single". At this show, I was preaching to the choir. Many had dropped by to tell me their marriage/divorce horror stories. Others, just walked by and gave the thumbs up gesture or just laughed at the blown up book cover signage. I came away with a whole bunch of ideas, some very interesting contacts, and exposure to another dimension I had never seen before.
Recently, I've engaged PRPost, a public relations firm here in Toronto to launch my Canadian Media campaign. A press release will be going out the beginning of February and I'm anticipating a flurry of radio, print and TV interviews. The press release and timing coincides with Valentine's Day, a date that is historically linked with bad judgement. Men especially do some silly things, like get down on one knee and present a shiny object supposedly equivalent to three months of salary, as an expression of subservience. The diamond size and cost is linked directly to the sacrifice he has made, as an expression of the degree of love. Valentines is a dangerous time for alot of men as they do some very stupid things, and not thinking of the consequences of their actions. That's the goal of this holiday......wanting you to cast good judgement to the side, and blindly act on emotions and feelings. Be careful!
Gold Digger Nation received a plum of a review from, MotherLodeBeth, a top 100 Amazon reviewer. I was flattered by her kind words and the message she communicated. In addition, a family law attorney contacted me to ask permission to reprint part of the book to give to clients contemplating marriage. It was my pleasure to pass on the information to them.
Check out the website, www.golddiggernation.com. I have added a marriage "test" for anyone thinking of entering the institution. The Canadian Equal Parenting Coalition, and the American Coalition of Fathers and Children are my two charities which will receive all the profits from the book and related projects. I hope to raise as much as I can to assist these two great organizations and the work they do.
I was on Len Connell's show "Sex and Money" a few weeks ago. Len opened the phone lines to various callers. A topic such as marriage/divorce/gold digger nation.....stirs up alot of controversy, and I got an ear full from a couple of them. It was a great experience and Len has asked me back on WKND at a later date, due to the interest in the subject matter.
Thursday February 11, 2010 @ 10:00 a.m, I'll be cutting my teeth on T.V. as WOWTV, channel 808 on Rogers in Toronto will have me as a guest for their morning show. It's not quite Larry King, but I'm excited.
