Jon Gosselin Says He’s Too Broke To Pay Child Support Try Getting A Job, Buddy!
As we all know, the couple had a pretty nasty split but are supposedly on good terms these days. I don’t see that lasting, however, since Jon says he can no longer afford to make his house payments if he supports his children:
”I am a single father who’s trying to make ends meet during a recession. What do I do pay child support or rent? I need to support my kids, but I could lose my house, and I need my home to continue to have custody.”
Apparently Jon’s money has run out after all those years on television. Oh, and he hasn’t bothered finding a job since those glorious days of reality TV. He says it’s because he’s still recognizable but I’m not buying it. Remember, people: Jon used to work as an IT analyst is being a Z-list celebrity really a hindrance to that profession? I highly doubt it. Yes, it’s rough out there with the current economy but c’mon, the guy could get a job if he really wanted one. I truly believe that.
Perhaps I’d be more compassionate if Jon didn’t think he deserves a medal for getting kicked off of “quitting” TV:
”I decided to take the high road and quit reality television and now look, I’m going to end up in jail because I can’t afford to pay child support to Kate who has plenty of money.”
Look, I get the sentiment, but Kate being a total fame whore has nothing to do with Jon finding a job. If you want to be a good father, not to mention a solid role model to your children, get a freaking job and stop your whining.
