People always told me that men work more than women, at least in terms of overall hours. And that’s one reason why when you make a general comparison of men’s and women’s earnings in most fields, men usually come out ahead. That’s what Warren Farrell wrote on his book “Why Men Earn More: The Startling Truth Behind the Pay Gap – and What Women Can Do About It.” Farrell is a former board member of the New York City chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW).

Farrell already identified 25 work-life decisions that men and women make in the course of their careers that have a direct bearing on their earning potential. Read more of How Much Women Earn Than Men?

Ex-stripper and ex-Playboy centerfold Anna Nicole Smith appeared at the US Supreme Court this week and sparked a media melee to try to get millions from her late husband’s estate, the late Texas oilman J. Howard Marshall II. The 90-year-old billionaire died in 1995 after a 14-month marriage to Smith. His estate, as estimated to be valued at $1.6 billion, is the subject of an 11-year family feud. She is on her way into a hearing to decide if she can keep the millions she says were promised to her by her late oil tycoon husband.
