Gisele Bundchen saves all of her money, makes Tom Brady pay for everything

I think for the past few years, Gisele Bundchen has out-earned her husband Tom Brady. Of course, when you’re talking about that kind of money, there’s really not that big of a difference between making $60 million versus $45 million in one year. It’s all pretty excessive. But here’s what I never considered: could it be that Gisele and Tom only “live” on HIS money? That’s what Star Mag says – that Gisele squirrels away her millions and Tom pays all the bills:

You would think that Gisele Bundchen drops major cash on a daily basis, but instead of draining her estimated net worth of $290 million, Gisele lets her husband Tom Brady pick up the tab.

Pals say Gisele, 33, deposits her income into a separate account that only she has access to, while Tom takes care of the family’s every expense.

“Gisele doesn’t pay for anything, ever,” says a source. “As far as she’s concerned, it’s Tom’s job to provide for her and the kids.”

I could actually see Gisele saying something like “It’s HIS job to take care of us,” so on that front, this could totally be true. A lot of married couples have that kind of arrangement – the bulk of the man’s paycheck goes into a joint account and the wife’s paycheck goes into her separate account. Of course, this isn’t your parents’ joint checking. Now, all that being said, Gisele strikes me as the kind of woman who knows how to take care of herself financially, and not just because she has $250 million in the bank. She just seems like she could be very self-sufficient and business-oriented.

By the way, Us Weekly had a recent story about how Gisele is taking over the interior design for their Brookline, Massachusetts mansion (which is being built as we speak, apparently). A source told Us Weekly that Gisele “has taken the lead on designing… She knows how every room will look.” She plans on designing a yoga studio too. Oh, and Gisele and Tom also bought a giant apartment in NYC a few months ago too. So… is Tom paying for all of this real estate, plus interior design, plus living expenses? Yikes.

I’m sure you’ve seen Gisele’s breastfeeding pic from last week – I really didn’t get why this photo was so “controversial”? Is it because she was breastfeeding while being pampered and it just seemed sort of out-of-touch? Eh. It’s her job, people. She gets primped like this on a daily basis.
