If someone looked up the word workaholic in the dictionary, one would see a picture of New Hampshire Bears' Keaton Jaco next to it.

Harlow Goldsmith has never wanted to get married or have children. She considers herself a realist and knows all she wants in life is to be financially stable, travel and have sex.
