Ryan Gosling, Eva Mendes Relationship: Actor Calls Girlfriend & Daughter His 'Biggest Investment,' Dishes On Being A Dad [PHOTO]
He has a successful film career, but Ryan Gosling still counts girlfriend Eva Mendes and daughter Esmeralda as his biggest blessings.
According to The Hamilton Spectator, the actor not only insists he's lucky to have his girlfriend, but his 16-month-old little girl as well, and the family they have created together is the one thing that matters most to him in this world.
"My biggest investment is my family," he said. "I'm with the person I'm supposed to be with--I'm not looking for anything else beyond Eva--and I feel very lucky that we have a beautiful, healthy daughter, who is an angel. That's investment enough for me."

Gosling also gushed about being a good father for his daughter, and though he wouldn't give himself any major recognition and talk about being a good father, he did admit that it was important to him to be around as much as he possibly could for his little girl.
"You'd have to ask my girlfriend really--all I can say is that it's important for me to be there for my daughter and that I want to be there too, because it's so fun," he said.
But, as much as he's enjoying the experiences of being a first-time father, he and Mendes aren't rushing to become parents of another child anytime soon--despite reports to the contrary.
"Just one step at a time please," he joked.
