She was a miserable old fart that hated life. She was a useless old woman that had no class. Just because a person has money doesn't make you a classy respected person. I would shun her and belittle her back to give her a taste of her own medicine. If I ever had met her I wouldn't give her the time of day. When I lived in NY I would hear the terrible stories of her from Mrs. Gucci.


Mrs Gucci was probably a bitch herself.

The way I see it, if you work for a long time for a woman that belittles you and treats you like crap, you probably don't have good skills to work somewhere else. Or, you are willing to sell your soul for a couple of extra bucks. So those who work for people like her and complain are not worth talking about.

I will tell you who was a real a--hole and it was a woman.

New Yorker, "Leona Helmsley" was a real nut job. She was called "THE QUEEN OF MEAN". She always belittled her employees and anyone who she thought was beneath her. She was very wealthy.

She died recently. I am not trying to be insensitive, but I am sure alot of people were relieved.


She was a nut case for sure...she married into money...The crackhead had her husband exhumed from Woodlawn cemetery down the road from me because the cemetery built a musoleum in front of Harry's tomb...Leona decided that it block the view and it was ugly therefore, Harry must be moved...Both of them are now in Westchester co. in some cemetery where Judy Garland is buried...So now there is Dorothy, the Tin Man and the Wicked Witch all together...still missing the rest of the cast.. Confused

Leona Helmsley went through several employees. It doesn't mean a person has no skills it means that some people are tolerant and can deal with criticism. Sometimes you have to deal with those like Mrs. Helmsley as if they have mental issues and brush off their behaviour. It was more than employees that complained about her it was clients and customers that complained. People who dealt with her on the street or in general had problems with her. She was just a pig.

Mrs. Gucci was a very nice person and was not a stuck up or mean.

Mister wiz is correct, people from old money do behave more decently, because they have realized that while money is definitely good to have, it does not guarantee everything. I say let the nouveau riche behave like a**holes, until they isolate themselves. As far as the article goes, I do not see any pay off for being with an oligarch unless you are interested in temporary money and gifts, you surely wont receive love, or devotion from such fickle creatures as the ones described in the article. I do not see the appeal of bending over backwards for someone who is not going to give you what you really need.

I think you are pretty cool too...but you aren't gay are you? Because I am a straight male...and am not looking for a gay latin lover. But yes I am way stoked to see you back and contributing once again to the forum

I was talking to Mrspice, but thank you for letting me know that I can rule you out as a potential lover, if and when I become interested in sword fights.

Whether he is gay or not, is of no concern to me considering I am straight and not looking to host a sausage party anytime soon.
