I think the brunette is still very attractive, she's just obviously not 25. She has a very detailed face (not simple), feminine and dark hair that appears to be very healthy. @IMPALEXANDERAVG I agree and sadly most women are in denial about this and some even bitter about it.Another thing to some of the men.JUST because the looks are there and she SEEMS nice dig more please I have talked to so many men that have been burned because they married ONLY for looks. Psychology and PRENUPS. Cheers!
at 2:40 Ginie tells Vessa to rub her wrists together after spraying the perfume. You're not suppose to do that. It's better to spray and just let it dry on your skin. It will last longer that way.
Also, instead of teaching women how to be trophy wives or "arm candy", why not empower them by teaching them how to earn their own money so they don't have to depend on any man to live the good life.
HAHAHA the fact that the woman wearing red studies this for a hobby/career whatever it is, means that she is the epitome of nouveaux riche!!! hilarious! people who are obsessed with talking about money and class are NOT CLASSY OR RESPECTABLE.
I agree that only white and asian women, middle class or above disposable income, under 35, attractive and slender or are willing/able to afford to go under the knife can get a rich guy. If you're an indigenous hispanic, a black or a brown woman, it's very unlikely that a rich man will marry you (have sex with you yes, but marriage no). You'll also have to relocate where rich men are: North East, Dallas/Houston, Chicago, LA/SanFran. You need money to be at rich people hang outs.
@daralhikma1999 well whether or not they are "just fucking" as you put it, they are still together and if i'm correct he just BOUGHT HER AN ISLAND. so i agree with @isobel64.
Do you whose name is on that island's title deed? Have you seen the document yourself? No.
Nothing beats marriage for social climbing, financial security & wealth building, especially not casual fucking AKA dating. Campbell is not getting that ring on her finger, the same thing that happened with A. Clayton (who just had a kid with a white woman) will happen again, when that russian guy will feel broody, he'll get a white or maybe an asian woman to have a child & settle down .
Due to my line of work, I'm in constant contact with white men who range from financially comfortable to pretty rich (old money& businessmen), in private settings they are pretty blunt about the women they "date".They do not think like us. Almost all of them want to have sex with hot brown & black women, but they refuse to marry & procreate with them, as they don't want their children to be brown/black. Only a white or even a east asian women is suitable.
Just to clarify: the dating coach is still attracive and was obviously more beutiful in the past. But her client is ugly--that is why she will never marry rich.
The blond lady is not bad looking, but she is at least 10 years too old for that game and out of shape. If she had been much younger, with a nose job and dieting/training, she would have looked good. She could still do that but honestly she would have to target the 65+ crowd, she's way too old for middle aged rich men.
The problem is that that woman is unnatractive. Being attractive is the most important thing to a man. That is what these women do not understand.
The poor women's looks are why she attracts losers. You can call me all sorts of mean names for pointing this out but there is no use arguing agaisnt reality--like guys crying that they don't get laid even though they are so nice.
Also, the dating coach used to be attractive, I can tell. That and her class is why she married a rich man.
Its a lot easier for women to marry rich than men. Last time I checked, there were about 900 something millionaires and billionaires in the world (men only) and only about 60 women million/billionaires. Also, all of these women were either mid 50s to 60s to even older.
Just hang out at 5 star hotels classy resturants and vip sections at clubs, sporting events and other events and look pretty. weathy men hang out at these places.(AT LEAST THEY DO IN NYC WHERE I LIVE) I guarantee a wealthy man will approach you and strike up a conversation if you are in one of those locations and you are looking gorgeous and under 40. Keep in mind that you can not be broke to do this. Money will attract money! All you need is the right access to wealthy people. Will work 4 men2
Hey ladies, want to know the best way to attract a rich man? Get rich yourself god damn it! You think any of the cunt-ree club crowd are going to jog through the trailor park to sweep you off your feet?
Mabe these methods work for pretty women, especially if your younger than 40. Also, Black women (who are not biracial) may find it extremely rare to find a wealthy man who will not only date, but marry as well.
What about Princess Angela of Liechtenstein (who married a rich Euro prince), European royalty-writer Andrea Lee (who is a Countess), Mary Countess von Habsburg of Austria, Baroness Monica von Neumann who married a baron, and Cecile de Massey (who is a Baroness). These women are not biracial & were accomplished successful women that captured the eyes of their rich Euro husbands.
Let's be real, how many asian woman have married into royalty?
@Lorrnae Black women are beautiful and can attract AND MARRY wealthy men just as well as any other woman can. Don't believe the hype that these high calibre wealthy men who marry black women don’t choose black women and only go for Asian/White women. It is a lie. Ladies believe in your own beauty!!
I am a lawyer,mature and beautiful,and now I am seeking a good man who can give me real love.Recently my friends told me -wealthymencupid.co m- it's where we have the opportunity dreaming about dating a millionaire and make it true!you don't have to be a millonaire.but you can meet one there.I think everyone need to meet some miracle!
whatsinthatbox . :you have to be white. It mostly won't work for women of color: This is not correct. I live in Europe and I am half black and half white and I have met a number of very rich men. It is true though, you must be good looking and the other important thing is to exude confidence. You have to go where they are. For example, Mallorca, Monaco, Cannes, Rome to name a few.
I can tell you this Paris Hilton money is inherited by old money but she is CLASSLESS! So money or inheritance does not matter. I was raised in south la in a single parent household but my mother is an advocate for education and put my sister and I in private school. Fast forward I received my Masters in Instructional Leadership from Pepperdine. My mom would expose me to various things as a child and I know I have class. I dont care what anyone says. I am down to earth but a woman with class!
Good for those who CHOOSE to raise their standards. If you not having luck doing what you have been doing RAISE YOUR STANDARS! It is funny how taught and exposed to low standards and belive this is normal, cool and acceptable it not it is hurting our culture it's hurting people. Some may think this lady is shallow for doing this. To me it seems she has finally come to the conclusion she deserves better (is that such a bad thing?) Success and failure both leave clues why choose failure?
It's not foul. It's life. If a guy's a widower he's available!!!! On Monday I went to a single's outing at a ritzy place. I look like a baby so I think the guys were a bit afraid but you know what?? I'm going back. Why not? If anything it's a way to build confidence. If I can find a nice guy who likes to eat at nice restaurants what's wrong with that? If he likes me & I like him what's the harm??
It's not even about marrying a "millionaire." As this woman said, she was on a date with a LOSER who didn't even have enough gas to drive her home if she didn't give him money. The one older guy was very interested in her!!! Heck, if she got with him she wouldn't have to worry about loaning him money to driver her home!!!
I absolutely loved this segment and I ADORE Ginie Polo Sayles. I was 13 years old when I discovered her book "How To Marry The Rich." I'm so glad to see her now!! She's great!!!
How can Vessa Rinehart, 2:03, wear JEANS? ULGH! Pre-packaged poverty look!
Glad she changed her outfit later on! Jeans on anyone over 18 is disgusting, (to me, anyway). I guess my problem has always bin that I was born N2 an "equality-crazy" milieu, (Jewish cultur) --but hav always wanted t BEST things 4 myself & those I lov. & can't undertand how so many f those I lov DON'Twant the BEST 4 themselves. So I get ashamed f wanting t best.
This is probably the third time I am attempting to watch this video to the very end. I'm not sure what it is about this woman but there's something aversive about her.
@shoujoupdates I actually read her book, and she has some very deceitful tactics including scanning the obituaries to find a lonely widower whose wife has died to pounce on. Some of the other tactics were so foul.
The sad thing is, education and money mean nothing when you reach a certain income bracket. It's all about pedigree. You either are old money, or you're the nouvea riche. Sadly, the nouvea are always looked down upon.
I'm not saying that it's right. It's just the way it is. No amount of education and wealth will put you in their social class. Economic maybe, but not social.
Genie did marry a rich man. But I read, on her website no less, that she had to agree to spend 24 hours a day with him, 7 days a week. They also dress in matching clothes. I'm sure having less money is better than this arrangement.
I love the way everyone calls this shallow, but lets replace the 2 females with 2 males and have 1 making the other over so that he looks classy and looks like money so that he can attract a beautiful women and I bet no one would have a problem with that, or call is shallow! total double standard
@Bahia82 Theres a show called The Pickup Artist that is basically this same concept only they have males instead of females and it's actually a very well liked show in my area...Go figure. How ever I applaud Ginie for this. If a man can do wy not a woman? ^_^
Of course I bet if it was a poor guy trying to marry a rich woman alot of people (especially women) would have a problem with that. You right a "total double standard".
The older guy is ignorant that said, I think you are the class that you grew up in for a lifetime. When a person puts their mind and heart into something, anything is possible.
I know who that is! He is Paul Fussell, a retired professor of sociology at UPenn. He's very elitist. I've read some of his works, and he is extremely critical of people "beneath" him. Oddly, he dislikes the middle class because he thinks that middle-class people are pretentious! He is great at analyzing class indicators, though, such as houses and clothing.
Most people would consider professors to be upper-middle class because of their extensive educations, cultural knowledge, and relatively high incomes. Fussell considers himself to be a member of the upper-middle class.
You are right to a degree, but mostly wrong. No, "anything" is not possible just by way of putting one's mind to something; this is an ideology that has no basis in reality. Opportunity structure is a closed structure, meaning that until you are accepted by the membership of another class, you remain a part of the lower class. Class is NOT about income, folks!
Unfortunately people do not realize that. Most people believe that if you work hard enough, get good grades, and are honest, you will become wealthy which isn't true.
It is a sad fact that even the wealthy haven't realized. Old money doesn't accept the nouveau riche. You are either born into it, or you are not.
People in America haven't realized that we do indeed have royalty in this country. The 1% owns almost 50% of the wealth.
That video is from the early 90's, and Ms Sayles was then already in her 50's. In her youth certain types of food would have been expensive for a lower middle class person. Back in the 50s, Seafood was not as commonplace as it now.
Vessa Rinehart needs a serious makeover. She screams poor white trash. Also, Ginie had to marry an ole geezer which is sleazy. She couldn't handle her own in a corporate board meeting. I got more respect for Ivana Trump than Ginie.
@imhotep1 do you think Ginie was giving that woman tips out of the goodness of her heart? I know she charges for workshops & a one on one is extremely expensive!!!
@Aditi000 The woman probably paid for it. Kind of like men who pay for those how to get a young woman fast seminars. If the woman is attracting losers she does need an objective person to help her see her weaknesses, but she needs to realize there are ruthless selfish rich men too!
Only lower- or middle- class people actually think that. It is well-known that wealth has little direct correlation to one's own earning potential, on average. It is based on inheritance and on positioning oneself to benefit from the work of others. If you have to work for your wealth, you aren't rich, just upper middle-class.
She's never had fried shrimp? I'm far from being rich and I've had fried shrimp before!

That video is from the early 90's, and Ms Sayles was then already in her 50's. In her youth certain types of food would have been expensive for a lower middle class person. Back in the 50s, Seafood was not as commonplace as it now.

Vessa Rinehart needs a serious makeover. She screams poor white trash. Also, Ginie had to marry an ole geezer which is sleazy. She couldn't handle her own in a corporate board meeting. I got more respect for Ivana Trump than Ginie.

@imhotep1 do you think Ginie was giving that woman tips out of the goodness of her heart? I know she charges for workshops & a one on one is extremely expensive!!!

@Aditi000 The woman probably paid for it. Kind of like men who pay for those how to get a young woman fast seminars. If the woman is attracting losers she does need an objective person to help her see her weaknesses, but she needs to realize there are ruthless selfish rich men too!

No. You need to have other people to work FOR YOU.

Only lower- or middle- class people actually think that. It is well-known that wealth has little direct correlation to one's own earning potential, on average. It is based on inheritance and on positioning oneself to benefit from the work of others. If you have to work for your wealth, you aren't rich, just upper middle-class.

I thought the cheap brassy blonde color made her look about 70 years old.

This being the 90's, the style is obviously dated. If you want to know how to look upper class, read french magazines ParisMatch and Gala.

Does anyone else find this remotely shallow?
LaGioiella 2 years ago 5
I do. I think she should work her way up instead of crossing her fingers hoping to "land a rich one"
