#millionaire #forgottenlives #heiress
I grew up very wealthy for our area, it does not guarantee happiness. My mother suffered Alcholism and father was not interested in parenting only working for more money. I am only lower middle class but I am sober, married to the most wonderful man and father in the world. My husband children are my wealth and we are incredibly close. I love my life and wouidnt sell it for any amount of money.
Amen!
You’ve got your priorities in the right order , your health IS your wealth .. ❤
Your experience is touching. Thank you for sharing! I work at a local thrift shop and I love my job. It's at fancy nor high paying but I can't wait to go back to work everyday!
@@chastityhunter8018 that which is humble nurtures & maintains blessed happiness & wisdom😊💐✨🕊️
I find your story inspirational
@@dramatrianglethank you for sharing your story. You have the most important things in life. Wishing you a happy and healthy 2024.
I just turned 43.
I’m a successful, single woman, with 2 biological children and 1 step daughter (I left her father, not her)
And I’ve realized the more money I make, the less people I have around me.
I don’t date.
I don’t have a best friend.
I don’t go out.
I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs.
I smoke disgusting cigarettes - I wish I could quit.
The comment section of CZcams is the only “social media” I subject myself to.
Along with my children and aside from my adult step daughter, my disabled/elderly father lives with me and I take care of him in my home. He will never know a retirement facility. My mother passed away in 2017 and I cared for her at home, as well.
I don’t feel alone, or lonely, I don’t feel like anything is missing in my life.
It would be nice to have someone, but it’s not necessary.
I’d rather be by myself and peaceful, than upset because of behaviors/actions of someone I chose to share my life and space with.
Dating these days is often similar to dealing with a misbehaved child than a grown man, anyway.
They lie, sneak, argue, throw fits, it’s work to compromise, etc.
I’ve never known a man who didn’t come with some degree of pain to inflict.
Minimal is still more than I care to deal with.
Quite frankly, who needs it? Not I.
I’ll know who he is, if he appears, but until then, I’m happily wealthy and loved, and can live the rest of my days as such.
Women - keep your money and peace. Travel. Love your family. Men are not necessary, so just wait until you’re absolutely sure.
And always remember: 1 red flag is still too many.
Are you a scorpio?😊
@@Liweiyang43 lol. I’m a stereotypical Sagittarius whose had a lot of fun learning several lifetimes worth of lessons in half of one, just to gift myself a smooth ride til the end.
Oh! The lessons we’ve learned… if I knew then what I know now! Hats off to you!🌻
@@audreyguilbeaucalhoun5713 yes, exactly lol
I share the 🌻 as a sign of respect/agreement/friendliness, as well 😊
Wish you a blessed and beautiful day!
I’m glad to read this. It always seemed that there were 5 minutes between relationships when I was young. Alone now for 12 years and you’re so correct with your statements I had to laugh! Love it! Good on you for taking care of your parents! I do hope that you get to go out and catch some live music once in awhile though! And bring Dad! There are so many elderly people in my audiences and alot are still dancing!
My great-grandmother Madeleine Haseltine was the Matron of Honor at Barbara Hutton's wedding to Cary Grant. They remained friends until her death. Boy, did she tell me stories...One thing is absolutely true though: Cary Grant was the only husband who never took any money from her. On the contrary, he gave her very expensive gifts and stayed a loyal friend until her death.
True. The only one out of six.
I love this! I'd love to sit and chat with people older than me, their stories and "chats over a cuppa" interests me FAR more than pubs and clubs 😊
He is my Uncle ❤
@@BeaullahBelle-pc4em how lovely 🥰
Ann Cooper Hewitt's story is the absolute saddest one ever.... All horrible humans who participated in the disgusting "medical care" she received. Gladd Ann fought the situation, and didn't let her evil, horrible mother win. What a sick woman to do something so despicable.
If you're wealthy, DON'T MARRY. Such an interesting, but heartbreaking video. Money can buy a lot, but nothing can replace a loving, supportive family.
That’s why iron clad prenups come into place. Does Kevin Costner ring a bell? 😉
@@thebelissima64 In most states prenups only last a certain number of years. The unfortunate women in the video shouldn't have married unless they wanted children and even then should have known the men for a couple of years before marrying.
Or Paul McCartney? @@thebelissima64
It’s not always like that. When Katie Perry and Russell brand divorced, she was far wealthier and he was entitled to a large chunk of it. He declined. He knew it was morally wrong.
You can marry if you want to,but only reorganize your money before you marry,making sure no one takes advantage of your money.
Huegette Clark’s relative’s who hadn’t seen her in 60 years were bold for going to court to contest her will. But even more strange is they won.
Oh you have to read about the nurse as well. She was as shady as the relatives were. Maybe even more so
I’m guessing they promised the judge he’d see his cut?
They wanted to see her but her twisted mind led her to trust the strangers who imprisoned her in a bleak hospital room and to be paranoid of her siblings. Her siblings were much older than her and that may have been a factor in her estrangement from them.
Her father earned the money and he should have distributed it among his children.
She probably had a reason to trust a "stranger ", the only person who cared about her. Nothings stands between me and my sister when I miss he, and I travel to another country, 16 hours flight, to see her. That's why assume that they=relatives) were not eager to care. It is hard to judgewhen you don't know all details, but it is a weird situations to me.@@chrislastnam6822
Yah they paid off the judge
Back in the late 80s I worked as a nanny for a very wealthy lady. Her family was so rich they had their own private jet. She was very nice and treated me like family. Many evenings after I had put the kids to bed she would pour us a glass of the finest wine, we would sit down and she would confide in me. She would tell me about her fake friends and other personnal problems. She lived in the lap of luxury with the very best money could buy yet she was not happy. Money buys privileges but does not buy happiness.
Do you know why, as an angel of empathetical feelings ... you were positioned into her life?
You had a vauable additive to help her life. Someday God will reveal all these mysteries to you. Be comforted and bkessed. L
@@lettiee4726 Thank you! I was just puzzled that I was one of her servants and she needed my shoulder to cry on. Maybe that’s why wealthy people spend so much money on therapists because their so called friends are not good listeners. In my opinion real friends are there during your ups and downs. We are in touch to this day and her three boys, the ones I so lovingly looked after for three years are now married, two became attorneys and one a physician. I am so glad they are doing well 🙂 Have a wonderful 2024! 💐
@@thebelissima64 Blessings to your life and tender soft heart. Our Father has great and fulifillable lifes's adventures in store for you.
Give Him all praise and glory. Im a retired grandmother of 73 yrs ... with two daughters of almost 50 yrs old. I have twin 13 yr old grandsons and I am dedicated to what God has for me. Ive worked in paid positions for 50+ yrs ..
Retired for 8 yrs and i keep adking ....
. God, whats next !
Hang on . Pull up your boot straps ... gird your loins and march into Gods purpose for your glorious life.
Hugs, L
I experienced the same thing when I was a nanny. The mother was much younger than the father. She told him she was on birth control got pregnant because she thought it would make her happy. She had no idea how to parent and they both became serious alcoholics. The child was completely ignored.
I imagine something worse ,being unhappy and broke ,don’t underestimate the privilege of money.
I' use to work for Woolworth, it was a good company,,they gave you ,good healthcare, stock in the company,training,raise,everyone at Woolworth worked, no one was lazy,from the workers, to the managers.
Woolworth was my first job as a teenager.
That's how it should be still.
They cared about their employees being healthy and happy and loyal.
This 'CEO" takes all shit has ruined everything.
I worked at Woolworth when I was 16. It was in our town mall & I had a blast. This was back in the 80s. Great times..
I miss Woolworths. Great store.
@@serenitypeaceandcomfort3669 Me too.
It's scary to have lots of money in your old age and not have family that you trust.
Trust me. It's scary to be in old age with or WITHOUT money and not have family that you can trust. Or any family at all. Especially these days because everyone will try to take advantage of you and no one cares about you. It's as if a support system is expected and if you don't have one, you don't matter and are fit for the shoveling.
I'm so sorry this world has you feeling like this,but this is all temporary! This life is but a vapor it says in the Bible. Fleeting compared to whats next!
Mostly I pray and do hope you know we have Jesus Christ as our very best friend always! I promise He is right there for you now,and by His Holy Spirit He can show you who to trust and how to find all that you need,just knock He WILL answer! He does! Even when I don't deserve it He has! ( which I feel I never deserve His help!) May the Most High bless and keep you dear,may He fill you up today with His true and everlasting joy ! The joy that this world has no knowledge of! I wish I were you guys neighbor and I would check on you,make sure you were ok,plus you'd know you had me,my husband or my daughters and their husband's to help in an instant ,you'd know you weren't alone,with no one to care for if you were next door to me,I'd welcome you to be a part of my family! This world sucks,Jesus already told us how it would be,but He promised He'd never leave or forsake us while we bare what we must bare here in this temporary backards place!
Leave it to charities and organizations that you support and that you trust.
Family will only fight over it when your gone from this world.
Even the poor have family fight over possessions when someone passes.
I know people who kiss up to family members in older age just to get on their good side and in the will.
@@Missticc Are you jealous of rich people? Most rich people leave almost all of their money to family members and that's how it should be. Wills and trusts should be very specific so people don't fight.
@@Missticc The only way I would leave money to charity is if it was specifically stated in my will that every penny is to go to direct relief for whom the charity is supposed to help.
It is a fact that something like 80% of the money donated to organized charities goes to bloated executive salaries and administrative costs.
Charity is a wonderful thing but ONLY if people (or animals) are actually being directly helped.
Barbara Hutton could have had so much fun, rich experiences, sharing, giving and really enjoy life if only she had been able to ignore the male money predators and be comfortable in her own company. Woolworths was a stable of the UK high street, spent a lot of time buying records and indeed all manner of things from an early age. Always sited in interesting architectural buildings as well. Sad when it went.
Unfortunately at her times the women were accepted in high society if they married, so she did, but without proper education and due to her own stupidity she wasn’t able to put it in good use.
So agree!❤
Drugs and alcohol , self- loathing, unnurtured, and the isolation of wealth were the real culprits. Also, the role of women in society played a part in her unhappy life
I agree!
I agree to 😮
I really miss Woolworth stores
Huguette Clark’s estranged family members straight TOOK that inheritance from the people & charities to whom she wanted it to go. Why any judge would think she wanted that money to go to a bunch of people she’d never met or hadn’t seen in 40-50 years, over the people who provided her care & companionship on a daily basis, & the charities that seem to have been such an integral part of her nature, I cannot understand. How disrespectful!
Greed is ugly. 😞
Fascinating video. ✌🏼
Judges , politics and money.
Judges are easily bought
Corruption
The nurse was as shady as the family. She did some unethical things. The money should’ve went to her charities
Over the years I’ve seen some true ugly colors come out when people die.
Farmington CT!!!
My mom used to threaten to send me to Ms Porters School for Girls before I realized you needed to be super wealthy and connected to go there (I’m a born and bred CT resident and live about 30min away)
Once I discovered this and threw it back in her face, she just began to threaten to send me to Girl Scouts 😂
Hey, neighbor! 👋😃 I’m from CT, too. I moved to Southern California, in my 20’s, but stayed just a few years. There’s something about Connecticut that makes me not want to leave…it feels safer here. 😊
What happened to the nunnery?
What was so bad about Miss Porter's School? Jackie Kennedy went there! I'd rather have had my parents threaten to send me to Choate or some boys boarding school such as that rather than what THEY used to do which was to threaten to send me to a military school!
I grew up in Bristol near the Farmington line and knew a few people who went there. lol
@@tonydipietro5553 ah, I worked in Bristol for about 10 years.
Even in the depression, giving a million dollar party is crass, but also those people who were given work when non was to be found surely welcomed it
Apparently she didn't realize that in hard times,the proper etiquette for the rich is to be homeless. Prince William? Homeless. Hitler? Homeless. He spoke the King's English I mean German and his painting skills reflected a similar caliber of training. But he was homeless and he stuck to that story and nobody can prove otherwise.
Alva Vanderbilt didn’t just claim ailing health. Her & her Dr faked a heart attack while locking her daughter in Marble House in Newport during the summer but refusing Consuela any admittance into Alva’s suite of rooms isolating her daughter away from her secret fiancé. She told her daughter her refusal to marry the Duke was killing her. The Duke was incredibly cruel to his wife and told her on their honeymoon he did not care for her all , married her got the money and would continue his affairs. She could have discreet affairs after he she provided an heir. She provided two whom she adored greatly. She later divorced him and married for love.
It did mention Spencer-Churchill & knowing the cruel streak that goes through the Spencer men wonder if it was in this case too. Many royals in Europe including Britain were in need of money to upkeep the ancestral home & land.
@@Rose-jz6ix He HAD to marry someone rich. Blenheim Castle was in disrepair and needed the Vanderbilt millions. It was a sad marriage...both were so unhappy. All because Alva wanted a 'title' in her family. Her daughter was in love with someone else but THAT was not enough for Alva. She is the devil in this story.
The cruelty of aristocracy and the greed and desperation of a mother in need of her social standing. She made the best of it, though
One of the few stories with a happy end. At least for Consuelo. The Duke was not so lucky in his second marriage.
I stayed in the Copper King Mansion which was the Montana home of Huegette's father. We stayed in her sister's room not hers though. Highly recommend at least a tour.
My great aunt was one. She was a New York debutant who married a bankrupt Dutch baron. When their sons died in War the baron had her committed to a mental institution so he could remarry and have more heirs.
That is so terribly sad for your poor great aunt to be treated that way. Heartbreaking 💔
I'm sorry for your great aunt. What happened to her was horrible. Losing sons in the war and then being committed to a mental hospital. The poor lady!
But I DO have a question. Where does the MONEY enter into what your great aunt's husband did? This video was about very wealthy women and their sad lives. Also, in which war did her sons die?
@@retroguy9494She was a New York debutante which means she was from a wealthy family .
Oh my gosh that’s so horrible! But it happened more than history wants to admit!❤
@@BlackStump172 Not all debutantes have wealth. Some come from very old families. You know, going back to the Mayflower or shortly thereafter in the 1600's. I come from one of those old New York 'Knickerbocker' families myself, my 8th great grandfather having come over from the Netherlands in 1650. In some cases, the money was all gone but the family still enjoyed the status of being in the top social class.
My fav doc this year! So well done w/dates & pics for almost everyone mentioned, so great. Thank you
This channel is terribly underrated.
Subscribed.
Thank you very much for your hard work while making these videos.
Barbara Hutton's story always touched me. She was a very lonely woman and so many people who should have shown her love betrayed her and used her. So sad. The press were the same vultures they are today.
All these females got their fortunes from males who made the fortunes
Oh please. I'll save my pity for those much more deserving🙄
The Hugette situation just fumes me! Poor lady just got robbed of her wishes ! I'm so angry for her.
Even though I know all the stories of these women (because it's a special interest of mine), I still loved this video. Hugette deserves to be better know because she led an absolutely fascinating life in her apartment.
lol literally ppp
This was so interesting, a pleasure to watch & listen too. You have a lovely voice- and pacing is delightfully paced- so enjoyable. Thank you for your work!
Men
😊
Huguette was also a gifted artist.
My mom used to live close to dukes estate. It’s absolutely beautiful to visit and has an amazing orchid green house
Are you speaking of Duke Farms in New Jersey? If so, yes, it IS beautiful. I've been there as well. Although her mansion there is now torn down. It was infested with, I think, termites and was beyond saving.
Thorstein Veblen wrote The Theory of the Leisure Class which explains why we look up to the very wealthy.
Speak for yourself. We don’t all look up to them. Most of them acquire their immense wealth through exploitation of those weaker, with fewer resources than themselves.
I realize that having bad things happened to you is awful. I it is worse when you have no money. Money changes everything. Bad things happen to everyone.
It makes things more complicated, actually. Money causes problems and solves problems at the same time.
Barbara Hutton was so desperate for attention and love that she never took the time to do something just for her. Instead of get married with the next men, She could have enjoyed her son more, learned a fun hobby. Sadly she filled the emptiness with men that just wanted $$$. In the end: no son, no money, no status, no man, no friends. It is a sad
I totally agree with you 💯, l was thinking 🤔 the same thing
It really breaks my heart for Barbara Hutton. She was such a gorgeous lady but was so used by the men she chose! She deserved so much more but her family was so dysfunctional she just couldn’t make good choices!! God bless you Barb!
Couldn't make good choices? That is an oxymoron. I had a terrible evil childhood. I made a lot of bad choices throughout my life until my late 30's. With a choice, one has the ability to choose. Yes, her life was very sad. But she also had the capability and finances to choose better. She didn't.
Consuelo Vanderbilt sounds like she was such a nice person.
I really enjoyed the first story because I use to shop at the Woolworths store as of 1993 before the chain of stores closed shortly after that time..sure do miss it😢
The third one Huguette Clarke's Nurse has some explaining to do ! I am glad there are rules and regulations in place nowerdays to stop anyone in aged care gifting their carer's their entire estate when they are at their most vulnerable. Very well made documentary. Loved it. Thankyou !!
Yes! I am a nurse and I remember reading about the unethical things the nurse pulled with some shady lawyers to get to her money. It was shocking
My neighbor was Audry Hepburn's final nurse in Los Angeles and went with her to Switzerland, caring for her until her death. Ms. Hepburn was very grateful and left her a modest amount for her childrens' education. She said that Ms. Hepburn was a very kind and loving person and had a smile for everyone, even during her painful last days.@@11Christys11
I had neighbors who were very wealthy. I was very friendly with the man. When the wife needed to go into a long term care facility, her husband went to see her every day and stayed all day and into the early evening. One day, before the husband arrived, the staff tried to bully her into signing over her assets to the facility even though her bills were already being paid. She was a very smart lady, but also very ill and told them they needed to wait for her husband. When he arrived and found out, he was so livid that he reported the incident to the State. He also threatened them with legal action if they ever spoke to his wife again about any financial matters.
❤
I was never rich, but when I had more money than I ever had in my life I took it for granted.i only appreciate things that I had and then lost and slowly earned it back.
Narcissism was already prevalent among the high society.
Narcissism has been prevalent for centuries. They live among us 😢
Classic examples demonstrating that stuff does not make happiness. I worked for wealthy people when i was young and saw enough to teach me that happiness comes from within. Im 70 now & feel ive had a much happier life than any of these women.
If I can please ask when you said I had better life than many of these women, do you mean the women you worked fhr ? And if I can ask were they addicts ?
Oh I really enjoyed the Huegette story. Hughette and my grandfather were first cousins through their mothers. Too bad she was not exposed to her common family
If you say so.
Proof???
Why are you people doubting what this woman said? I believe her! I'm a distant cousin of Vincent Astor who's father JJ Astor went down on the Titanic and was the wealthiest person on the ship. And I CAN prove it! I'm related to him on his mother's side. She was JJ's first wife.
Great video as usual! I think Cristina Onassis would be a great biography to do.
Yes I agree.
The poor woman was so miserable. Just so terribly sad.
@@golden8972 I remember that her story was sad, but not the details of it.
@renaissanceinblack She was Jackie Kennedy's step daughter. Christina was the daughter of shipping tycoon, Aristotle. She was just like these other women: endless money but no true love from anyone. Used by so many for her money. She adored her daughter, Athena. I think Christina was about 38 when she died. Heart seizure if I'm not mistaken.
@@golden8972Athena’s story has been sad .
These stories remind me of Dominick Dunne’s stories in Vanity Fair magazine. So in depth and interesting. I miss him.
That was marvellous!
All tragic heiresses . I’m going to listen again
These were sad stories. I watched these videos individually but have thoroughly enjoyed watching this video and another compilation video you did either late last week or earlier this week. Keep up the great work.
Could you please create chapters in your videos? This makes it so much more convenient for watcher, especially long videos
It's not that money doesn't buy you happiness, it actively causes problems. My mother died 12 years ago and left $800k to me and my two siblings. My sister stole most of it and now I have no contact with anyone in my family and live abroad.
Hugs I'm sorry that happened to you 😢
Doris Duke also founded the Newport Restoration Foundation. I had read that part of her ashes were also interred in a midwestern town she often visited. Nice work on this documentary. I enjoyed very much!
Yes that's true. It was Marshfield, Missouri. She had attended some tent revival meeting there many years prior and took a liking to the town. So Bernard Lafferty sent a small container of her ashes there and they were buried in the local cemetery.
Murderess.
Your video is incredibly impressive! The research, photographs and your story telling is perfection! Thank you for a very well done historical perspective that is extremely interesting. ❤
I'm genuinely surprised that Maryann didn't arrange for Ann to have an "accident". What a greedy and heartless woman. She would have squandered that money even faster than she did with her own inheritance and died in squalor, anyway. Just deserts.
Money does talk,mostly,but the downside is that you are never sure about people's feelings towards yourself, so creates deep seated anxiety,but the mother is on another level,to be constantly watching to manipulate ,disgusting trait,in her mother,self seeking ,selfish b...h,thanks again for these terrific ,well reported stories 👍😊
Yes, money talks but all it ever says to me is, 'Goodbye!' 😂
It’s like pretty privilege
Good morning Forgotten Lives. Thank you for this super-long long video of women whom have wealth that is mind-blowing. 🤯 As, always interesting and not a disappointment. 😊
Congratulations on creating another outstanding video! I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to your next video!
Congrats! 290K!⭐ Here for your 300K soon! You deserve much more. Thank you for your awesome work throughout the year. This histories is amazing as your narration
Just subscribed. 301+ thousand subscribers! Yay! ❤❤❤
Just want to say I enjoy your videos of these heiress a lot. Very informative with valuable vintage photos you provided. Just subscribed to your channel too. Do keep up the good work.
Woolworths five and dime store was fabulous. Still miss it.
A interesting series would be about the wealthy who have had relations who disappeared, and those who were kidnapped and murdered.
Well, that's a common story among lottery winners.
I was just Blessed to run upon your channel. I loved everything about it❤ WONDERFUL! YOU HAVE A FOREVER SUBSCRIBER❤
One thing I learned..if you want wealth to run in th family name your children appropriately..that being said these young women's lives prove money doesn't equal happy untroubled lives just like anyone else. Also would love to read th books written about these women nd get full details so fascinating..thank you for th content.
Great video! Just goes to show you that immense wealth doesn't make you happy sometimes!
I grew up wealthy with wealthy classmates and none of us were actual happy. Most of our parents were divorced or divorcing as we were growing up. It took my parents twelve excruciatingly long years to divorce. I was caught in the middle and my parents constantly bought me presents to try to make up for it, but it never replaced their lack of sanity and stability. :/
Excellent. There is a recording of a telephone call between Hugo and her nephew. It's available through your public library at least it is in Vancouver BC. She didn't visit in person but she enjoyed visiting on the phone. I've read many stories about all these women and their families. There was some new details I enjoyed hearing. All in all, thoroughly researched and entertaining. Thank you. XoXo
Which one are you referring to? There are several stories here?
Merry Christmas. So happy to see your channel grew!
Thank you for great stories ❤ fabulous to listen to after Sunday morning chores or at night with a lively beverage ❤❤
I am sure that James Cameron took inspiration from these ladies’ lives when he wrote the character of Rose in Titanic. Wasn’t her full name Dewitt Buchanan? I heard those names somewhere in this video. Very well done! New sub here 👍🏽💌✌🏽
Thank you for sharing these interesting stories. Sadly, some of the people surrounding these ladies were so greedy.
My grandma was born in 1933 and around 1952 she had a job at Woolworth's. There she met a man who she got pregnant by but come to find out, he's married with 2 daughters. When she tells him she's pregnant, he says "Good, now no one will want you but me!" And this is how my aunt was conceived... Doesn't this mean Woolworths owes my grandma back child support? 😁
Obviously this is a joke... Although, it would be nice. Too bad they don't hand out checks for shitty smooth talking men knocking up innocent girls. I say innocent because my grandma didn't even know how babies were made exactly until she was pregnant with her own. Oh, and jokes on that guy... my grandpa came along a few years later, married my grandma, adopted my aunt and then later my dad was born.
Love stories like this!😊
My father ,born in 1919, was stolen from the hospital by my grandmother. Her child died..she took my father on her way out..
I've got a better joke; What if the reason these "Gals ' Stayed secluded and the real reason They couldn't have kids is because secretly they're Men....I mean c'mon look at the pictures and these cockamamie stories are right outta a cheap novel from a.5 n.10 😅
Hutton had so much going for her. I don’t get the sadness. She married the wrong men and made stupid decisions.
@@msher33 mental illness.
So interesting and stories supported with great images, loved this!
So well done. Thank you for just sticking to the facts.
Barbara was a beauty and Doris was scary scary looking, IMO
Incredible work again! I love all your compilations, they have the best stories!!
Really enjoyed these stories look forward to more of them 👏
Very good. Always enjoy your uploads.
THIS WAS FANTASTIC ! I COULDN'T STOP LISTENING ❤❤❤❤
These women were weak with no resilience. that is why they fell for the trappings of their minds. A lot of us would take those millions and make miracles in people's lives rather than waste them on those men and addictions
Well done. You tell these stories in a kind way. Regarding Doris Duke, its well known in Newport ,Rhode Island that tbe paperboy was present at a crucial time of the accident. He has come forward in the last 2 years after his father begged him to keep quiet many years ago for fear of lethal retaliation fron Duke.
I live on Long Island NY which has many very wealthy areas. Whenever I go to a Starbucks or something in those areas I encounter the most obnoxious people I have ever met!
I think when people do not have meaningful work, they fill their lives with useless things and useless people.
Very thoroughly done, great info. I've read about three of these ladies, and I learned a few new things from you. ❤🎉
Bravo! Wonderful! You put a lot of time and effort into this presentation! Thank you! 😊 ❤
By the time I was raised in a place where the wealthy people were I had been asked by three men who tried to pick me up. Thank you Mom and Dad for making me aware of this danger
Thank you, for posting a portion of this rich history. It shows that 'he who is not happy with little, will not be happy with much'!. Bless them all.
Thx. Very interesting and a good array of photographs,
I look forward to ALL your videos ❤😊.
- Happy holidays and New years 🎇🎉 if you don't upload again before the end of the year.
Extremely entertaining keep up the good work
Thank you for all the work you did to put this video together. I throughly enjoyed it.
Great video .Thanks for all your research.
Amazing work - good on you👍
Enjoyed immensely!
My son lived next door to Shangri la in Hawaii. It’s a museum now
Wonderful. Thank you!❤️
Outstanding Documentary 💯
Well done ✅
Thank you. Totally enjoyed these documentaries.
Enjoyed this immensely! ❤
So glad!

There is a 1967 Disney movie called the happiest millionaire, it is a based on the memoir of Cordelia Drexel Biddle, who was married to Doris Duke’s first cousin Angier Buchanan, Duke.
The movie is memorable for a dozen alligators, a character who eats chocolate cake for breakfast, and the fantastic Tommy Steele.
Clark From a biography of her I read, was an extremely entitled woman who threw money around to get what she wanted. She was highly demanding and oblivious. She also loved her dolls. It seems that she may have been neuro divergent. The bio was very interesting, and you’re correct; I wouldn’t want to be her.
