Judging from your frequent mistakes in spelling, one can only conclude
that your billionaire "friend" is a "self-made man" and his business
such that a proper education is not a requirement. (A lot of people
collect commissions for entrepreneurial services - how does that make
them "friends" of the business-owners involved?)

Possibly because of them? (Tastes in feminine beauty vary - perhaps
fortunately, at least for the women involved.)

Oops! That lets you out, Mix (I imagine the DO enforce a "dress code"
there).

No, no, no. I said you treat all people with respect who treat you
with respect. I disrespected people in my earlier posts.
I did not change my story of the billionaire. I called the number in
the ad and was put through to a guy who had a lower class accent. At
this point in my earlier career I assumed all businessmen worthy of
associating with spoke "normal" english. So I almost hung up. But he
was saying he was a billionaire and I thought this guy was a nut or it
had to be true. I took his list of furniture and faxed it to my other
contact. The contact bought the inventory and I got a commission. I
was then invited to his house and met his beautiful wife and was asked
if I wanted to meet Senator Kennedy whose office was close by. I
couldn't believe it. We didn't go but went to an Indian resturant
where I showed more of my youthful ignorance. I've learned. What can I
tell you.

I was talking about royals and most successful business people, not
heirs. Most royals are nice because as someone here said "It's their
job". That's they way they grow up. Business people (the successful
ones)are nice because people are way more likely to do business with
you if you're nice. Not a pushover mind you. Just genuine respect and
fairness.

My princess friend knows that people are interested in royalty. What
would she say about these posts? I don't know for sure but I think she
would think it's funny that no one believed me. She's smart enough to
understand all of this. She might be mad that I'm spending too much
time here.

Yes, totally self-made. He only cares if you can sell. No waste or
bullshit in the way he does things. That's why he's a billionaire. He
invited me to his house. He called me a lot. Maybe we're not "friends"
but I say it like that.

What I meant is I have her email address and can email her right now
because we're good friends. I can call her too. I can also call her
father, the prince and his wife, the queen and get right through.

No, the name "Mxmanic" is so close to indentifying my princess friend.
It's staring you in the face but unless you know the who's who's of
world royalty you probably won't know who it is. What was princess
Diana's nickname? Di? That's why I thought you were messing with me. I
don't know who your Mxmanic is but I know who mine is!

No, the name "Mxmanic" is so close to indentifying my princess friend.
It's staring you in the face but unless you know the who's who's of
world royalty you probably won't know who it is. What was princess
Diana's nickname? Di? That's why I thought you were messing with me. I
don't know who your Mxmanic is but I know who mine is!

I would understand? But I do have these contacts and I realize that
that it's sounds unbelievable. I am curious that my sincerity has not
come shinning through my posts, because what I say is true. I see now
I made my own luck. It's not my targe but I'm just going to push
forward until I get it. Success treads on the heals of every right
effort.

Jamie Oliver turned up at the palace last week, to get his gong, and did
not wear a tie. Good for him.
The guidance lines are that one should wear what one feels comfortable
in.

Your idiocy has come "shinning" through your posts, and treads on
everyone's "heals."!
Still, you are a good laugh.
