4. Doesn't say. Pays $20 per hour. Unemployed non-degreed would be
happy to get the work and do a perfectly fine job.

3. In Los Angeles...
"Home office" is code for a staff whose sole purpose is to manage my money and my life.

I worked in a home office for an heiress... I loaded the dishwasher, shopped for her, and did a monthly $4,000,000 transfer to her mad money fund:) There were NO perks. None.

6. What was your degree in? Good lord. I bet that job was loads of fun.

11. Business Admin...
Yeah, closer to $30 an hour... it stopped being fun... the class warfare got on my nerves. I lasted a scant two years.

12. Good pay in my degreed book. But two years was a long time to last.
Hope you did better down the road.

14. I am, thanks...
I'm actually making a little more now, and have far less stress, and I'm Queen Bee as an office manager working in a small office of professional writers... very intelligent, very good people.

I'm so lucky!

9. Yep, a cool $4 million...
Part (1/3 to 1/2) had to be spent on charity for tax purposes, the rest was flying to various homes around the world... which meant private jet rental, cars and drivers, new clothes, etc. This was a portion of the monthly earnings on ONE of the many trust and investment accounts... there were at least 40 of those accounts at that time.
