Rich woman complains that being a millionaire is ‘really hard’

She and her husband, David, earned tens of millions of dollars in the tech world before the ages of 35, and suddenly found themselves in an elite tax bracket without a manual on how to navigate the potential pitfalls of isolation and strained social relationships.

“This book is not prescriptive. This is not how to do rich right. This is my story,” said Risher, who grew up in a middle-class household while her husband was raised by a single mother who struggled financially. That was just the start. After Risher gave birth to her first daughter, her husband’s career vaulted into the stratosphere.Initially, when David joined Amazon, I had just had a baby, and I didn’t identify as a stay-at-home mum. I didn’t identify as a wealthy woman.”

Risher believes it’s more important than ever for the rich to start talking about money. “Our silence keeps the status quo in place and keeps us from examining our relationship with money. It keeps us in our bubble and unaware. It keeps us stuck in that ‘us versus them’ mindset,” she said.

Money doesn’t buy happiness - but it’s nicer to be unhappy in a Ferrari !!!

Yes I know it is

1st class flights or economy? Clean drinking water or go thirsty. All the same really.

BecJuggs it really is a hard life being rich ordinarygirl

I’d be willing to give it a go.

Life isn’t meant to be easy.

Rich or poor, we all face adversity. R8ch people face adversity with personal time on their acerage in the countryside, Poor people will be at work first thing monday morning pretending to be fine.

Tell you what. Give me the money and I'll take the headache and drama for you, love.

Sounds bad

Stay off the medication

This is just to promote her book. I'd love to be millions of dollars poor!

My heart bleeds for them

😂🙄

Needs FGM..!!

poor lady, she can mop floors with me if she wants. next time you enter a toilet think of this migrant's child who wipes the s*hit. yes i came from a war torn country so i'm priviledge to be here. So keep shitt**ng on me on the media and the news. I can take it.

I love the struggle..because you really appreciate nice things when you work hard to get them.

I’d like to find out for myself! 😂

The comments kind of prove her point - everyone wants money but if they don’t have it expect those that do to give it away.

At least she’s self-aware that she is out of touch

My heart truly bleeds for someone doing it so tough....it really does 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Going from considering a daily latte as a treat to being a multi millionaire - heartbreaking. When she signed that Microsoft contract did she dispute her salary - or was that the carrot? She can always give it all away, plenty out there who’d love a slice.

I hear you. Feel so sorry for you but i can help. Happy to take all that money off your hands. Hey presto your problems solved😊

Poor thing

Diddums

Im free, partner swap maybe?

The makeup options are limited, but Rumbi is teaching women of colour to embrace their skinFor decades, makeup brands have largely neglected women with deeper complexions — but after experiencing the lack of diversity first-hand, Rumbi Dzaimudzengi is determined to help women in the same situation. Australia definitely needs more diversity in makeup at the lower price point. Darker skin is so often excluded from the ranges of the larger brands or they have only minimal choice, and then it’s not stocked in stores. 25 pale shades and 2 dark is not good enough. Isn't that cultural appropriation?
