Apparently, then, $300 Coach handbags do not in fact make you smarter, happier, wiser, more intelligent, or more successful in your profession or your marital life. Coach should sue her for dragging their brand down.
What I find depressing (and I do mean depressing) is that the stupid woman clearly thinks Coach is the
ne plus ultra of handbags, and she's all too willing to clobber her boardmates over the head with one of her personal belongings to make a lesser point about Michelle Obama. The lesson with Michelle, of course, is twofold:
(a) what kind of a ****ing idiot becomes the most followed woman in America, and then wears $500 sneakers to help poor people?
(b) Laura Bush got raked over the coals by liberals for exactly the same thing, yet they'll defend Michelle to their dying breath.
Back to greenbriar, and people like her. She's complained that her husband is an alcoholic who is occasionally abusive in one way or another. She allegedly has an alcoholic friend of the family living in her home, as well. There have to be more issues than just that, of course, as alcoholism is both a cause and a symptom of problems...but mostly a symptom.
So she takes cruises and brags about expensive jewelry and handbags. That is depressing if you have any sort of humanity at all.
What I've learned is that no matter what you have, someone else has something even more prestigious. Likewise, if you pretend to be wealthy, you are not wealthy. The nicest people I have ever met are either dirt poor or are filthy rich, but they're happy for exactly the same reason: they like themselves. Yes, you can like yourself and own expensive things, but you cannot aspire to luxury with the expectation that it will make you happier about yourself. I'm sorry that greenbriar cannot learn that lesson.
