6. Why are you disappointed in her?

Did you think she is really any different than most other million/billionaires? Their whole existence is to make money. There are those who do it by putting some money back into their "BRAND" by doing some nice things here and there, but ultimately, they're attention whores. Face it, society craves idols to worship. There is always going to be someone who will give us what we crave. Different forms of snake oil salesmen, but the same game. Making money off of a false belief or charisma, which causes worship in different personal acceptable levels.

Just my opinion. I am no different than most. I have been captivated by exaggerated persona myself, just not to the extreme level, just my personal acceptable level. I just try to catch myself when I creep into that captivation, so I can try to keep grounded and real.
