Why You Should Always Make Laura Blankfein Wait In Line

This story never gets old.

---

Why...because she'll flip her lid and this will happen:

Laura Blankfein and her friend Susan Friedman, wife of another Goldman honcho, Richard Friedman, caused a huge scene at Super Saturday in the Hamptons last weekend when they arrived at the event before the noon start time and balked at waiting in line with the other ticket-holders.  "Their behavior was obnoxious.  They were screaming," said one witness.  Blankfein said she wouldn't wait with "people who spend less money than me."

Another observer said the women were so impatient, it was as if they were waiting on line for a kidney transplant instead of a charitable designer clothing sale.  Friedman shouted at the event organizer, "You have lost so much money because of this . . . Why should we be treated like the $650 donors?"

Sources said Blankfein and Friedman had bought tables with blocks of tickets going for $833 apiece, as did many of the women who were waiting patiently in line, happy to raise $3.4 million for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund.

In the end, the hot-headed duo got in at 12:03 p.m., three minutes after those who arrived before them.

Lovely.

I would consider it an honor to make them wait.

Much like their fellow travelers, their arrogance will be their downfall. Just a matter of time

Well, wealth does have it's privileges or so it now seems in America. If you are rich then you can get away with anything & enough lawyers to smooth life.

What a couple of low-rent, piece-of-trailer-park-trash crunts. I wonder if Al Capone's and Frank Niti's wives felt that privileged. Seein' as how they're all mobsters 'n' all.

That unfortunately, is the problem with the nouveau riche.
Little doubt who they learnt their behaviour from.

This story is from last year? Otherwise, I find it hard to believe that the same incident would have occurred???
Nov 12, 2010 at 3:25 PM | Unregistered CommenterJack
I was right! I went and clicked the link above and sure enough, it was from August 2009.

Phew, I thought I was caught in a timewarp! LOL!

Wow! Neither one of those women are all the pretty. One would think that for all the money their husbands at Goldman Sachs have ripped the system off for, they could afford better plastic surgeons! Just saying.....

yes jack...the story is from last year...i never published it and it had been in my list of drafts for 12 months...it's really a timeless story of innocence that works no matter the date...;-)

Can't wait to see them go through Air Port Security like everyone else? Guess they'll use their private jets!

they stole billions of dollars and made millions of homeless and jobless, killed countless number of people in endless wars for their beloved jewish state, bankrupted the whole world, and got away with murder of our freedom, BUT BEING A SNOB IS PRICELESS.

I hope their reward is "Ovarian Cancer" ...for ironies sake .

The best that could happen is to put these accomplishes in prison with their thieving husbands. Obviously they do know math but have not figured out the ratio of the thieves vs the ripped off. Look what happened to the "royal couple" when they met angry protesters...time for tar and feather and would she not looking smashing in feathers?

If Mrs. Blankfein is this much of a lowlife, imagine what her husband must be like!

NOTHING NEW. . . .In my job I've seen Laura Blankfein's behavior at almost every income level. It's a natural consequence in a species that has always valued wealth above anything else and renders status and respect accordingly. Even if income has not actually been earned and merely acquired through marriage, inheritance or even outright thievery, proper deference from the poorer is still due. It's an instinctual, unwritten rule that has plagued our planet since the dawn of civilization. THE ancient status quo that American's don't want to admit exists, and the very rich who own the media and political parties have desperately squandered trillions to preserve.

That fact is, every town in America (inlcuding Laura's) has it's local "aristocracy." A pecking order of little merchant kings, queens, dukes and duchesses that put on charity shows. We all know the pecking order at these events and there will be a squabble if someone steps out of line. Until our species outgrows our deep-rooted status-consciousness, we really shouldn't be surprised or shocked by Laura's behavior.

People should run a baton race around her everywhere she goes, and when she is about to get in line, race to the front with stacks of messed up credit cards.

So you see what happens when cousins marry cousins and there aren't enough designer clothes in the world to make it pretty.

Like most readers, I was immediately repulsed reading of these narcissists' classist exhibition; looking down their noses at everyone in society they consider 'lower' than them. Then it dawned on me. People like this are truly and completely unhappy. Nothing will ever be good enough for them. No doubt, I'm sure in their minds they think they are happy. They equate money and status with happiness. Nothing could be further from the truth. True happiness comes from having humility and loving yourself for who you are. Being thankful for what you have. Caring for others. I'm sure they could never, ever understand how it feels to be completely fulfilled and truly happy. It doesn't require wealth, fame, status, or special treatment. In fact, those things usually detract from one's happiness by emboldening the ego and creating false idols. It's almost sad that they have so much yet are so spiritually void. One of God's little ironies. They will probably die having never known the unconditional love and universal interconnectedness we all share as sentient beings.

Phil Falcone's Wife Arrested After Car Crash

http://news.hedgefund.net/default.aspx?story=14079

[snip]

The New York Post reported that Falcone’s wife, Lisa Marie Falcone, was charged with "driving while ability impaired and without a license" after leaving an event in the Hamptons on Saturday.

The article also said Lisa Falcone's car hit the back of a Mercedes before smashing into a parked Verizon van, and that she told police she was “speeding to escape someone who was chasing her.” She has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Her arrest is just the latest in a series of misfortunes for the Falcones in the past year.

eVestment|HFN reported in June that the Securities and Exchange Commission filed various charges against Phil Falcone and his hedge fund Harbinger Capital Partners. Also, his wireless venture LightSquared filed for bankruptcy earlier this year, and Harbinger Capital investors sued his firm to recover their money lost by Falcone in his LightSquared stake.

Caught On Tape: Hillary Puts "Everyday American" In Her Proper Place

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-06-02/caught-tape-hillary-puts-everyday-american-her-proper-place

===========

Longtime Bill Clinton sex-assault accuser says Hillary 'enabled it to happen again and again and again and again'
Kathleen Willey claimed in 1998 that Bill Clinton fondled her and put her hand on his genitals during a 1993 Oval Office meeting
She came forward after the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal broke
Willey, a Clinton organizer in Virginia during the 1992 campaign, now blames Hillary Clinton for covering up Bill's sexual conquests
Hillary, she said Sunday in a radio interview, 'chooses to go after the women that he hooks up with, to ruin them again and again and again'
Willey, now 69, wants to see Republican Carly FIorina elected: 'She's got more cojones than everybody in Washington combined who's running'

=============



What really makes this sick is that Kathleen's husband, Clinton Fundraiser Ed Willey, was killed on the same day Bill assaulted his wife. Found in a Virginia woods, Willey had died from a shotgun blast to the head. Despite no suicide note and the difficulty of using a long gun to shoot oneself in the head, the death was declared a suicide. Willey was one of Bill Clinton's four top fundraisers, all of whom died under suspicious circumstances in the first 6 months of Bill's Presidency, including White House Deputy Council Vincent Foster!
