A Very Martha Christmas
Martha Stewart is on Larry King tonight and clearly is trying to pull on holiday heartstrings so people will characterize her as a normal person. But she goes a step too far in my opinion. This from
CNN:Though she grew up in a modest household in New Jersey, the daughter of a schoolteacher and a pharmaceutical salesman, Stewart said her subsequent wealth has not changed her much."My priorities have kind of remained the same. And other than having a few more luxuries than I might have had, my life is the same.
You rang the bell on the NYSE when you took your company public. If anything, you are doing yourself a disservice by saying nothing has changed since you grew up in the middle class, hard working world. Fine, your hard work ethic has not changed, but your life? One look at your sprawling country estate says different.
