My cousins wife, a Sicilian, started selling Insurance after they got married went Gault early, Diamods and Gold. She was on the million dollar round table member for 20 years.
Her father was a School Janitor, used to refer to me as Irish, Swamp Yankee would have been more correct.
the idea of a perfect gift (for me) is a champagne glass full of cut but unset diamonds....I asked Santa one year for that and he laughed so hard I fell off his lap....oh wait, that was my husband.
