ROS:

I grew up in a castle, for Christ’s sake.

I am Mrs. Secretary of the U.S. Treasury!

Stevie tells me that any one of my Instagram outfits "rivals the GDP of a small nation." Isn't he darling?

Town and Country devoted an entire article just to my wedding jewels. The last time I looked, we buy jewels with money.

There were so many jewels they simply didn’t have ROOM to get to my Ines di Santo wedding gown. What’s that you say? Who is Ines di Santo?? Lots and lots of money.

Guess who flew with her hubby on a private government jet just to go shopping because hubby happens to be the goddamn Secretary of the goddamn Treasury? Hint: It's not Harriet Tubman ;-)

My family’s castle is called "Melville." Remember that name, for you will see it etched on the back of my twenty-dollar bill. It will also be the closest to Melville you'll ever get.


Cons:

Harriet Tubman owned a railroad, I think. I do not own a railroad. Well played, Harriet.
