You are correct!  LOL!

In her own way she certainly is entertaining, that's for sure!

Lots of "rich people" are up to their eyebrows in debt...   (I used to work in AR/Credit)

Remember everyone it’s been said that marrying a rich man is the hardest job you’ll ever have.

Is he as rich as everyone seems to think? I’m not so sure.

What's so strange about that post is that Jennfer said when she lived in an apartment. Was that the entire conversation? It seems as if Jennifer never mention the word house so maybe she lives at Madison Quare Garden.

Anyone who can afford to buy a house or an apartment can do so. Big deal.

This is another day and I still don't get it.

Weird post.  Perhaps the OP can elaborate on their point.  

Yes, Jennifer lived in an apartment.  Then she moved into her then fiancè/now husband's house.  Nothing unique or interesting about that.

She had to make it known

Yes, she is telling us how to "manifest" what we want in life. Her dream was marriage to a rich man who could provide her with a house and many trips. She is now a life coach and something about her asking if people want to join her on a trip to Italy? She claims with her manifesting a husband, she can teach you the same.🤪😆🤪 Can't make this stuff up @Bella2022 .

Manifest? @Trinity11  When she told the story of seeing his picture, and bio. She went after him.  She initiated the date. That same night. He was surprised. 

Let’s see what happens when the initial euphoria stage changes to normal. No, you can't make this stuff up.

David Venable has 540,000+ followers on Facebook. 

That is remarkable. 

He is a huge, valuable talent and television personality for Qurate/QVC.

Yes, a celebrity and personality with an enormous fan base that purchases items during his shows.

Very wise of Qurate to exploit this Fandom as much as possible.

Oh I abs don't doubt this and any company should be totally using this marketing ploy.

I don't doubt that DV has staff that does all that for him.

I wasn't very clear, and for ME......I could care less what any host, blogger, so-called 'Influencer' has to say....what they do, what they believe...what type of living arrangements they have from Bird house, to dog house, to Mansion on the ocean!!

I don't want to follow anyone, listen to their tweetings, x-ings or anything else!   LOL

I don't wanna chat w/ the sidekick during a show either.

I have way too much to do to spend time on my phone reading all their posts!!!

It has never been part of my day and never will be.  Just not interested in them beyond explaining an item in detail to me.

We lived in a Condo which we rented when we were newly weds. We bought a house about two years later & lived in it a long time. When, we were preparing to retire, we decided we didn’t want the excess burden that home owners face as they age. We had no mortgage & sold our home & purchased a unit in a very nice condo community with elevators, great amenities, pet friendly & lovely neighbors. We never regretted it & it’s been a positive experience for this time in our lives. Yes, I loved many things about owning our own home but at our age, we love living in a condominium community.

Btw, a one bedroom condominium, today, in our area sells for $350,000 to $400,000. We purchased at $138,000 back in 2000. So it’s not an indicator of wealth if you live in a home. I’m sure Jen was speaking of decorating & having more space to do so not bragging about having a house. Your needs change. When it was just her, an apartment suited her needs & she saved money. When she married, she probably wanted room for visiting family or maybe a business space?

I agree with you about the condominium experience.  I have a two bedroom condominium and I purchased it in 2001 for around the same price you bought yours.  My condominium has also gone up in value over the years.  If I wanted to buy it today I would not be able to afford it.  I didn't see it as bragging when Jen said that she has a house now instead of an apartment.  She was just stating a fact.

In reply to the many who don't see the difference between a house and apartment.  I suppose it depends on what is important to each one of us.

Yes, for me, there is a huge difference between an apartment and a house.

You eventually own or do own the house and land.  It's a savings account since they usually increase in value.  

I know someone who purchased a house in 1994 for $54,000 in Texas.  That house just sold for $275,000.  All they did was paint, replace the floors and roof when they moved out.  New kitchen appliances.  

Also, apartment renters must put up with neighbors who can be very troublesome.  

Often there are strict rules for pet ownership.  

Renters must live with landlords' rules and rent increases.  Paying rent feels like you are losing money and you are.

Many people live in apartments that they own and many people live in houses that they rent.

It really doesn't make a difference which type of housing someone prefers.  One type is not any better than another.
