Not an ounce out of control
Article Abstract:
Slimming expert Rosemary Conley believes that money is not at all important in her life. She has become extremely wealthy through releasing many books and videos giving advice on diet and exercise, as well as through setting up the Rosemary Conley Diet and Fitness Clubs franchise. However, she does not really think very much about how much money she is making. She began slimming seriously after having an operation for gallstones, at a time when she also became a committed Christian. She believes that God looks favourably on her determination to help other women lose weight.

Look who's in my box
Article Abstract:
Millionaire racehorse owner and breeder Robert Sangster entertains many well-known people in his private box at the racecourse at Ascot, England. The best-dressed ladies attending Ascot wear designer label clothes and very large hats, making others feel very under-dressed. Much of the time is spent drinking champagne and greeting acquaintances. Sangster's box does not actually overlook the course, so those who wish to view the races must do so on a television screen.
