She does represent charitable foundations, but POORLY. In last week's episode, it was revealed that she did not have a ticket price to attend her benefit (which you should ALWAYS have, otherwise as Dwight the hairstylist said "They're gonna show up, drink your liquor, eat your food, and leave." which they did.) She spent $30,000 on the fundraiser and only made around $20,000; that is NOT how you fundraise. So technically you're out of $10,000 and now she's embarrased. I heard people STILL talk about that failure of a fundraiser. In my opinion, she doesn't know how to have money. She doesn't know how to manage money, just because your husband is an NBA player doesn't mean he'll always be one. To her credit, she did have a very successful real estate business, a relative of mine in Atlanta used to work for her. She's one of those people who thinks that large amounts of money will be infinite. I'm sorry, but you don't work...sure, you have a charity foundation under your belt, but why would you need to staff 10 people in your oversized house? Do what you signed on to do by getting married and knocked up in the first place: be a fucking mother and raise your own damn kids. And listening to her talk makes me grind my teeth: she talks through her jaw and doesn't pronounce words. As a professional, you do not go to a "jury" store and you don't run a "founation." You go to a JEW-EL-RY store and run a FOUN-DAY-SHUN. GET A WORD COACH!

None of the women from the Real Housewives shows are women I aspire to be (I'm sixteen), but the Atlanta women seem to be the worst to me. With each spin off it's gotten worse. =(

I'm so glad that at your young age, you're able to realize this. I see so many young girls whose main goal is to have a life like these women. To be under some man's thumb and checkbook and spend their days galavanting and doing nothing and having nothing to show for themselves. It makes me proud that you're different, and I don't even know you
. Frankly, I would love to become very successful at something that I'm passionate about and be able to afford the luxuries that these women have, but not act a damn fool about it. Who doesn't want a nice house and nice things? But in my opinion, it's not what you have that's important, but how hard you worked to get it and keep it, and how humble you can remain afterward.

If u notice she never revealed her age, clearly she's not as secure in herself as she would want us all to believe. Ok what was up with Mrs. Snow and the Estate Man. unpacking for her relatives. Thats ur Dad, he was here long before ur husbands piece of change, I seriously doubt that he needs u or some stranger going through his belongings. If u don't work why are u wasting money on random stuff? Her husband was not impressed, "This is not a nightclub, its a house".Why can't she tend to her own house, I don't understand. Its not just regular folks that are losing in the economy, its new money and old money that's going belly up. I think the only one with a little class was the one who owns her own mortgage company. She seems to have a good grip on reality. If you notice she was the only one who didn't feel the need to distract attention from the Birthday girl with her outfit, SHe wore a cute top and jeans. No makeup and hair people came through and she still was fly!
Again, I know they do this because they can, but I truly hope this isn't the image that they really want to portray. I don't knock anyone who has acheived wealth and success but most of these women haven't acheived anything but snagging a baller and sugar daddy, but you know I'll be watching and thanking the LAWD my parents raised me to have class and not be an a%&!

She's revealed her age. "I'm 38, and I am HOT," I believe is what she said (and I laughed outloud...) but I agree about the birthday party. It was ridiculous. And her comments about what she expects to get from her divorce; way to go golddigger.

She knows she left NeNe off the list on purpose. I know NeNe was mad but I would have preferred that she handle it a little better. If she was going to curse someone out it needed to be Shree not the assistant. Oh and please do it in private. Why the hell does she need and assistant any way? Her entourage that heffa is crazy! Oh and Mrs. Snow you should be able to cook your own dinner and take care of your own kids. Don't you know your husbands career could be over at any minute and you continue to spend money like you have no sense. A maid, governess, nanny, chef and an assistant. You don't do anything! Oh and poor Kim. Girl get a job. Big poppa will be gone as soon as he finds some new A_ _.
Despite my feelings on the current cast they are no more superficial then previous cast. They just happen to be black.

I agree, I think Sheree did that shit on purpose. And I thinkk she's canoodling with Kim to rub it in NeNe's face, but Nene's wrong to think that she owns Kim. I really wanna know who Big Papa is, and then I wanna call him and tell him how stupid he is to fund some woman's life but not even wanna be involved. At least marry her and reap the tax benefits.
I have more respect for Lisa than any of them; but her history with high profile men disturbs me. She has 2 children with R&B hasbeen Keith Sweat, and she married Ed Hartwell 2 and a half months after they met. Granted, they seem to have a very happy marriage and a great dynamic as a family, but it's still very shocking to me. I think she's a very very hard working woman and I admire it. There are virtually no scenes with her going out and spending away money or lounging around not doing anything; you almost always see her working except for when you see her at the Birthday Party and at the Fundraiser. I do hate, however, her line in the opening credits: "If it doesn't make me money, I don't do it." She set herself up with that one; at the time she probably didn't mean it the way it came out, but now Bravo viewers can see her and hear that tagline and think "What a stingy bitch." It probably makes her look like a golddigger to everybody, but she's the only one who actually does work.
In general, I think the show is just entertaining. I don't think it's fair to consider this cast of women, or any of the casts from previous shows, a representation of Atlanta or whatever city they live in. You have to understand that less than 40% of reality tv is real; and its ridiculous to make the assumption that all housewives in Atlanta or whatever city behave the way that these women on tv do. They behave this way mostly because they are on TV.
