Opportunities sometimes comes to you when you least expect them. If someone were to ask just how did you end up working for such a magnificent person in the future, she had no idea how she was going to answer that.
Would it even make sense if she told them that she was just the fan's manager and one of the oldest ones who stood by Arianna during her darkest times? Would they believe her if she told them that she was recognized when she attended that fan meeting where they left with good worth ten thousand dollars each person.
For them Arianna had spent over a million dollars, how can they not appreciate her and feel loved? Of course, for some it would have be better if they were given money in their hands as they can do a lot of things with it.
However, receiving gifts that one can see all the time sometimes was better than receiving money that one can use within days and soon it will be gone without a trace.
