      So what is her history aside from being Swedish and making mistakes on how to upgrade herself based on the videos I have seen? I wonder what her main job was in Italy and other parts of mainland Europe and London since she said blogging was just a side hustle. And she also said in another video that she could easily move to Geneva because of the nature of her job. I thought that blogging was her main source of income and she did some other side hustle to pay her bills.

Which I think is a very honest admission.

I also had people tell me there is no money to be made in my chosen profession or that I'm wasting my time going back to school only to learn that there is a huge growing demand for it my school is well known and thought of and to be missing out on the potential of making $20,000 -30,000 more a year ! 🤯 find your passion see if it fits a demand and go for it.

      Tip: People who live in mansions never call their home a mansion.
      It's considered in poor taste to do so.
      So never say "mansion."
      Instead, say you hope to one day have a big beautiful home or you hope to live in a lovely spacious house one day.
      (And don't say this to or around your parents. It may hurt their feelings. It might make them feel as if they are not providing well enough for you.)

      @@havanax8096 You expressed yourself perfectly.
      Many for whom English IS their primary language do not understand the subtle distinctions regarding why we should be careful how we use the word.
      If a person says he lives in a mansion, it is in poor taste. It sounds as if he is bragging. It is not modest.
      If you say you want to live in a mansion, it sounds as if you are overly impressed by wealth and status.
      It seems strange, I know!
      It's like a man who is rich would never say, "I'm rich." It would sound as if he's bragging. It is not modest.
      He might instead say, "Oh, I'm doing all right," or "I manage to make a living." Or "I've been fortunate." He would downplay his success or good fortune in this way.
      So we would also never describe someone as rich. We would say, "He's done very well for himself." Or "He's well off" Or "He is successful." Or "He has a comfortable lifestyle."
      Those of us who are not wealthy should try to not appear overly impressed by someone else's wealth.
      And wealthy people should try to appear modest about their wealth.
      I hope this makes sense. 🤗

    Where to begin…the Hermès bag and boots…the whole look is fabulous! I think I have watched all of your videos (even the ones that are no longer posted), so I am pretty familiar with your life story. This was a really nice treat to see the places you have talked about in past videos and your podcasts. The timing of this video is coincidental since I just had dinner with a very good friend who told me that’s time to put myself out there and start dating again. I am quite hesitant since I am only about half way to my physical goals (I found a boot camp program in February that I absolutely love…not posh like yours was, but love it all the same). My living conditions are similar to your first place in London, so I do not think I would attract the sort of man I want, as my current situation stands. I know my physical or economic status should not matter to a worthy man, but I want to feel my best and do not want to go into a relationship with any insecurities or low self confidence. This was an inspiration for me to continue on my personal journey of leveling up and to not say “no” to social occasions/invites because, as you said, I could miss out on something or someone special.

      Don’t exclusively look for rich guys thats probably hindering your search for love. Find someone who cares deeply about you and who you think is hot and go from there. Money can be made especially if y’all work together (and you said you have some experience building a business). But it’s probably harder to find love than it is to make $$$. Good luck out there and god bless

    Dear Anna, I have only watched a few of your videos, but this is what young women (and young men also) need and that is first and foremost good manners. I am 74 years old and come from a country that seems to pride itself on BAD MANNERS & FOUL LANGUAGE, TACKY BEHAVIOUR especially with alcohol! Unfortunately, most people believe that good manners are a form of snobbery and it is hard to get them out of this belief, so I don't try anymore, I just dismiss them instantly and walk away at any sign of disrespect and leave them wondering. It has taken me a long time to get to this stage. I like what you are doing because you are helping people to raise their standards, it is long overdue and I am glad to see the increasing number of young women who comment on your videos are taking your advice. Most of them may never break into high society, but they will become better human beings and attract other quality people. Good on you!

So I met my now husband that night, 3 days after moving to this city. But here is the crazy part. I was actually scheduled to move to the city 2 weeks later, but my bosses needed me sooner an asked if I would come 2 weeks earlier…I said Yes‼️So I met this wonderful man. ❤ BUT, the woman who introduced us was let go by our employer a few days after I met this man …..and if I had not said yes to coming 2 weeks earlier, I wouldn’t have met her…or him.

      It's quite an affluent part of London and those flats are now desirable as they tend to much larger than new builds. My guess is that as she was new to London at the time, she may have thought those kind of buildings were associated with being poorer.

      Agreed - it's in London, one of the global capital cities, she shouldn't have felt "mortified" by a boyfriend rather liked her for her x

      It might have been different 10/15 years ago. I know some places are having up grades but weren't desirable back then its called gentrification. From the outside to me they looked like they would be okay but not glamorous so if you are trying to attract a certain type of person it might not be something that you would want to show
