TASTE OF FORTUNE

My Robin Leach moment in my 20’s
Through the trail of wealth
Being like nobody else
Beyond the dream of thinking rich
Got a taste of what it feels like to be just that
Planned a vacation to Los Angeles, California
Stayed at a major Downtown Hotel in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles
Living the life of Reilly
I was put on a special Suite Floor style having a Butler, Key to my personal elevator to my floor, and Guest had to be announced before coming to my floor
I would go Nonstop from the Hotel Lobby straight to my floor and Hotel room
My Butler lavished me with Wine, Chocolates and Cookies
Had the opportunity to travel on a Gothic Luxurious HYFOIL Yacht with plenty of amenities beyond the norm to Catalina Island
Rode a lavished yacht around Miami Beach, Florida
When to an exclusive Beach on Coronado Beach, California
Having choices of Pacific Ocean Beach or swimming pool at the Hotel Coronado provided on the Beach
Robin Leach would narrate, “The smooth and elegance of living in sheer luxury
My words in responding to Robin Leach, “Eat your heart out”
Thrill of a lifetime became my reality
Exploring the Robin Leach atmosphere
I was Rich and Famous for a day
Why can’t it continue coming my way?
