THE SCORE
THE GOOD LIFE
Palm tree-lined streets. Glittering beaches, movie star neighbors
Beverly Hills, California.
You all lead lives of fabulous luxury and wealth. Armani handbags,
Louboutin shoes, jewelry by Neil Lane, personal chefs, the best
bodies money can buyyou have it all. Youre living the southern
Califonia dream. Your days are spent shopping on Rodeo Drive and
your nights revolve around dining with your girlfriends at the trendy
hot spot du jour.
Either that, or you clean up the mess those people leave behind.
Regardless, the glamorous life isnt all its cracked up to be. The
mansions almost in foreclosure, your financial advisors are running
a Ponzi scheme, and the your philandering husband is banging the
nanny. You cant lose it all now. If only there was some way to make
all your problems disappear forever.
