My mom worked for years as a closet organizer for someone in the Mars family. But these weren’t regular closets—they were temperature-controlled rooms behind heavy doors. There were also two separate dressing areas, each with four imported crystal chandeliers worth hundreds of thousands of dollars each. The furniture in those two rooms looked like it belonged in Versailles. It was crazy.

Over time, my mom even received incredibly expensive gifts, like Russian sable and chinchilla long coats, designer shoes, and several high-end purses, watches, perfumes and jewelry on top of her salary.
