Ray William Johnson· Host0:00

So this woman is looking for a rich man to take care of her. You interested? Now, the woman's name is Nanette, and Nanette is 25 when the story starts, and she's living in Newport Beach, California. And here's the thing about Nanette: she really loves money, and, you know, all the stuff she can get with it. You know, the cars, and the jewelry, and the vacations, and all that stuff. But Nanette isn't trying to work for that life. No, no, no. She doesn't even have a job or a career path. Instead, she dates older, wealthy men who will fund her lifestyle. So one day in 1991, she places an ad in a dating magazine because I guess they used to have dating magazines in the '90s. I don't know. Anyway, in the ad, she makes it clear that she's looking for a rich guy who can take care of her needs, and in return, she'll take care of their needs, too. [whistles] Now, one of the people who sees her ad is this guy, Bill. And Bill, he's around 52, and he's a wealthy entrepreneur who made all his money by inventing some blood filtration device or something like that. Now, Bill, he's just coming out of a divorce, so he's kinda lonely, and he's looking for some companionship. So when he sees Nanette's ad, he hits her up, and eventually they meet up, and they start talking, and they hit it off. And once Nanette sees how rich Bill is, they start dating, and things are going well for them. Bill gives her everything she wants. He takes her on nice ski vacations, and expensive cruises, and trips to Europe.
