OldButHappy December 20, 2019 Share December 20, 2019 (edited) Yikes! I was just coming to revisit this forum because I've been watching seasons one and two while I work around the house. Brandy wasn't too bad, initially, and the Richards sisters were unrepentantly cruel to her. Kim was high as a kite most of the time and Kyle was SO co-dependent. Lisa and Adrienne brought the "Beverly Hills glamour" -tacky and over the top and so much fun to watch (am currently watching the "Spa Day" at Adriennes; she has $500K worth of built-in professional spa equipment and a staff of ten spa therapists at her house). Ha! Not to mention the memorable $50k birthday party that Taylor held for her 4 year old daughter, Kennedy, during which Russ glared sullenly and Kennedy cried and hid. Good times. The current cast of grifters and hustlers leave me cold. And I lost all interest in Kim and Brandy many dog bites, arrests, and lawsuits ago. I won't be watching. (I will, of course, continue to read the snark from y'all!) Edited to add: OMG- am just watching Kim's creepy cokehead boyfriend, Ken, who sniffs through all his scenes - I had wiped him from my memory! Also, what ever happened to $25K sunglasses Dana?

Working off the books is rampant and there is no such thing as a minimum wage or overtime. You get shift pay which can be as little as$20 a shift. You make up for it in tips.

Most restaurants and bars I know of in NY - pay their front staff - minimum wage. There is a work around - say a Scheana or Katie make 300 in cash tips on one night - on their taxes they only claim to have made 50. They can't do anything about the tips on credit cards because there is a paper trail so they should be claiming 100% of those. HOWEVER, I do question how long it takes the Vanderpumps to pay them and I also wonder if they don't tell them about some. I don't know if each waiter/waitress keeps track of every credit card tip amount they accrue in one night. I have also always been suspect of LVP whenever she has said we've opened over 35 restaurant bars. Why did they close? Why did they leave England? If they were so successful - why not still own a few of them and place a general manager in charge for an additional revenue stream? Why do they rent all of those properties and not own them outright? My biggest question is Villa Vomit. It's been a money pit since before RHOBH filmed.

The Ringo Kidd January 11, 2020 Share January 11, 2020 You can make millions in the bar business by having two sets of books and using the cash you skim to buy real estate. Everyone and I mean everyone in the restaurant business does it and if they say the don’t they are lying. I kinda knew the two knuckleheads that owned Studio 54 back in the day. They both skimmed. Both got caught and went to the pokey. Rubell opened the Palladium and died of Aids. Ian Schrager switched to hotels and made a mint in places like the Royalton on 45th Street. He later bought a pardon from President Obama. So can make millions and if you fly under the radar you can walk away or buy your way out of trouble.

In pictures it looks beautiful and elegant. The prices aren't crazy either. I looked up some of the negative reviews. They critique the service a lot, the food being so-so, and the condition of the bathrooms. I saw some reviews by people who are fans of Lisa's and had positive experiences at her other businesses. Maybe they need to run Villa Blanca a bit more like Sur and Pump? I wonder if they're as careful with the selection and training of the employees and maintenance of VB as they are of the more successful establishments.

Someone might know more than me but my understanding is that Ken made his fortune( around $100 million?) in the textile/fashion industry before he met Lisa in the 70s/80s. I think the restaurant/bar thing came after that so some of that money was probably used to open those I would never assume that they made their wealth by skirting law/regulations and mistreating employees. I think these are probably mostly hobby/investment opportunities for them and they could probably live off on their wealth without lifting a finger. Don't they partner with others to start these businesses? I get the impression they are not 100% owners in any of their restaurants/bars (I remember Camille trying to bait Lisa in Season 3 about not outright owning SUR as if it was a negative thing). They probably engage in less shady business practices than Mauricio.

But he started dabbling in restobars since the early 1980s, so I'm guessing that is a decent part of their net worth. As far shady practices...maybe LVP and Ken thought they could beat the system without anyone finding out. Oh well.

The last few seasons he comes off as a bloated/greasy high-used car salesman who has used every opportunity on the show to promote his business. I don't know. Mauricio's alleged crimes are probably bigger in terms of money but the employees Lisa & Ken are allegedly screwing over probably need the money more. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/59/#findComment-5863690

Everyone and I mean everyone in the restaurant business does it and if they say the don’t they are lying. I kinda knew the two knuckleheads that owned Studio 54 back in the day. They both skimmed. Both got caught and went to the pokey. Rubell opened the Palladium and died of Aids. Ian Schrager switched to hotels and made a mint in places like the Royalton on 45th Street. He later bought a pardon from President Obama. So can make millions and if you fly under the radar you can walk away or buy your way out of trouble. It is determined how tough minded you are and I think Ken is pretty tough. That's a bit extreme. Bob's Chicken Inn in rural America is not doing business that way; they live year to year and hope they make enough to stay open. Why would Pump and the Vanderpumps be sued over the car crash? I didn't see any indication that they'd served the driver. 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/59/#findComment-5863828

Are you talking about the video after the car crash where Ken is heard saying we're going to get as much publicity out of this as we can? The injured party is female - she was in Pump when the car crashed into it. I don't know if she is staff or a patron but she was hospitalized due to cuts from flying debris and glass. LVP and company are trying to out a id on this - will probably settle out of court to hush her up 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/59/#findComment-5867274
