The seventh richest man on the planet is opening his new store at Destin Commons this March. The store, Sephora, is just one of Bernards many high end luxury stores around the globe. Please give Monsieur Arnault a warm Emerald Coast welcome as he opens in our beautiful area. With your support we can get Monsieur Arnault up to sixth place by passing up Larry Ellison of Oracle(28 Billion). The World's Billionaires - Forbes.com


From:Bernard Arnault - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bernard Arnault (born 5 March 1949) is a French businessman. He is the founder, chairman, and CEO of LVMH, a large luxury goods conglomerate consisting of over fifty luxury brands, including Louis Vuitton, Dior, and Fendi. According to Forbes Magazine, Arnault is the world's 7th richest person, with a 2010 net worth of $US27.5 billion.
 
He'd better get some lessons from the mistakes at the ATL Lenox Square store. Such as (a) at minimum have employees who try to help instead of standing around, ignoring customers, just to collect a paycheck, and (b) even better, have knowledgeable employees who know more about makeup and the products that are sold there than the customers do. Usually our daughter ends up giving product lessons to the employees -- she's an artist, and makeup is just a media that she does for fun, not pay. Oh, and (c) please don't spray so much fragrance that it gives many people either nausea or a headache upon entering the store.

That being said, our favorite makeup products are bought at Sephora.

I am not the target demographic, but I must say I do like it when people get rich for doing something or having a great idea.

Scootie that sounds quite Warren Buffet-ish... who believes "investors should be buying A BUSINESS, not just a stock".

From Joe Nocera's article 'Saint Warren of Omaha' published in Money, July 1998 and reprised as a chapter in his book Good Guys and Bad Guys, Saints and Scoundrels of American Business, one of my favorite Buffet quotes:

"If I taught a class in valuation, I would ask the students, for the final exam, to pick an Internet company and tell me how much it's worth. Anyone who gave me an answer would flunk."
