According to the Sunday Times Rich List published in April, Oprah Winfrey, is the highest paid personality on television, earning four times that of her nearest rival. She brought in $260m between June 2006 and June 2007, which guarantees her spot as my new adoptive mother…not just because she’s loaded, but because she does wonderful things with her money.

I need a place to stay. I have to work 2 jobs just to keep a roof over my head and I’m looking for a third job as well. All I want is to be able to go to school so I can get a degree but I’m unable to because I have to work 2-3 jobs just to survive and even if I had the money I’d have no time working all those hours. Hopefully I will find a generous person to take me in. I can contribute a little bit moneywise, but not a whole lot. I’m also willing to work for my room and board if there’s anything around the house you might need help with or maybe you have your own business and I can work for you. I have no friends or family I can stay with and I just want to earn some kind of education so one day I’ll be able to survive on my own without working 100 hours a week. My lease is ending near the end of the year so that’s when I’ll be available to move. Please let me know if you could help me out.
