Billionaire Purchases Boyfriend for $1.3 Billion
 
Lillane Bettencourt 86, Heiress to L'Oreal cosemetics, took 1.3 Billion of her 22.9 Billion and purchased herself a 61 year old boyfriend named Francois-Marie Banier.

Her 55 year old daughter, Francoise Bettencourt-Meyers tried to sue Francois-Marie, basically for taking advantage of an old woman, but Lilian—who has been known for not speaking out publicly, broke her silence and said that her daughter is “idiotic”.

She claimed her mother had given Banier $1.3 billion worth of gifts - including Picassos, Matisses and Mondrians, plus cash, property and life insurance. The daughter also claimed Bettencourt’s facilities were impaired and that she’d been exploited by an unscrupulous poseur.

Bettencourt struck back, saying she never wanted to see her daughter again and denying she was frittering away the family fortune, which her father, Eugene Schueller, built with the creation of L’Oréal in 1909.

Banier is no Svengali or fortune hunter, she said. He is a close family friend who helped her when her 88-year-old husband, André, died last year

Seems like the adage "more money than sense" applies here.

One million out of 22 billion is not very much comparatively. It would be like my purchasing a boyfriend for $5.00.. ;)
