I’d had a group of men and several women around me as I carnivaled through fame. At the time I considered it a tribe – an extended family. Everyone around me was paid by me. And as the wizard said, if you want to know if a relationship is based on money, see what happens when you take the money out of it. When I took the money out of it, only a handful of these friendships remained, and many faded into the past.
