Ivanka is a special snowflake -survival mode means going without a massage

"During extremely high-capacity times, like during the campaign, I went into survival mode: I worked and I was with my family; I didn't do much else," she writes. "Honestly, I wasn't treating myself to a massage or making much time for self-care. I wish I could have awoken early to meditate for 20 minutes and I would have loved to catch up with the friends I hadn't seen in three months, but there just wasn't enough time in the day."

She is excluding the regular massage she receives from her Dad.

She couldn't even wake up early enough to meditate for 20 minutes? Well, that's typical of the 45 crowd. Every last one of them is more thoughtless than the last. Maybe Daddy Dearest should give her a job as a curator at the Bowling Green Massacre Memorial and let her explain his view of the reason we had the Civil War. Sooo unnecessary.

She sounds like such an everyday gal, just like all those poor middle class folks who can't get massages whenever they want. How relatable!

BUT, with hard work, and perseverance, you too can become assistant to the president, filling a position that your dad created for you.

Maybe she simply needed her Chakra released.

So, she did not see her friends for 3 months, eluded self care, and blah blah blah from the left...

Call it what you will.....when people get used to something, no matter if they are DEAD broke, they are used to it....what they call it, what does it matter?

So now she has a new book to hawk. Net proceeds to charity.

The typical working mother does not have "people", housekeepers, a cook, nannies, assistants, hair, make-up, stylists, Mds with injectibles, caterers, private jet, a driver or Secret Service protection. The typical working mother does not get to sit in on phone calls and meetings with heads of states.

She put her business into a trust. She is the sole beneficiary of the trust.

I do not begrudge her good fortunes. I have no interest in reading how we are all alike.

What they call it is entitlement, and I am informed it's a bad thing - in poor people, at least. Obviously, the aristocracy has their own rules.

In the book, she talks about the disadvantage of not being able to set up a lemonade stand outside Trump Tower. It's not tongue in cheek.

Here's one of the more telling quotes:

"Perception is more important than reality. If someone perceives something to be true, it is more important than if it is in fact true. This doesn’t mean you should be duplicitous or deceitful, but don’t go out of your way to correct a false assumption if it plays to your advantage.”
