Dara said in a Philippine airline magazine interview that she does not have make any investment other than herself. At 32 years of age, it makes you wonder if a healthy lifestyle is an important part of that investment because nothing ages or compromises your health faster than alcohol and preservatives. Reading about how her mom admonishes her for buying expensive gifts or another pair of sneakers reminds me of her story in the Philippines on how her mom confiscated her ATM because they were on dire financial straits and she still did not have control over her spending. I hope she does have enough saved because this career has a very short lifespan.
