      You right.. deceit is in heart of man...psalm 32
      1Blessed is the one
      whose transgressions are forgiven,
      whose sins are covered.
      2Blessed is the one
      whose sin the Lord does not count against them
      and in whose spirit is no deceit.
      3When I kept silent,
      my bones wasted away
      through my groaning all day long.
      4For day and night
      your hand was heavy on me;
      my strength was sapped
      as in the heat of summer. b
      5Then I acknowledged my sin to you
      and did not cover up my iniquity.
      I said, “I will confess
      my transgressions to the Lord.”
      And you forgave
      the guilt of my sin.
      6Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
      while you may be found;
      surely the rising of the mighty waters
      will not reach them.
      7You are my hiding place;
      you will protect me from trouble
      and surround me with songs of deliverance.
      8I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
      I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.
      9Do not be like the horse or the mule,
      which have no understanding
      but must be controlled by bit and bridle
      or they will not come to you.
      10Many are the woes of the wicked,
      but the Lord’s unfailing love
      surrounds the one who trusts in him.
      11Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous;
      sing, all you who are upright in heart!

    When questioned by someone who wondered how she could have been taken in by the likes of Clark Rockefeller, she explained that (paraphrasing here) one could be brilliant & amazing in one aspect of life while being absolutely dimwitted in another area.

I shared a story to my younger sister about an argument we had just months after starting the relationship. My sister got concerned about her and did a check. Multiple convictions for assault and financial fraud. I ended the relationship. As fast as I could.

I feel so grateful to have managed to get out of that marraige ( and yes, he was very intelligent & VERY charming although he continously believed others envied him and that he was above most other people ) although this kind of experience did not leave anyone in my family unscathed . It gave me PTSD . I have so much smpathy for anyone who has lived with a master manipulative yet hugely charming man , its so easy to fall into the elephant pit !

      I'm betting he was white trash and you're hyping him up to make yourself feel better about being fooled. Women are easily manipulated because some part of them doesn't care if it's real or not, they just like the way it makes them look. You probably overexaggerate your relationship with him to cope with your divorce. Keep coping, and making the same mistakes like most women.

      No, they couldn’t. I’m rather tired of this “psychopaths are misguided geniuses” nonsense. The mental qualities that actually benefit society more often involve intense detail orientation, solitary study, and a fair amount of risk aversion. This man was just manipulative and very confident with playing the averages to maximize the payout *to himself.*
      He can appear clever only because he notices opportunities no decent person notices. Such people are useful when you’re trying to compete with another tribe (you send your parasitic monsters after their parasitic monsters), but absolutely useless when it comes to generating real value in an absolute (non-relative) sense.

    I read a really interesting book about this guy, Blood Will Out by Walter Kirn. Kirn is an author of novels and screenplays. The book isn't an in depth discussion about Christian, but more a look at Kirn's own motivations for becoming friendly with Christian, and how Kirn ignored red flags and common sense. It's illuminating as we do often take people at face value. Thankfully, most of them aren't psychopathic killers and cons.

The interviews are also very interesting, her husband's behavior is odd, for lack of a better word... i thought you could check it out, even though the case is still on going.

I could not figure out of Karl was impersonating Grande, or perhaps speculating on what would happen if his credudentuals would be dismantled by such a great doc. *Alles gut* (all is good?)... no I’m still speculating if I could possibly be found out.

    This is a fascinating topic to explore. There’s certainly an entitlement that comes with having money/aristocracy. I witnessed this while living in Manhattan where if you aspired to work at specific companies or live in certain buildings, your Sir name gave a quick pass/access.
