The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie Post

The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie Post by Allison Pataki


Marjorie Post was the daughter of C.W. Post, the founder of the Post Cereal Company.  The family amassed enormous wealth and the company eventually became General Foods.

Marjorie was a very smart businesswoman.  Unfortunately, her smartness did not crossover into her love life.  Forever the optimist about love, she was married and divorced four times.

At times I found it difficult to wrap my brain around her wealth.  Marjorie did a great job of spending it.  One of her redeeming qualities was her philanthropy.  

This was an interesting insight into the life of an ultra wealthy woman who worked hard at both business and enjoying life.
