Don't get me wrong, people, I don't "hate", as some have commented, nor do I think she cheated in any way. The truth is that she used the system to the best of her advantage and it paid off for her.
But "greatness", as so many have proclaimed, isn't about finding the loopholes and exploiting them...
As for spending, I'm not one to judge on that issue either... I've spent a fair amount here and there... and I've always put it to good use too, but it is far easier to buy your prizes and icons in this game than it is to earn them without the spending. Anyone who has ever spent and then gone "spending free" can vouch for that one.
Anyway, I'm not disrespecting and if anyone thinks I am, then pull your head out, I'm just saying that she wouldn't have the same numbers and the same success without spending more than anyone else did in the game. I'm sure that just as easily, someone else with deeper pockets could have finished just as well.
