Aristotle Onassis The Golden GreekUploaded by: EllinikiKardia Video Description: Aristotle Onassis 1906-1975 was the smartest businessman of Asia Minor and Greece. The immigrant from Smyrni, made his first million by his wits alone. Nobody helped him. He was 23. Flamboyant, tempestuous, raucous, truculent, and belligerent, lavish and generous, loving and cruel, loved wine, women and song, in that order. Onassis was a big spender. He worked hard and played hard. He "sailed in high winds" and made it. Aristo was a winner. He had big dreams. Big ideas. His projects were big, bigger than anyone else's, and he executed the plans perfectly. Relentless in the single minded pursuit of his objectives. Never afraid to speak his mind. His enemies, and he had many, called him "the old Turk", but never to his face. Self educated, by the shores of Smyrni, no Continental Engineering and London School of Economics degrees, like the current crop of shipowners. Maria Callas was the only true love of his life. Maria, always adored him and her last pilgrimage was to Skorpios and his grave. Maria stated once: "I would like to be Maria, but there is La Callas who demands that I carry myself with her dignity." Aristo freed the Maria in herself. He met Kings, Presidents, Sheiks and dictators. Dated Princesses, stars, starlets and divas. He had seen it all, and done it all. Onassis advice on being successful: "To be successful, keep looking tanned, live in an elegant building (even if you're in the cellar), be seen in smart restaurants (even if you only nurse one drink) and if you borrow, borrow big." He said once: "After a certain point, money is meaningless. It ceases to be the goal. The game is what counts." Aristo, was true to his name, the very best player in the game.

But not Onassis. He was awful to his wife Tina, he was awful to Maria, and he was awful to Jackie too. I don't think he treated any of the women in his life very well.
He was just about money. Not that there's anything wrong with being rich. But he was just a jerk!
If you get a chance to see Masterclass, you'll love it!
I mean ive never really looked into her life or anything. but how she is portrayed here.
marries a rich guy she probaably didnt care for, cheats, excessive spending, doesnt care if her husband is with another woman (maria callas RIP <33 amazing woman btw)..
Fantastic history and a very argentine looking Onasis!
