Cheryl Allen

Fighting for my rights I became homeless. People ask me what do you want, You can have anything but money. They didn't really want to hear.

What do you love about being over 40?

That I have more confidence and self-esteem than I did when I was younger. I have no idea why I had some really good friends and ran in a popular group. But for some reason even when we were out and about because of what those girls would say about me I never got dates. I was probably even the prettiest among them. And I didn't have that attitude at that time. I thought I was just nothing special.

How do you stay fabulous?

I try to eat healthy, well balancing it with having my favorite foods but I want them. I think sometimes it's important to have pizza, and ravioli and remember what it's like to be a child because it keeps you young. I think attending concerts and going to drive in movies even though I do it by myself because I'm single, isn't important thing for me to maintain a youthful appearance. You have no idea how much I exercise you think I'd be thin by now.

What would you do with the $40,000?

Use it towards my home and buying a home, hopefully starting up the business.
