No, I’ll let you have it-- I just didn’t want round 4.
Xena, Xena, Warrior Princess
She always had money, even if it wasn’t a lot, but the very few times she’s shown picking up some kind of reward for her heroics, she always gives it to charity.
Penny? she had a high school diploma, and had been accepted to Pasadena Community College, but never went far. She was employed as a waitress at the Cheesecake Factory, while going on auditions to be an actress. She was in a productions of The Diary of Anne Frank, a hemorrhoids cream commercial, and an episode of some cop show with Mark Harmon where her part was cut.
After that, she quit acting and the Cheesecake Factory, and found work as a pharmaceuticals representative, where she was very successful, and made a lot of money.
Cripes, I know her resume better than I know my brother’s.
In her early days, I thought she was out of work as an actress more than she was employed. I thought she got the gig at Cheesecake Factory much later, and then did all the other stuff. So yeah, I guess she doesn’t qualify.
Weird little aside-- for quite a while, I thought Penny had been in some experimental play called Anne Frank above a Bowling Alley, because the play was ALWAYS referred to that way, never just “Anne Frank,” or “The Diary of Anne Frank.”

He was married to Gloria while still a student and was living with her in the Bunker home; then after Joey came they moved next door (?) but it was still never clear where he was getting his money.
By this time, Michael has completed his college studies, has taken a teaching job, and he and Gloria move out of the Bunker house, and into the former house of George and Louise Jefferson, next door.
