I was new to the US and have never heard before about Mr. Donald Trump. I had a natural interest in the development sector and his name, fame, style and fortune started intriguing me. I while as a student, purchased his book, “Trump, The Art of the Deal”. After graduation, I was working with one of the biggest engineering consultancies in Florida. I used to idolize my self also in his foot steps as an aspiring developer. I occasionally used to enjoy the historic architecture of the Palm Beach on my drive on the long-weak ends from Tallahassee. I made in the Jan. 1992, a home video of the exterior of the classic houses of the Palm Beach from the road side; including of the Mar-a-Lago. I visited in Jan. 1992 Manhattan and specially saw the newly built at that time, the majestic, “Trump Tower”. I came back to Lahore, Pakistan in 1992 due to the family commitments and running my own planning / infrastructure consulting firm and also developing on a small scale an up-coming real estate project. I shall like to mention here that my grand-father was one of the master developers / land-lords in the Lahore Cantonment by the turn of the twentieth century.

I am an old friend of Liz Belkin's and know how hard she worked on this charity and the event. The event was a huge success and she happened to be the most stunning woman there. Anyone that would say nasty things are only jealous and really should feel sorry for themselves! In light of the world situation, I think everyone should be a little kinder....... wow people are cruel. I am an old friend of Liz Belkin’s and know how hard she worked on this charity and the event.

I have to admit I’m a bit of a greenhorn when it comes to this as I don’t think I have ever posted anything anywhere online. Maybe I’m more of the real world person where hiding behind a fake avatar name to insult someone seems a bit childish. What is lost here is the fact this night was not about Liz or the Gov but the March of Dimes and raising money for the most innocent beings on the planet… The night was a HUGE success and Liz and the other 2 chairs did an exceptional job. The space never looked better, the band from the Motor City was great and everyone who I spoke with had fun. Now, I am neither malicious nor do you care enough to me to make me crawl down into the gutter with you but to insult my good friend Liz simply makes you look petty. Most of all it is mean and you are probably better than this or I like to believe we all are… I personal think she looked fantastic that night… Happy Holidays!

What matters is what he does as Governor of our state. As for the Belkin woman, she is not important enough to have an opinion on. Who cares if Charlie Crist is gay or not.

As for the Belkin woman, she is not important enough to have an opinion on.

When people can only make negative comments about Liz instead of acknowledging the tremendous effort she and Maris put forth to make the evening an enjoyable and financiaaly success tells those that read these comments that there are people that are immature and ungrateful. Thank you Liz , oh and by the way you LOOK HOT ! The event was a BIG success and raised a good amount of money for a great cause.

Elizabeth Belkin didn't look that good and she has aged a lot. BUT she did a great job on the event, it was so much fun, and that's what matters. I agree with Comment #1.
