Balance sheets bore me. I suspect if figures had excited me I would have gone into the city and now be a lot wealthier.

More quotes by Anne Robinson
My best business decision is always to have been unembarrassed about negotiating a decent deal. Not being coy or shy about money is second nature to me.
Anne Robinson
I eventually got a job with a television company, started to see how exciting journalism could be as a career, and decided that was what I wanted to do.
Anne Robinson
I come from a family of traders my grandmother and my mother were very good at making money.
Anne Robinson
I was thrilled when a designer shop assistant said I was a size smaller than Madonna!
Anne Robinson
I like one nice man because he gets three tickets for the cinema so we've got somewhere to put our coats. He passes the test. I've been quite surprised because I really didn't expect to be wined and dined, and it's quite nice.
Anne Robinson
I saw George Bush at a benefit concert actually waving at Stevie Wonder. Someone had to tell him, 'He can't see you.'
Anne Robinson
I have never, for a single moment, been aware of pressure from anyone in television about how I dress, what my shape is or how I speak. I've always written my own scripts. I've always been the first to point out that I need to be fit. I need to look good.
Anne Robinson
Sad old blokes, I'm told, now dream of me with a whip in hand.
Anne Robinson
I adore clothes - they're my weakest link! My mother was the same, and she taught me always to look polished.
Anne Robinson
Every couple needs glue to stay together. Like all marriages, I suspect, if you're busy you don't see it coming until you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. It's a bit like going broke. It happens slowly and then very quickly.
Anne Robinson
I don't despise, because no-one should live rent-free inside your head.
Anne Robinson
I think that in a family some are workers some are not. I certainly saw my mother work very hard and be in charge and never show any kind of fear about business deals. Her golden rule was you should never be embarrassed talking about money and asking for what you deserved. I take the same view.
Anne Robinson
Mirror, mirror on the wall, whos the dumbest of you all?
Anne Robinson
The Welsh... I mean, what are they for?
Anne Robinson
My favourite designers are Alexander McQueen, YSL, Eskandar, Donna Karan and Lanvin.
Anne Robinson
I don't like the anonymity of the banking process - people now don't have a bank manager they ever meet.
Anne Robinson
I do have a rule that very few meetings are worth more than ten minutes.
Anne Robinson
I'm not going to marry a third time. It is just not necessary.
Anne Robinson
I like to look put together without trying too hard. I don't want to look as if God's made another rainbow - I prefer muted, autumnal colours, like most fading redheads.
Anne Robinson
I've had a lot of dates, but I don't think there's been anyone that special or important.
