Kandi Burruss Talks About the Housewives and Real Success

February 18, 2012 by tamaratattles 17 Comments

Kandi gets real about the housewives in this interview with Ebony Magazine.
She talks about tension between her and Nene, the pressure to buy designer clothes,the finger pointing about who is renting by people who are renting. She talks about money, saying she makes more than Nene and so does Phaedra, which we knew. She also discusses her many business ventures. The issue is on newstands now.

Kandi makes it clear that she owns multiple houses. Click through the jump to see her latest purchase. It’s stunning!

This is what happens when you don’t waste your money on Birkin bags and Louboutins ladies. I bet there isn’t a single blow up mattress on the floor of this place. My only question is what is she going to do with just her and Riley  with all that space? Compare this with the long story of “Chateau Sheree” found here. Sheree may want to pay attention. In a bottomed out real estate market, you don’t tear things down and build from scratch. You find a jewel and get it for a song!  And in Kandi’s situation, you pay for it with a song.  Congrats on the new home Kandi!

    I saw on FB Kandi just bought a new house ..its HUGE! Also, I saw where some hotel in Chicago has a suite featuring her Kandi Bedroom products. This girl has so many irons in the fire .. my hats off to her. Many groups from her era – the people are flat broke – so good to see she has done well for herself.

    Yes Kandi is definitely doing great and I just love her and think she deserves all of her success. BTW I just lover her relationship with her Mother and daughter, Kandi is a very blessed woman.

    Kandi seems like such a down to earth type of person. I am so glad to see she was smart enough to invest her money wisely. I'm sure in a few years we will see Nene living in The Projects. NJB

    Yes much respect for Kandi she is definitely doing her thing. It's sad that Nene couldn't even take her advice without thinking that she was "hating" on her.

    Once again most of the interview is about Nene. All of these women are grown and will do what they want. The person she needs to talk to is Sheree with the blow up mattresses. She will never say anything about her crew because Kim and Sheree try to flaunt what they have too.

    That was kinda tacky of Kandi to be speaking on NeNe like that. She is getting to be one of the messiest ones.

    There is a lot of NeNe talk, but I figure that's the direction that the interviewer wanted to take.NeNe has spoken badly against nearly all of her cast members so I don't mind Kandi clearing the air and exposing NeNe as the hypocrite that she truly is.

    Can't stand Kandi. Her hair always looks like a disaster and she's so simple/country.

    I dont recall Nene ever saying she had more money than anyone so why is the "who makes more money than Nene" even being discussed? Furthermore the only thing she said about Kandi is that she plays both sides and if you have been watching this season you can clearly see that. Anyway, congrats Kandi on your new endeavours. She is my favoritw Housewife after Nene of course…*ding*

    Beautiful house and the fact that she has been in magazines and has her products in some hotels is a wonderful thing. but what I think most in our community forget is that there is a difference between being rich and being wealthy. now I am not saying that she is not rich because we have all seen how much the housewives of atlanta make but no matter how much they make or what they do will they or she be truly wealthy? what was the point of buying another home in atlanta that you will probably not live in. case in point kim lives in a home of an ex football player in which could not sell the home so they rented out to kim. so if kandi can not or does not want to sell the home that she is currently living in she will be carrying more than one mortgage and I don't care who you are or what you do sometimes when you start making 'new money' and mix it with old money you lose sight of the reality at hand. buying a home at rock bottom prices is great but how many homes can you live in? how many cars can you truly drive? and when that home sits empty because no one is leasing or renting it then you are required to keep up the maintenance and make sure nothing goes wrong with the home. celebrity, a -d list, get in trouble when they get over their. I don't know her finances and truthfully I don't care but all I am saying is sometimes thinking before you leap does not due anyone any harm. Congrads though

    Kandi Burruss has said on many occasions she purchased and paid for her current home at age 19. Kandi is smart with her money. Why not buy a million dollar home for a third of that? I'm sure if many of us had it we would do the same…

    I don't know why y'all hating on Kandi, the girl is down to earth how many of you can put up with Nene? Don't get me wrong Nene is an entertainer my husband actually likes her in the show but she is overdoing the whole thing. We all know if you have never had something you tend to over acquire when you can afford to. Kandi has been there done that she wouldn't think the way the others think right now. I LOVE Phaedra she has a good sense of humour. Cynthia is still stuck in her old glory and struggling to move on, Kim is a lucky ass b#$%h I love her now though. Hmm Nene has something she is fighting within and she covers it up by being too loud and arguing all the time. Buying a new house doesn't mean you will live in it, u can always rent it out so what's with the hate?
