Did Ghislaine Maxwell sacrifice her power for comfort?

Having come from extreme wealth, an elite upbringing and of course having grown accustomed to that lifestyle, it seems Ms. Maxwell was keen on maintaining it after the untimely death of her father. It’s alleged her relationship with Epstein was one of convenience, in which she exchanged her proverbial rolodex that consisted of powerful, privileged personnel for access to a life of comfort. Ghislaine was reportedly a brilliant woman. If this is so, is it possible she sacrificed this personal power in pursuit of the prestige associated with being romantically attached to a wealthy man?

Maxwell became involved in a romantic relationship with a man who was an ephebophile. This meant that as a young adult she was already too old for his interests and as time went on, he lost any physical desire for her.

She pimped girls for him in order to remain in his life. The fact that she was willing to do this at all indicates something severely lacking in her makeup (we already know Epstein was a very sick man).

@bijouxbroussard my thoughts exactly.
She is indeed a master manipulator. And she was obsessed with, and manipulated by, a masters master.
I would like for her to rot.
I would also like for her to spill it.
I'm not certain which i would like more.

@Carla The fact that she came from wealth emphasizes the sickness of it. Had Epstein "rescued" her from impoverished circumstances and somehow she’d felt obligated it would’ve been a somewhat different situation, though no less vile.
