Reality TV star and entrepreneur Bethenny Frankel is a hustler in the best way.
The star pivoted her success on Bravo's "Real Housewives of New York City" into an empire: In 2011 she sold the brand she founded, Skinnygirl Cocktails, for a reported $100 million; she was a guest investor on season 9 of ABC'S "Shark Tank;" and now she's flipping multimillion-dollar homes on her new Bravo show, "Bethenny & Fredrick," with "Million Dollar Listing New York's" Fredrik Eklund.
When it comes to getting business done, Frankel does not fool around.
So where did fast-talking Frankel get her determined spirit? It's the way she grew up, she says.
"I mean, I grew up at the racetrack, which is hustlers and gamblers and the betting windows and odds,".
