“You are being part of the problem, and above all with the responsibility you have as a communicator,” was part of the message that Paula Pavic, the ex-wife of “Chino” Ríos, public relations officer and networker, sent more than a week ago to the journalist. Sergio Rojas, who hosts the entertainment show Que Te Lo Digo, on the Zona Latina cable channel. There, the reporter made a brief comment about Pavic in the middle of a topic of conversation that had nothing to do with her.
“Like Paula Pavic, who says ‘I’m poor’ and drives around in an 80 million Porsche,” was the communicator’s phrase. And in a later chapter, he made public that Paula wrote to him to respond:
Sergio Rojas: “Paula Pavic, very dazed, in her billion-dollar house, takes her four-million-peso mobile device and types the following:
‘I clarify that I am not walking in a Porch and I am not saying that I am poor, because poor people are poor in mind, and I have never been poor in mind. I have only said that before I lived with an amount and now I have had to adapt to living with 10% of that amount.
‘Which I’m not going to specify, because apparently your resentment with money is so great, that I don’t want to generate any more bad vibes from you towards me. But I’ll put it in perspective: consider that before I lived with a thousand dollars, now I live with a hundred, but happier than ever.’
Rojas responded, also by message: ‘Of course, I understand. The thing is that it is strange to imply that you are in a precarious situation, when deep down the place where you live and the way you live are far from being economically bad.
‘I understand that your way of life changed, but you must understand that with the way you live, a hundred families must live in Chile. It is a saying, it is not literal.’
Pavic replied to that: ‘And I understand it perfectly, but that’s not why I’m going to leave the life I live so as not to make others feel bad. That is precisely the reason why my focus is teaching people to eliminate those limiting beliefs that keep them in that precarious situation.
‘But with your comments you don’t help much to change that. On the contrary, you feed it, since you help establish that what is normal is poverty and that people who are going through a complicated economic situation should go through life complaining, lamenting and showing everyone how bad it is.
‘You are being part of the problem, and above all with the responsibility you have as a communicator.’”
