Last year's "Celebrity Apprentice" Queen Joan Rivers is living it up in her TV LAND series "How'd You Get So Rich?" as she goes undercover and brazenly asks people how they made their fortunes.

Only Rivers can get away with it, as she point blank asks moguls how they did it, how much do they have, how much did that cost and what are they buying next with their pile of cash.    

Tune in Wednesday, June 2nd at 10PM ET/PT as Joan Rivers heads to the Hamptons to visit the self-proclaimed "#1 King of fun," Stuart Rahr. 

Rahr's story

Stuart dropped out of NYU law school to help save his father's mom and pop pharmacy and turned it into a $5 Billion a year business.  Now he's so rich, he broke a record for the most expensive home ever purchased in the Hamptons...$45 Million which he paid for in cash!  After a deluxe tour of his waterfront estate, Stewie takes Joan for a wild ride through his 600,000 square foot distribution warehouse, complete with its own putting green!

Also included in this week's episode is a former “Ball Girl” for the Oakland A’s named Debbi Fields  -- aka Mrs. Fields --  who fetched foul balls for five bucks an hour in order to buy ingredients for her much loved cookies.  

Debbi opened her first location in Palo Alto, CA and eventually turned her neighborhood cookie store into an international franchise and sold it for $25 Million!  She invites Joan into her Tennessee mansion and the two whip up a "get rich quick" recipe of their own!
