No Live-In Maid?

You Don't All Have Pools Like This?... You Don't All Have Pools?

"I grew up attending a private school in a developing country so a lot of my classmates were in the 1% of the country."

"Whenever we'd be swimming in the school pool one friend of ours in particular would always remark that swimming is more fun if the pool has a current or waves."

"To which I had no idea what he was talking about and generally thought he was just being imaginative."

"One day he invited me over to his house for swimming and he had a 50 foot indoor pool that generated a current/waves."

"He wasn't lying."

"They are a lot more fun."- huazzy

"My college roommate's mom gave him f*cking $1400 'for the weekend' just randomly."

"This made the news, and all the parents whined that their children were innocent and 'just had a bad tutor'."

"Had a girl I went to school with total four brand new cars."

"Think Range Rover, Escalade, etc."

"I was also in a class with this girl when the teacher handed out papers that needed to be signed by a parent, and she signed it herself and tried to turn it in the same period as it was handed out and freaked out when the teacher wouldn't accept it."

Who Needs Frequent Flier Miles?

"A friend I met at Uni flew from Auckland to London for a week to go shopping."

" Clothes were cheaper in London, so to him it made sense."

"His parents were from Singapore and had no idea just how much cheaper cars were in New Zealand."

"So when he said he needed $70k for a Toyota Corolla they gave him the money and he bought a used BMW M3."

"When he went home for the summer he asked if I could mind the car for him, given his Dad had pretty much cut him off at that point he just said I had to pay for insurance on it and I could treat it like my own."

'But as a 19yo sharing a flat and barely getting by there was no way I could cover the cost of insurance, let alone petrol."- Timinime

We've all dreamed at one point about living like the other half lives.

To never have to worry about money, and have chauffeurs, maids and private jets at our disposal.

But money doesn't always lead to a happy life.

As judging by these encounters, being flown around in a private jet one too many times, might have damaging effects in regards to keeping you grounded.
