4 Another Day, Another Ride on the Private Jet
You see the beautiful girl getting on the private jet with no luggage? You know why she has nothing, not even a carry-on? It’s because she was only going 12 miles. That’s right. She needed to go get an iPhone case and decided to take her family’s private jet. Truthfully we don’t know that, but we wouldn’t be surprised. Traveling by private jet is as common as traveling by Ferrari or dune buggy or yacht to The Rich Kids of Dubai. It raises an interesting question: what does impress these people? They spend a lot of their time trying to impress the normal people, but what impresses them? Space travel? Time travel? What does it take to get someone who has everything or can snap their fingers and get everything to really be impressed? Ironically, it’s probably the fact that people can survive in the harsh poverty that most of the world actually lives in.
3 Just Pull In Next to the Watercooler
This dude looks a little older than a kid, but with the way everybody acts these days, it seems like being a kid includes anybody under 40 years old. And maybe he’s bald by choice. Whatever. If he pays us enough money, we’ll call him a kid until he’s 98 years old. He’ll probably be back in diapers by then anyway. So this guy owns a Ferrari, but he apparently doesn’t feel the need to drive it. We understand the hesitation. We freak out when we get a tiny scratch on our 2004 Toyota Camry and we wouldn’t get $2,000 on a trade-in for that, so keeping your sweet car in your office is understandable. It’s also a little weird. It’s kind of intimidating to people you have meetings with. “Let’s meet in my office… next to my $75,000 car.” The one thing you can say about The Rich Kids of Dubai: the richer they get, the weirder they get.
