Showcasing Opulence: How the Ultra-Rich Display Their Wealth

The ultra-rich often display their opulence in extravagant and conspicuous ways. Here are some common ways in which they do so:

Luxury Real Estate: Ultra-rich individuals may own multiple mansions or luxury penthouses in exclusive locations, often featuring extensive grounds, high-end furnishings, and state-of-the-art amenities.

Supercars and Yachts: Expensive sports cars, rare collectible vehicles, and private yachts are status symbols for the ultra-rich, showcasing their wealth and love for extravagance.

Designer Fashion: High-end fashion brands, custom-tailored suits, and exclusive accessories are wardrobe staples for the ultra-rich, allowing them to flaunt their affluence.

Fine Art and Collectibles: Rare art pieces, antique furniture, and valuable collectibles are investments and symbols of prestige often displayed in their homes.

Private Jets: Owning private jets and helicopters provides convenience and demonstrates their ability to travel luxuriously.

Exclusive Memberships: Membership in elite clubs, exclusive resorts, and prestigious golf courses is another way the ultra-rich differentiate themselves from the rest.

Philanthropy and Foundations: While not overt displays of opulence, setting up foundations and donating significant sums to charitable causes can still emphasize their wealth and influence.

High-End Travel: Private islands, luxury cruises, and first-class flights to exotic destinations are commonplace among the ultra-rich.

Fine Dining: Dining at Michelin-starred restaurants and hosting extravagant dinners and parties at their homes are ways to showcase their culinary tastes.

Jewelry and Watches: Rare gemstones, custom-made jewelry, and high-end timepieces are often worn as status symbols.

Personal Staff: Employing a team of personal staff, including chefs, personal trainers, chauffeurs, and security personnel, is a sign of their financial prowess.

Luxury Brands and Gadgets: Ultra-rich individuals often own the latest gadgets, high-end smartphones, and designer tech accessories.

Philanthropic Initiatives: Establishing foundations and philanthropic initiatives to address social issues or support causes they care about can also be a way for the ultra-rich to display their wealth and influence in a positive light.

It's important to note that while these displays of opulence are common among the ultra-rich, not all wealthy individuals choose to showcase their wealth in such conspicuous ways. Many prefer a more private and modest lifestyle, emphasizing philanthropy or investing in endeavors that create lasting positive impacts.

If Lucky gets blood on his designer clothes does Sulla pay for a replacement or has he become extremely good at cleaning it off?

oh, he just buys new clothes entirely when that happens

at first, felix did pay for lucky's wardrobe, especially if lucky got blood on them for totally legal reasons (felix always pays because he treats his boyfriends and girlfriends real good), but later lucky becomes independently wealthy and he is not afraid to for everyone to know it. fucked up your white and gold trim outfit? throw it out, you can afford a new one! crasso is the one who'd rather just clean blood out of fabric.

anyway, playing off of this, there's actually a scene at a point where lucky finally lives up to his name and manages to dress crasso up to his own desires! it's definitely some kind of power play lmao

people posting about the met gala are not ‘literally complicit in genocide’. they’re not ‘personally murdering civilians’. equating reblogging a picture of a celebrity in an outfit to killing another person with your own hands as part of a genocide is fucking harmful. people are being murdered and you’re choosing to throw around accusations in their name so you can feel like a big guy on the internet? wobble your fucking head

i do think taping a banana to a museum wall (and untaping it to eat it in a crowd of people laughing) is good and funny joke art but semiotically you do need the elevation of a museum or else you are just a regular obnoxious rich person taping a banana to a wall for the provenance, just a certificateof ownership to replace every week in your collection. which is exorbitant not funny

omg this regulus black shit gets serious. IM OUT

Today’s match is something else fr! I went from being emotional by Nole’s speech and the reel to literally choked on my drink seeing that GOLD RACKET! Like no doubt that thing is 24K. I was starting to think the thing wasn’t bad and then they went and reminded me of how sick I was abt the whole thing.

Still very emotional about the goodbye message, just that racket took me out a bit💀

At the start of this year I had a pink party so horrendous it genuinely became a multi-session conversation with my therapist.

This weekend, I did a pink party so genuinely full of love and happiness, it completely un-tainted the awesomeness of pink parties for me

Anyway I like being an entertainer, for every nightmare gig I do like, 200 amazing ones.
