Im in my 50’s and have learned that my family is my wealth. Yes I have plenty of money but its the relationships I have with my son and grandsons that bring me true joy in life. I’ve been all over the world and my greatest joy is always coming home to my family. Given the choice of attending some super upscale event like an opera or whatever or an evening at home having dinner with my family it’s a no brainier for me lol
When I gave my 5 year old grandson a bicycle for Christmas one year the look on his face and complete astonishment that it was for him is a memory I will hold close to my heart forever. Ask me where I went on vacation 3 years ago and I don’t remember lol. So remember this: family, friends, home and community are what’s important, having money does make life a bit easier and less stressful but its not the be all end all of our existence. 100 years from now my bank won’t remember me but my family will.
You are in your 50-s and you have grandsons?! My parents are near 70-s and they still dont have grandsons or granddaughters..
@@tabularasa9576 always room for those a little less developed than the rest of us!
My sentiments exactly. No point to have money and not spreading some joy with it. I asked my Grandson whether or not he wanted the mattels Tractor and trailor that he could play with on his playroom floor or if he wanted the sit on batterry driven life size version of the same, he looked at me as if I was weird and said " Grandpops that won`t fit in my garage and its too big to push around the floor! He always chooses the small toys never the larger more lavish ones. Kids and family is the real life not things.
Beautifully said. I’m in my late 20’s, I’m chasing wealth because I’d like for my family to be financially secured and would like to be able to dictate my time. However, you are so right, happiness is found in human connections and helping others.
Tbh, I feel most ultrarich people live like they are impervious to death. Having multiple fancy homes only makes sense if you live a very long time indeed.
I'm one of the lucky ones, I have learned a very important lesson in my 57 years. You can have everything that money can buy. But if you don't have someone who truly loves you, and wants to spend time with you. It's just glittery, empty toys, and your home is cold and lonely!
I agree. I'm 50, divorced, my girls are 19 and 21 and one is gone the other about to leave. Have a beautiful 4 bedroom house with a huge backyard and a great big tree out front. I ❤ my house, but its going to get so lonely around here soon...
I agree completely. I wouldn't trade my close relationships with the people dearest to me for a billion dollars. I really wouldn't. And I would be embarrassed to display such wealth in a country (the U.S.) where millions of people are literally paid slave wages, 30 million people have no health insurance and can't afford basic health care, and education is disintegrating. Having things never gives a person class, and depending on how one gets wealth, having things can be evidence of no class. There is much more honor and dignity in being an honest, decent, low-paid service worker than in being a billionaire sociopath addicted to money. And when this life ends, love survives but things disappear.
Wise words there mate, well said.

A cousin bought a house on a lake from a rich family. After the sale, they handed the key to our cousins When they went to the house, they had left dishes, clothes, etc, a pontoon boat and I think 2 jet skis. They did not expect all that but of course they did not turn it down either.

Most people procrastinate because they're unsure. We over analyze because we're unsure. Just do it anyway. Time costs lives, Most times it amaze me greatly the way I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years to doubt that opportunities are bound in the financial markets, The only thing is to know where to focus.
@Ma Cherie That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
Wow I can't believe you guys are discussing about *Gary Mason Brooks* , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended.
@jasonlauu Yes i do, I've known him for couple of years , I'm still using his services , His management team is quite impressive so far.... with my $15,000 deposit, I made over $288,000 profit with just 10% charge.
@Ma Cherie It's 100% safe and legal , He’s an expert trader on stocks and crypto. I basically do nothing but collect profits, he was able to get me in early on most of these stocks and I exited just at the right time, his analysis was really on point.
@Ma Cherie You can get in touch with him by googling his name, you will find his official website.

@Imantas #9 re: housekeeper position, it's spelled 'maid' - not made; and how do you know what race J Monytice is?
I grew up in a large estate home as a kid and young adult. Very rich miserable parents. They had everything and hated each other and we knew it. Keeping the home clean was torture. My parents stoppped the housekeeper once I became a teenager. I became the housekeeper. My brother was the pool boy. We had white carpet throughout one wing of the house which was a high traffic area. I felt like Cinderella cleaning it all the time. Granted being the housekeeper built character and instilled a great work ethic in me. I never took my good life for granted.
They gave us daughters great education but did not teach us financial literacy. Only my brother got that privilege as he was set to inherit it all. Unfortunately when my father retired and handed the family business to my brother it was wreck. Back taxes, shady business deals, you name it. The skeletons came out of the closet on my father's "successful" life and my brother is in debt to his eyeballs as a result. Now father lives alone in that estate his wife divorced him after 40 yrs marriag. No one wants anything to do with him. Such is life. I hope it was worth it to him.
😲😲
So sorry for your family. I hope that those broken relationships can be healed.
In my case... it's irreparable. But I put my love and trust in Jesus, the Savior. He certainly saved me from commiting suicide because of a painful childhood.

If I had money, I would have 1 home because that would be all I would want to keep up with. Anywhere else I wanted to go, you can always find places to stay in for visits. And I would never want something so big that I had to hire a full time staff to keep it up. Less is better and travel would be what I would do.

money can buy confort and reduce stress
Being content gives you comfort and reduces stress
I think money could give you some sense of comfort and reduced stress depending on what you do with it. But it sounds to me like these people don't have any sense of comfort or reduced stress. Their stress appears to be multiplied. I certainly would not want to live like this. I can see why so many rich people kill themselves after watching this.
But to get money u need to ignore comfort and will be more stressful
Actually, if you talk to very wealthy people, it creates lots of very serious problems like gold digging, fake friends and people constantly trying to get something out of you. Better to be upper middle class. Nobody knows you in that case and nobody cares what you do.
@Wyatt Martinez
All these big high rise luxury apartments sitting empty , ruining the sky line whilst looking down at the homeless is wrong.
Plus it keeps the wealth tied into the property and not in the society the property exists in..
Instead of calling them ' Luxury Executive Apartments ' they should be called ' Luxury Laundry Service Apartments'.
Considering this is more on the „lifestyle“ side of documentaries, them also being at least partially critical of class separation is pretty amazing.

Disgusting! Meanwhile 4.5 million poor families use food banks in the UK
Remember that there are multiple Billionaires that have given Billions of dollars to charaties, yet nothing changes. As someone who started with nothing here in the states when I was 7 years old back in 2004, my family had nothing. We literally rented a room for my mom, dad, brother who was 1 and I. We had barely anything, my clothes were all donations, dumpster finds, and yard sale clothing. There were times when we didnt have food on the table, I remember sometimes 1 bowl of cereal was the only meal I my brother and i had. We asked the government for help but they refused to give us anything, I started working when I was 11 in order to help my parents make ends meet. But that gave me a different perspective on life especially now that I look at my cousins and their families they all conform with what they have, but for us when I was young, my parents taught me to strive for something more than simply what we had. Which is probably why I think that just giving people what they need is not enough, they will simply conform and will see it as "well the government pays for my house, food, etc, why do I need to put in an effort to better myself." Sure the government could give a them a hand but demand they better themselves and not simply expect them to always give them everything. But that is just me, especially with what I went through my family fought and clawed ourselves into where we are, we aren't wealthy people but have enough to pay our bills, food and a nice cars. But it's not enough to put out that fire in me for more success and I don't see wealthy people as evil people, because there are many who went from rags to riches. I see them as an inspiration and I think it's easier to give people a small boost but require them to work for themselves to get to where they want and if they dont, well there's no point in pushing them if they're unwilling to do the work.
@Charles Lee Ray no it happened to us, mainly because my parents couldnt get all the paperwork needed (cali) you literally need to jump through so many hoops. And as for my father's income at the time was under 25k before taxes, my mom couldn't work. It's also pretty difficultwhen you live in the middle of nowhere and even more so when family turns their back on you. The only reason we got a foot hold and were able to climb out was because our former landlord was a real estate agent and gave my father work, I would go with him sat, and Sundays and breaks to help him doing what I could, she also allowed us to rent one her properties. That allowed my dad to work his way up in her company and earned about 45k before taxes. Even 3 years ago when my dad passed away we got a 180k bill for a 3 week stay at the hospital, and when we asked for medical we were denied 2 applications because we couldnt provide proof that we no longer owned a car from 8years prior. Then they said we had to wait another couple of weeks to talk to someone in person. We contacted them multiple times until we were finally able to explain them the situation. Honestly that's how things have happened I'm grateful to my former landlord because once I turned 18 she gave me a decent paying position as a landscaper and through that I was able to work my way up. I'm 21 now and am working my a** off to get a GC license because I and now the head of my family and i do not want my youngest brother to struggle, and that's what I've told him and the middle one. The middle one is now learning a trade and we hope to keep working to get better. Whether you or anyone else believes me or not makes no difference to me but that's why i dont really believe in just giving people something and them not working to get better but to each their own.

You're right, the proportions are entirely wrong. One would've thought they would have commissioned an architect who actually had a proper understanding of Classical architecture.
I agree, it was bland! The windows were dated, didn't capture the views.....
I agree with youu
Lol... nobody said they had to be in 'good taste', of lasting quality, beauty or utility! They are speaking solely in terms of the perceived material value of the property, its placement and/or 'amenities' it has to offer, etc! As stated, these are 'investments', *not* homes!
Besides, I haven't really seen too many designs in recent decades that take *any* of the 'classical' esthetic elements into account, which, IMO, is the distinguishing factor between a 'big building' and an actual architectural work. Thus, I figure most will be recycled/replaced/continually 'renovated' over time - a pointless exercise, at enormous expense, no less.
It's all become about 'how big, flashy, trendy or gaudy can it be' - what an absolute *waste!*
Moral of the story, be born super rich and you will be ok.

Collecting and hoarding all the best places and not using them is just wasteful.
These buildings generally existing is wasteful. No one needs that much space and equity, money or not.

lol keep telling yourself that.
Having a house where people just waste putting out flowers and getting your cars ready just in case you may one day show up, really is a waste. But guess it keeps people employed though?
At least the employees get to enjoy the flowers and clean home? They might as well own it.
Just Lovely.
When there are so many people struggling to make ends meet, this seems so obscene.
Stop your complaining and make shit happen. #TheGameIsNotZeroSum
Exactly.
Whether they inherited their wealth, or they worked hard to expand their empire, there are much worse things a person can do with their money, than buying houses. If they were running a drug operation, a brothel or having illegal fights to the death, then I would have plenty to say. Buying houses is not hurting anyone. The rich people can do whatever they want with their money. For the sake of tax advantages, they have their charities that they contribute to, and it would be generous to do things for the poor and homeless people, but they don't deserve to be criticized if they choose not to.
B
If you earned it by yourself its not obscene
Whats worse, being rich or having kids other people have to pay for? To me both are obscene. Your kids, your responsibility. But wealth SHOULD be shared. Tax the fuckers but what is the solution for people having so many kids without any plan everywhere in the world? This is what is destroying the world.
At least the Medici family put a large portion of their monies into public good and public works of art and architecture - this is just self-absorption.
You have been sold the myth of the Medici. The truth is -
The only reason the Medici put any money into art was because they were so guilt ridden (as Catholics) about their family business as usuries (basically loan sharks), which the bible describes as possibly the most despicable occupation of all or any. It wasn't public art either. It was mostly commissioned portraiture and allegorical art (laced with their own family members as the actors) to adorn their private properties and often private chapels where no one uninvited could see the works.
The Medici were despicable Machiavellian overlords who were, historically speaking, some of the most self-indulgent folks that ever lived.
"if you want to know what God thinks of money (lenders)..." observe what the Medici did to try to gain absolution. They only cared about themselves. They were accidental patrons of the arts.
Never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
And how much you put?

If they earned their fortune they get to spend it how they want. They shouldn't have to do shit for we the poor.
Very interesting reading this toxic comments section.Pathetic how many people rush to judge" the billionaires"based on a few incidents in one city, but have never even met a billionaire.My perspective is somewhat less jaded as I am friends with a couple of billionaires as well as a handful of multi-millionaires. Most are loving fathers and husbands, HUGE contributors to charities, and generally highly educated and very likable people.Very unlike the super-rich described in this video.I am quite sure these "financial aristocrats" do exist but that doesn't exemplify the lifestyle of all of the ultra-wealthy.My hometown(Houston,Texas) was devastated by a hurricane in 2017 and we worked along side some of the wealthiest people in Houston loading trucks and handing out food and supplies,and yes,the rich people were doing the manual labor with us as well as providing much of the food, supplies and money that we distributed. Several of my ultra-wealthy friends volunteer at inner city homeless shelters (which they also bankroll) and are on a first name basis with many of the clients.Before passing judgement on a complete class of people, please be honest with yourself about what YOU do tho help those less fortunate.If you have a computer to read this on and electricity to run it then I can guarantee you there as some in your city with much less than you have.That being said, please note that I am not a multi-millionaire or even close to it...
Randy Husband don't delude yourself. There is not one billionaire on this earth who has made his money the honest, hard working way. They got wealthy by screwing other people over. Their life style is unconscionable and immoral because it flies in the face of global suffering of the 99%.
@@harrypjotr1935 : and you "know" this because you actually know how many billionaires? Probably never even met one.Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of pieces of crap ultra-rich that live like the ones in this video but there are others who have worked hard all their lives to build a fortune and now spend vast sums of it to help others.As long as YOU are doing your part to help the less fortunate then you can criticize the rick all you want, but most are quick to point the finger at the the rick while they do little or nothing themselves.I do not know you or your heart so I will not speculate.Only You know if you are helping others,as I truly hope you are.There is light and darkness in ALL classes of people.
@@randyhusband8542 you have zero political awareness, dude. I realized that the moment I read your comment. And btw as a MSW I am more than familiar with what you call 'the less fortunate'. Good day!
@@harrypjotr1935 : let's be real, what you are is a idiot, plain and simple. You are jealous of those who have what you do not. Not willing to waste any more time on you...goodbye.
@@randyhusband8542 too bad, it was just getting interesting. And btw you're lacking grammar skills: It's 'an idiot' not 'a idiot'.
As the saying goes "If you want to know what God thinks of money, look at the people who have it" - money surely doesn't mean taste or class as is clearly seen in this documentary.
Yes complete lack of taste and personality. Everybody wants to look like everybody else. Sounds like High School. Just absolutely ridiculous and makes no sense whatsoever. These people must be completely emotionally stunted.
Stop hating
I actually think those mansions are beautiful as hell.
having great taste and being poor doesnt work lol. its better to be tacky and have 15 billion.
Not Money, its the LOVE of Money!
I worked in Belgrave Square, it is astonishingly grand and rich there
Here's the secret, folks.... "absolutely nothing truly worth having in life can be bought. Nothing. Everything that is of genuine worth is a gift" Nietszche. The joyful science. Think about it. He is absolutely right. Stuff without taste is ghastly beyond words. As perfectly demonstrated in this documentary
Fresh flowers is an Elton John “thing” which is why he was put on a budget of $10 million per month about a decade ago in order to curb overspending... on fresh flowers for all of his estates and homes! Sir Elton’s net worth in 2019 is valued at US$450 Million which is a laff because, all things considered, apart from his pop music catalogue with Bernie Taupin (lyricist), Elton has other productions in collaboration with Tim Rice such as The Lion King franchise (film/theater), AIDA and Billy Elliot, in addition to revenues from his residency in Las Vegas which recently ended. Currently, Elton is on a Farewell Tour, one would suppose, because he has vowed never to perform in large arena venues again after age 72 haha (Elton just turned 72 on 25 March 2019)... “so goodbye, Yellow Brick Road...”
Just remember you cant take it with you when you die. Is your heart right with Jesus?
John 3:16
Amen!

If these wealthy people who love to show off so much, really knew how other people don't give a shit about their super-homes and cars and toys - they'd probably be very disappointed. I can't think of anything lonelier than rattling around by myself in a 30,000 sq. ft. "home". The amount of greed and self-love that is needed to maintain that image is very unappealing to be around. I am much more impressed by someone living in a one-room 500 sq. ft. apartment and donating their money to charities. There is only so much money one person can spend on themselves, and they certainly can't take it with them.
To put it simply and succinctly, what goes up, must come down.
In this case find that house and bulldoze the fuck out of it and turn it into a community park or some shit time to fight and die for it and if they see us as criminals then fucking let them.
LMAO @3:38, smug guy "You wonder how much time you can spend in a bath watching a movie"
Yes, most of these places are garish as hell, and yes, the whole program of manic mansion building is incredibly selfish and wasteful, but the thing that I'm most struck by is the almost desperate pursuit of a thing never attained. The hunger that these people feel will never, ever stop gnawing away at them. It's all very sad.
Very true. It is the lifestyle of sociopaths, psychopaths and narcissists. Such people are always looking for something that is always out of reach because they don't seek spirituality and they don't care about their fellow humans.
All this while a housing crisis rages for the lower and middle classes.
@serena brown Irony much! Seriously, shut up.
The houses are on the market to be purchased ....
Should houses be given away?
They're causing it along with the banking sectors of the world.
We now know what the experiment (low interest) does. It makes boom bust bubbles more bubbly and more destructive. And shifts much of any money into real-estate creating a new feudalism of empty palaces and farm and commercial estates. Pushing all prices rents and housing prices are ruinously high that many families literally must room together and often go homeless for a period of time, perhaps in a shelter or in their cars or a tent in some park.
jmitterii2 wouldn’t that be easily solvable by just making more land available for buildings?
Not in London ofc, but elsewhere.. its not like millions of superrich are building this
big houses? Poor and middle class refugees and economic migrants probably take 100s of times more space:)
@@lukazupie7220 There's too much money to be made building homes for billionaires eager to show off. It's so much more profitable so developers tend to focus on that rather than build low-margin economical homes for poor and middle class.
It's a multi-layered problem that is not easily solvable because of a terrible misalignment of economic incentives and basic needs.
Beautiful and big houses..so fascinating and marvelous...but what makes these mansions more beautiful...are the PEOPLE.. living in these multi million structures.
Millionaire row in NYC and all around the world 🌎 Very rich families like Hilfiger and Weston family and of course the Shannon family dystany yes
They're all investments. But I would turn them all into hotels or apartments and rent them out to the public.
Hiya that’s a great idea. Make money make money for you.
yes they call airbnb.
to use these homes costs money and up keep etc, when people buy investment homes they don't want to run some hotel, they just want to buy and slowly let the house price rise and sell at a vast profit
How sad that there are so many people wasting resources to fill something within that can never be satisfied by material accumulation. Instead, try actually doing something directly for people in need or sharing your talents directly with others. Certainly, that would be much more authentically satisfying..... helping to spread happiness and security to many more people than just you and your closest relatives.
you probleblyn ot a millinair
This whole video is awesome, thank you all for making this video, it really helped me have a wonderful day and time, thank you again, Billionaires and all there employees, film crew and all.
Amazing.
Money doesn’t make you happy, either does being broke
quite frankly i'm tired of jealousy disguised as nobility.
Just to remind you that a man's spending is another man's income. ponder that kids

What is your point?? These could be just an investment for them?
Sometimes the poor are poor because they want to be poor.
I would love to be in a position where my job was just to maintain wealth for myself versus working a 9 to 5 chained to a cubical saying
" thank you for calling customer service this is Ronald, may I have your name?"
@@ronblack2700 I don't honestly think anyone says they want to be poor. But I DO think many aren't willing to do what it takes to move up. Some people inherit wealth, others are self made. Some of the self made folks just get lucky, but luck alone won't let you hang onto what you have. That takes some brains. One of the smartest things CEO's do is to surround themselves with smart people. People who are well versed in different areas. Those people lay out all the facts and the CEO LISTENS......then makes a decision.
I think what many here in the comments section are really talking about is "how much is enough"??? As some have said and they even talked about in the video, these houses increase in value rapidly. If there were stocks that went up that fast it would be difficult to buy them. Even the rich "flip" houses...but on a grander scale and they have more means to increase the value to cover the costs with a nice profit too.

Well I don't believe in luck, I believe it is a blessing from the Lord who gives the wealth from hard work.
Although all is entitled to an opinion, why criticize someone who works hard to invest as such to be in a place where all they have to do is maintain the investment to live a certain lifestyle?
Plus you have to always invest into to keep the money coming in.
As far as someone being poor? Some make alot of excuses as to why they cannot move up to the next level, while some simply don't try. That's just like some people people who live in public housing will never buy a home to increase their self worth but will buy an expensive car, or even have a boat in their driveway, but in the same breath will complain about being poor.
While others stay on welfare and foodstamps all of their lives.
So yes some want to stay poor.

@@Isweartolucifer distribution of wealth is a piramid. So the mindset of the peasant as you so arrogantly said is best for most people.
@@hansmemling7605 let's be honest we all want to be in the top of the pyramid and not in the bottom
@@titaniumsteel2050 I prefer to be comfortable over discomfort but the top of the piramid doesn't interest me. It's lonely you have tons of enemies and a lot of people are looking to get your money.
But why try to evade taxes when you already have more than enough?
Because they are greedy.
Maureen Wahu do you think that they know what they are doing. It's way over my head.
that why they having more than enough at the first place.
Taxes are for the little people.Laws.
Evade evade with money if. I could have earned at least a million dollars all factors usefulness, i couldnt say there is an evasion in the conversation of the Brickley foundations.
With practically anybody who did not earn this money a million dollars is chump change. Tells much about the he state of affairs as it pertains working class Americans.
Homeless indigenous are terms used to all perpetrators their fair share while the rich here are encouraged to FORGET who the shares belong to.

Once I win the powerball, I'm going to Monaco! But in all seriousness, all the rich kids I knew are dreadful adults. The kids from nothing make good and work themselves to death or disability by 45 to 50.
