    The truly rich live even differently. They have trusts, of course, but their personal expenses are paid for by their personal non-profit charities that provide an allowance to them that’s managed by a family office and full time controller/money-babysitter who is also the family’s fixer and consigliare. Additional big purchases live private jet airfare and shopping sprees are paid for by an amex the controller just pays off.

      I sometimes tell people to watch Selling LA and ask themselves what it is that all those buyers and sellers do. Most of them don’t do anything except sell multimillion dollar properties back and forth to each other. Pretend jobs for rich kids.
