Checks out that they were in Phoenix/Scottsdale... When I visited last year it felt very much like LA 2.0. Lots of plastic surgery, people flaunting wealth, and generally materialistic and shallow culture. Not representative of the entire area of course, but I was surprised by how much of that there was.

Agree on all accounts, but I'd also like to add: Surprisingly good Italian food. Not the standard "high class" American stuff slathered in cheese either. Just really good wholesome delicious high quality dishes I as not expecting that from Scottsdale.

But yeah, otherwise kind of an odd place.

Don't forget about the six beach towels for $4650:

I will never not be in disbelief when learning about things like this existing.

I think I understand art, items created by skilled craftsmen, special materials, uniqueness...This has none of those properties.

Get rich fast type of people usually have bad taste.

If you're going to go interstellar hitchhiking, worth bringing a fancy towel with you

that whole registry is amazing. It's like satirical characters come to life. There's no way this is real people, but it is.

Maybe I’m cheap but $335 for an extra small pet leash seems a bit steep.

There's this theory that illegitimate or fast gains lead people to not value the gains as much, thus more frivolous purchases.

That's interesting. I suppose that if I won the lotto I would want to try expensive things to see if they were worth the extra money. I've never dried off with $700 towels before, would I feel $695 fancier for using them?

I think the $700 of fast gains won't feel like $700, so you probably wouldn't experience the full utility of whatever fancy thing you buy.

Better hope that extra small pet isn't going to wee all over that $640 beach towel. Prices such as this give "don't forget your towel" a new meaning.

You're probably just not disgustingly rich.

I don't don't see why a sizable bank account would make one desire to put on a clown nose.

If you were poor and threw your money at sucker-bait, I might not bully you for it, because the price of the item is punishment enough already.

But if you're rich and buying that, I'm definitely bullying you.

I'm of the same opinion when I see the dime a dozen Mercedes or BMW in the middle/middle upper class ends of town. I can understand getting an AMG Merc or M series BMW if you have the money, but the average luxury brand 60 to 80k car that is parked every other parking spot with the owner maxxed out on leverage just seems foolhardy to me.

To each their own I suppose?

Even if I was a billionaire I would still want to maximize the value I’m getting as much as possible.

many wealthy people are penny-pinchers in daily life

Interestingly, this is the exact (typical) mindset that billionaires have which contributes so much to extreme wealth inequality.

They're billionaires because they don't waste their money? I don't think so. They're billionaires because they invest in companies that provide shed loads of value to their customers, so their stock is worth more.

the schedule not being chronological is baffling to me, is that a common thing?

Probably wasn't a real wedding, they just wrote that as a cover.

agreed! more baffling than their fraud!
