Who they are

He does not check prices because a price is a concept for people with checking accounts. Forty million, a family office, a guy for the Ferrari and a guy for the guy. Art isn't decor, it's an asset class with a climate-controlled vault and a Christie's relationship. The yacht is expensed to the foundation; the foundation exists to expense the yacht. His children attend a school whose tuition exceeds the median American salary, and he calls this 'just what everyone does.' Wealth this insulated stops being consumption and becomes tax strategy. He has never once experienced friction, and mistakes the absence of it for competence.

Our neighborhood

Four homes, none of which he can fully describe from memory, staffed by an estate manager who knows where the spare Patek lives. Aspen in winter, somewhere coastal in summer, the city apartment for board meetings. The neighbors are also abstractions. Property taxes are handled by an entity, never a person.

Shopping

He does not check prices, because a price is a concept for people with checking accounts. Art isn't decor, it's an asset class with a climate-controlled vault and a Christie's relationship. There is a guy for the Ferrari and the guy has a guy, and no one in the chain has ever been asked what something cost.

Spending

Forty million and a family office, where the yacht is expensed to the foundation and the foundation exists to expense the yacht. Tuition for the children exceeds the median American salary, which he describes as just what everyone does. At this altitude spending stops being consumption and becomes tax strategy.

Media

A weekly memo from the family office, an art-market report, and two newspapers delivered to four houses. He doesn't consume news so much as receive briefings. Anything behind a paywall, he likely holds a position in.

Interests

Aspen in winter, somewhere coastal in summer, and board meetings that constitute the working year. Four homes he can't fully describe from memory, staffed by an estate manager who knows where the spare Patek lives. He has never experienced friction and mistakes its absence for competence.
