Counting on Becoming a Billionaire Someday? Here’s a Handy Guide To Traveling in Style When You’re Rich Beyond Your Dreams (2 of 4)

VIP Luxury Vacations

A lot of folks assume that the 1% prefer to travel by themselves. But in reality, even they want to mingle with new people and even network. It’s just that they prefer the company of others who also arrive via private jet. So, no, they aren’t signing up for a $700 safari package where they’re hanging out with regular small business owners, school principals and the like. They’re hanging out with the crowd that does the VIP casino club thing, gambling in private rooms that cater to whales. Although the rich like visiting Paris, Iceland, and tropical destinations just like the rest of us, they do it with other people for whom money is no object.

Vacations That Go On and On

If you’ve accrued some vacation time that allows you to spend five days in Prague, good for you! But for the ultra wealthy, this just won’t cut it. They need time to soak in the culture. In fact, some of them will just stick around for as long as six months at a time if they really love a place. Sure, a lot of regular people can also set up shop in a city they enjoy and become a digital nomad for a while, but they’re generally living out of cheap hostels or studio apartments. By contrast, wealthy globetrotters are renting out the penthouse suite of a luxury highrise apartment for the duration of their visit.
