Podcasts about super rich

The rich and famous have gathered at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for the Met Gala, for a dinner where a ticket costs around $100,000 U.S. That kind of price tag is unimaginable for most people, but for the ultra-wealthy, it barely registers. Money doesn't just change what you can buy. It changes how you move through the world, what you expect, what you notice, and what you feel entitled to want. For two months, New York Magazine writer Lane Brown spoke with extremely wealthy people. Some were old money heirs. Some people came into their fortunes in tech and as entrepreneurs. What he found is that having millions or billions doesn't just expand your lifestyle. It can reshape your psychology. But even the super-rich can't completely escape the awkwardness of the restaurant check. His article is called "What Does Extreme Wealth Do to the Brain?"

And is Alito really going to retire? ----- The 2026 Super Rich list has 37 firms clearing $1.45M RPL and $625K PPL thresholds after Am Law had to raise because last year's bar was too easy. Then Kirkland proved what super rich really means by dropping a guaranteed $80M over three years to snatch a star lawyer from Wachtell. The PAC Trump uses to pay lawyers is nearly $500K in the red and owes roughly $1.6M to 12 firms. When will lawyers learn that he's never going to pay his bills... at least with money. Will Sam Alito retire to cheer on insurrections as a private citizen? If he does, Senate Republicans are ready to embrace the hypocrisy and ram through a replacement. Could it be Ted Cruz?

The super rich are wildly different than the rest of us, in part by the way they've designed their lives. New York Magazine features writer Lane Brown joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the frictionless world of the extremely wealthy – where access to just about anything is automatic – the differences between old and new money and the everyday stressors that they feel that those with less don't.

Income inequality in the U.S. is surging, reminiscent of the Gilded Age, according to Inequality.org, a project of the Institute for Policy Studies. According to the Congressional Budget Office, between 1979 and 2021 the average income of the top 0.1 percent of households grew almost 27 times as fast as that of the bottom 20 percent. Which brings us to a question being asked across the country today: Should the very rich be subject to a special tax? USA TODAY Personal Finance Reporter Daniel de Visé joins The Excerpt to discuss the possibility of a wealth tax.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Er is een bonusaflevering van Rondje Europa en wat voor één! Redacteur Tom Dohle ontvangt in het Ambassade Hotel in Amsterdam een gast die door internationale media 'een rockster van de economie' wordt genoemd: Gabriel Zucman. De Franse econoom en zelfbenoemd 'detective' deed jarenlang onderzoek naar hoe miljardairs hun belasting ontwijken. Hij legt uit hoe Nederlandse miljardairs via brievenbusfirma's slechts één procent aan persoonlijke belasting afdragen, waarom eerdere vermogensbelastingen faalden, en hoe zijn voorstel het anders aanpakt. Zo wist Jeff Bezos, een van de rijkste mensen ter wereld, zelfs kinderbijslag aan te vragen, omdat hij op papier geen inkomen had. Kan één land dit in zijn eentje doorvoeren? En waarom is juist Marine Le Pen tegen, terwijl driekwart van haar eigen kiezers vóór is?  Shownotes: Ongelijkheid en herverdeling in Nederland (https://www.cpb.nl/ongelijkheid-en-herverdeling-in-nederland) Nieuwsuur: 'Superrijken moeten meer belasting betalen' (https://npo.nl/start/afspelen/nieuwsuur_5338) Econoom Zucman: miljardair tegen minimumbelasting is kortzichtig (https://www.tijd.be/politiek-economie/internationaal/economie/econoom-zucman-miljardair-tegen-minimumbelasting-is-kortzichtig/10553490.html) The Wealth Detective Who Finds the Hidden Money of the Super Rich (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2019-05-23/the-wealth-detective-who-finds-the-hidden-money-of-the-super-rich?accessToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzb3VyY2UiOiJTdWJzY3JpYmVyR2lmdGVkQXJ0aWNsZSIsImlhdCI6MTc2MDM1MTQxNywiZXhwIjoxNzYwOTU2MjE3LCJhcnRpY2xlSWQiOiJQUlk5MEs2S0xWUkQwMSIsImJjb25uZWN0SWQiOiIzNTlCQTk2NzZDQkU0RDk2OTg2NzVBNjcxMUFDNkJCNSJ9.37Go0tAJ-xfRe7lavcEuNuzZ12erTqg1fRpFI_o9wvU&leadSource=uverify%20wall)

There are more billionaires than ever. Rockstars. Oil tycoons. Internet entrepreneurs. And all of them - all of them - employ private staff. The age of Jeeves and Wooster may be over, but the demand for a dependable butler remains. Lawrence McKenna has been serving the super-rich for three decades, including stints in private suites in London's poshest hotels and the Royal Enclosure at Ascot. In this interview with Olly, he reveals how to remain invisible yet available; poised to deliver whatever a ‘principal' desires, from obscure coffee beans to a mid-coital cuppa. He explains how to carry a plate, when to say ‘yes' and when to simply say ‘it can be done', and how to prepare *just chilled* mineral water to the taste of a Saudi trillionaire...

This episode of Nina’s What’s Trending dives into the most jaw-dropping luxury lifestyle headlines of the moment. First up: A Miami steakhouse is serving a $33,000 cocktail—but the price tag isn’t just for the drink. It includes a genuine Hermès Birkin bag. Can’t swing that? You can still order the same drink (minus the bag) for $150. Still steep. Then, five women visiting Greece are arrested for using a historic landmark as a stripper pole during a social media stunt. Let this be a lesson: ancient ruins are not your personal stage. And finally, a new profession is trending among the wealthy—wealth therapists. These high-priced professionals help the ultra-rich cope with guilt, boundaries, and the stress of being asked for money by friends and family.

This episode starts with the delightful news that Marine Le Pen is going to 'le pen.' Then there's a review of Reform's rally in Birmingham, mainly because Led By Donkey's managed to infiltrate and lit up the NEC with pictures of Farage's pal, Putin, amongst others. And then Jemma and Marina ponder, not for the first time, why on earth Labour won't tax the uber rich as opposed to imposing cuts upon the most vulnerable in society?Fortunately, the conversation is starting to feature on mainstream TV, thanks to the brilliant Gary Stevenson on Question Time (NB Trawlers he was on Trawl Meets in May 2024. If you haven't listened it's a stellar ep) and the wonderful Julia Davies who is one of the Patriotic Millionaires who was busy on Newsnight and Sunday Morning Live. Wonderful to hear pure sense and rubbish myths being debunked. Will Labour listen though...? Meanwhile, Conor McGregor's bid to run Ireland has hit a stumbling block. Turns out having Trump's backing means naff all to the good people of Ireland. And there's an under rated clip which sounds like a spoof but it isn't. In the USA trump's faith healer is flogging seven blessings for a grand. Super!

It's not just Elon Musk. Be they cabinet picks, ambassadors or advisers, Donald Trump's roster of nominees is stacked with a record number of billionaires. What does that say about the times we live in? And if Trump's first stint as US president is anything to go by, it's safe to predict more deregulation and tax cuts that will serve his team nicely. But does success in making money imply success in serving the common good? Four years ago, captains of industry and tech titans were distancing themselves from Trump's brand of politics after the storming of the Capitol that attempted to stop the January 6 certification of his defeat.Last week, Facebook's boss Mark Zuckerberg announced that he was ditching US-based fact-checkers on his platforms. Will kissing the ring be good for Meta and will the rest of the world feel the impact of what is happening across the Atlantic?At a time when the world needs to come together on issues of environmental norms and artificial intelligence, what response will there be if things get adversarial?

Excellent news, people: Republican officials are mounting an all-out political push for a massive cut in our taxes next year!Well… by “our taxes,” they don't mean yours. Rather, here they come with another absurd sob story about giant corporations and the super-wealthy suffering unbearably from excessive taxation. Claiming to feel the pain of these multibillionaires, the GOP is riding to their rescue, promising to extend the trillion-dollar tax boondoggle Donald Trump handed to the rich in 2017, and vowing to add an extra trillion-dollars-worth of new breaks for them.Ludicrously, the lawmakers, lobbyists, and corporate front groups pushing this garish plutocratic giveaway loudly insist that the real beneficiaries are not the privileged few, but [cue the patriotic music] America! Lowering taxes on the corporate rich, they exclaim, will let those elites invest more in new jobs and enterprises, expanding the economy for all. Of course, that's the same ball of dung they keep rolling up Capitol Hill again and again, and it gets stinkier every time, especially now that monopolies control everything from high tech and health care to oil and food prices. Why reward them? Far from creating jobs, they're frantically automating them, and rather than increasing competitiveness, monopolies buy up or squeeze out competitors. Plus, if they get another tax windfall, the oligarchs will just use it to jack-up their stock prices, artificially making them richer and more dominant over us.Another “gotcha” in the GOP's giveaway would gut the IRS' ability to investigate and prosecute these filthy rich scofflaws who annually cheat us out of billions of dollars they owe for the upkeep of America.

She also delves into the deep-rooted cultural norms which can discourage Swedes from celebrating money, and investigates the rise in impact investing, as some of Sweden's richest business leaders plough their cash into new startups prioritizing social and environmental sustainability.
