qu ils mangent des brioches.

Current societies seem very complacent in relation to the spending of politicians and elites. Unbelievable.

@@MultiSUPERLATIVO les dépenses des politiciens sont très encadrées maintenant , quant aux élites, heureusement ou malheureusement, mais nous sommes encore dans un pays de liberté...ou alors, il faudra refaire une révolution, ou demander à poutine ou autres dictateurs...

meanwhile parisians are being forced out of the city bcs they can't afford to live in their own city anymore

@@lm_b5080 et que faudrait-il faire, obliger les gens aisés de partir, de faire baisser les prix par décrets. nous sommes dans un pays de libertés, les prix libres, l' offre et la demande....c' est partout comme ça...

where people stay is part of their travel plans.

Probably by jets

@@Smithpolly ya, WHERE not HOW

No "the rich".

Not the rich, the aristocrats. The French revolution was a "bourgeois", liberal revolution.

@@lannes2068 Not only the aristocrats, far from that ! Between 1792 and 1796, 2918 people were beheaded in Paris. Out of the 2918 people, 305 were aristocrats. The rest and major part was commoners (farmers, artisans, servants, soldiers, shop owners, lawyers, employees, physicians, judges, etc : many of them being middle class and bourgeois).

Samaritaine is not where the ultra rich go lol just an ad…

Not the people. They hate everyone.

Paris is overrated. Because lot of people come France, come to Paris and that's it.

@@Fromtheforgottengardens I'm not parisian at all but i can tell you that Paris is absolutly not overrated ! It's not a reason all visitors come to Paris and not in any provincial areas for saying Paris is overrated....

​@@lesamisdelacuisineprovenca9534Only 1/3 of the foreign tourists go to Paris. That's still a lot though.

Agree 👍🏽 Seems to me if someone is Wealthy enuf to spend that amount of Money to Stay in a Yucky Hotel room 🤮 they’d be Better Off Purchasing a flat or a quaint little Cottage in Paris.

$44K to them may be like $40 to you. I, too, can't wrap my mind around this, but not being rich limits my imagination.

@@bc41exactly 44k is pocket change when you are wealthy with a net worth over 100 million 😜

I absolutely agree with you; it is the zenith of bad taste of flaunting money!

I always say that as well, but who knows? If we got billions of dollars, we may not care.

And what about when you travelled?

they own that penthouse and stay on those hotels

Well not every rich person wants to own a penthouse I every major city. If I only plan to travel to Paris every few years at most, why would I buy a home I'm never gonna live in? This is just for ppl that are traveling, not ppl intending to live their at all.

it's hard to get a 360 view, given that most buildings are old and short. and there is a height limit for new buildings (max 12 stories i think)

Exactly. The presenter's french pronunciation is irritating.

Their domestic audience won't know any better.

I agree, but (she tried) not everyone is as talented as you mate :) Dur dur d'etre doué ;)

8:07 the way she said morels even

i was amazed at how well each of these french people spoke english! that's better english i've heard from any french than in all my years in paris. i guess that's why they work in the industry

@sergiosevero9551 Yes but it is Bonne journée

search up "hidden swimming pool". i recently saw a house-selling vid n that house had such a pool too! it's an interior design thing

It does look interesting! It must be a more modern addition, at some point in the video a renovation was mentioned

Ppl with lower income tend to flip flop with their feelings towards the ultra rich. One second it's finding them interesting and obsessing over everything they do. Sometimes using them as inspiration for their ambitions in trying to climb the ladder of success. And when the economy isn't in a great place, ppl tend to complain about how 'unrelatable' they are and how they are stupid for how they spend their money. It's funny bc rich ppl haven't really changed their behavior over the years, they've always been known to enjoy luxury. If you can afford it why not? It's only lower income ppl that go back and forth in thinking this behavior is either unrelatable or inspirational.

I noticed it too, I think it's physical conditioning from his job ,holding bottles in a certain way

His hand looks paralysed, perhaps from a birth defect or an accident. What a lovely gentleman he is!

Eric Beamjard lost the usage of his right arm in a motorcycle accident when he was 18

You are right! Whenever I spend, I always consider how my rather limited resources should be allocated. Why spend $ 200 for a meal when I can save to pay almost all my electric bill for the month? It is all about setting life's priorities. I would much rather allocate funds to help an elderly friend pay their rent than visit Disneyland or take an expensive trip anytime.

Avenue Montaigne

Yes. Lafayette is for the common people who want to feel like rich people. The service is okay. The truly rich don’t go there.

I met Mr. Bernard Arnault many years ago after he purchased Louis Vuitton. Without doubt, Mr. Arnault is the most elegant, classy and dignified gentleman I have ever met. We shared a few moments sharing stories. I asked him when visiting Paris; Isn't it wonderful for you to see lines of eager, potential customers lined outside the shops, cordoned by velvet ropes, waiting to give you money? He smiled and replied, I am most fortunate!

I can see instagramers doing that

@@is8249 😂

Always remember, a fool and his money are soon parted! I always seek quality and value within reason. For me, I prefer hamburger, spaghetti, or simple salad over a fancy meal anytime!

said no one lol

May not include the tip...

TOTALLY AGREE

If it's electric powered it is not a yacht, it is a large dingy powered by batteries. No thanks.

Why? Mickey Mouse is a thief with no morals at all! Why frequent establishments or companies that don't embrace your core values?

😂😂😂😂😂😂

@RobustArid379 NO, but they serve wine.

In french, we say "La cité des lumières" so it's city of lights if you want to do a traduction. And it refers to the importance of Paris in "le siècle des lumières" or "Age of Enlightenment" in english.

Mea culpa it also refers to the electrification and public lighting of the city.

Never visit or frequent Disney. Crappy company with zero family values.

@RobustArid379 You mean Disneyworld? Get up to speed. Eurodisney is at Marne la Vallee a short RER ride from downtown Paris.

Over 20 years ago, French police warned what would happen if the government continued to allow Muslims and Africans into France. The results are obvious, and the cops were prophetic! The once highly cultured, intelligent, and magnificent French culture, heritage, traditions and history are presently being taken over by those who share none of its values, traditions or respect of law. Bottom line: The French government, much like the British, have destroyed their own societies that required thousands of years to create and build, and for what?

@GRIMM905 I lived for several years in Paris in the early 1990s. Delightful non invasion environment. Unforgettable. Will it ever be the same again? I doubt it.

@@pindapoy1596 Rich invasion is okay tho?

@@agfagaevart NO, IT IS NOTParis hs 2000 years of culture and the rich are usually ignorant and vulgar and unaable to appreciate beauty unles it valued starting above $ 10 000

Especially by women

@horus808 Paris has decayed, it is true but I have known it in 1990-2010 and it was superb.

The city of Paris does the best it can to constantly clean the streets and other places. However, unwanted migrants from other places foul footpaths, alleys and seemingly everywhere. The Paris I once knew is no longer. How sad!

@justrandomthings319 Try NYC and if you manage to come out in one piece, then visit Paris

With unwanted Muslims and Africans, not interested in visiting anymore. How sad. Thanks for the memories!

@Xavierxavou Une poubelle on peut la nettoyer, une poubelle woke ce n'est plus possible.
