Money cannot buy happiness but it can make you comfortable while you look for it. Being nice to everyone doesn't cost a dime and makes the world a better place.

If you're in Palm Beach and you think you're in Italy or Spain then you haven't been to Italy or Spain.

My Uncle used to say, "If their sh** looks and smells like gold, then you may bow, but until then, no one is better than anyone else"

Growing up in a city known for having more millionaires per square mile than elsewhere, I can tell y’all that money can’t buy class. There’s a difference between rich and wealthy.

I got a job on Palm Beach island in a nice but casual restaurant. After just 3 days of doing nothing but learning who was who and what they ordered/who wanted to be spoken to and who didn't and whatnot, I had to quit. I couldn't believe the nerve of some of those people getting offended if the waitstaff didn't recognize them and know they wanted the seat next to the far left window and to bring their Americano exactly 3 min after they sit. 😷😷😷 Made me feel physically ill. I can't work for people who think every individual they encounter is below them, even if the money was pretty darn decent for a summer waitressing job!

No matter how rich a person is when Death 💀 comes calling all the money can not save them

I’ve been living here for 3 months and really it’s like anywhere else; you have rich people who treat you like you’re trash and then you have people who have $$$$ but earned it and respect you as a human being. I love it here though mainly for the weather and it’s absolutely cheaper than anywhere on LI where I grew up lol

Don't envy them- in the end, it doesn't matter how much money has passed through your hands - it matters how much faith, hope, charity and love you held in your heart. Most rich people come up short.

Money is a great distraction and insulator for some people, but we all meet the same fate.

I grew up on Palm Beach Island. Interesting place to grow up. I will say this, there are indeed alot of snobby, entitled, elitist types. But there are also a lot of fantastically creative and interesting people that call it home. I don't really think it makes sense to compare a 14 mile long island to the entire countries of Spain and Italy. Look, it is worth a visit because there is alot of Florida history and beautiful architecture to see there. A very unique place.

What they mean by gated community is not literally gated. You can only access Palm Beach by crossing a bridge or by A1A. There are cameras everywhere so if you enter Palm Beach your license tag has been recorded. You can drive around to see the homes, many are so set back or have a large gate so you can't see. There is also a bike path along the Intercoastal anyone can use.

What they have doesn't impress me. I live in a camper and I'm happy and love what God has given me!

I was a resident of Palm Beach in the 80's . A place unto itself!

I recall driving down Worth Ave. some years ago on a Friday afternoon and noting that all the parking places were taken up by Rolls Royce limousines and Bentleys and the chauffeurs were standing around talking to each other and waiting for their rich mistresses to finish shopping at the chic boutiques that lined the street. It was January and all the wealthy winter residents were in town. It was quite a scene to see all these old ladies with their packages being carried to the car by their chauffeurs while they carried their little toy poodles.

That picture of Trump in a tennis outfit is hilarious! 😆

You can't buy class.

The pets of these people live better than people. Don't get me started....

Billionaire: I can tell where you belong Reporter: you can’t judge me from my shoes.

71 and 34 ... a Palm Beach tradition ... amazing. "When youre in Palm Beach you forget you're not in Italy" except you're surrounded by the worlds wealthiest creeps.

"it shows anything can happen in america" Yeah if youre rich.

Tackiness increases with wealth. Money can't buy taste or class.

Soooo.... the Gilded Age appears to be when rich Americans were masquerading and pretending to be European Nobility but without the military or feudal significance or fame or lineage. And they even built big fairy tale palaces for themselves and wore tiaras in a desperate attempt to copy European princesses. The architecture is beautiful, but it's also distinctly hammy and cheesy. I think we should preserve them because it's a very unique moment in time, but I am glad the art deco art movement came in the 20th century. Along side the Frank Lloyd Wright buildings, Norman Rockwell art, and Edward Hopper and Grant Wood. It feels more serious and sensible art movement for the USA. I worked in a Country Club in that Gilded Age tradition and it was so private and the sense of status was so silly and hammy. they were literally tacky American farmers, pretending to be aristocrats.

$200K is chump change for those people. It's not a big deal.

Without people who are willing to invest in maintaining the great architectural gems, we would turn into a country with endless strip malls and nothing of value. Historic preservation is hugely important.

these ppl dont seem very cool just rich and snobby.

Damn, this is probably the definition of ignorant. These people may be educated and wealthy but they seem almost laughably disconnected from the rest of the world in their little paradise. They aren't bad people, they are just blinded by what they have.

I've been to the Breakers, which is amazing. I enjoy getting away from the cold NY winters and roaming a sprawling property in shorts. Leaving the resort and going into town, the people are hilarious. Go and sit at any restaurant bar, and you're quickly approached by one of three types of people... a realtor, a "surgically preserved" woman looking for a sugardaddy, or a young man looking for a sugardaddy. It can be amusing or annoying, depending on what mood you're in.

Ive been to Palm beach. I use to live in Naples, Fl. I dont like either place. But if you like the tropics and the beaches, you would love it. Many millionaires and billionaires in Naples too. I have been in a few of the mansions. My husband layed stone, marble, and brick in and on these homes for many years. They are very large and beautiful homes.

Now I admit I'd like to have a little more money than i have, but I hope I'd never get to the point the old man in the interview is. He has no clue. Such a sad old man with his instant assessment of whether people are wealthy enough to garner his interest.

In the Winter , Palm Beach and South Florida are blessed with great weather , Palm Beach is very chill and Miami is very vibrant , Palm Beach is quiet and relaxing and the Breakers Hotel is perhaps one of the Best in the World for 5 Star amenities to those that like historic places . Henry Flagler's home is now a museum and worth a visit if you like history , its very memorable

To have just “ enough” and be free and unencumbered of things is a great feeling, and you know your friends love you for being you

Reporter:"Sorry what we're their age differences?" Guide lady: "71 and 31" Reporter: "That's sorta a Palm Beach Tradition" I spat out my cola drink 🤣

I lived and worked in Palm Beach for years. It is the only place in Florida that I would actually stay for winter months. The reason trump turned the Post estate into a club is that he was told he would never belong to an old social club in New England. Some of the same members of that club are members across the street at the Bath and Tennis. The Breakers was my drinking spot after hours. All the comforts and feel of home.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that Palm Beach is separate from the rest of Florida or America, but Palm Beach is definitely the jewel of Palm Beach County. Palm Beach is not "gated". Anyone can go there. It's actually pretty laid-back. All these well to do people usually come into town during season or special events. A lot of the wealthy here are not as flashy as you might think. Usually the flashy people are the one's who don't live on Palm Beach. Palm Beach is "old money". Think of Revlon, Post Cereal, Johnson & Johnson, Estee Lauder and so on. The ultra wealthy. I lived in West Palm Beach for over 20 years and the island town of Palm Beach is without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places on earth. There is no other place like it. It has a rich history and beautiful architecture everywhere. Even the small cottages on Palm Beach are magnificent. You can stroll the shops of Worth Avenue and feel as if you are somewhere in europe. Palm Beach municipal beach is my favorite spot and Palm Beach has some wonderful restaurants. It gets busy there in "season", which is early fall to late spring. It's more quiet and enjoyable in the summer months for us locals. The Breakers Hotel and Whitehall (The home Flagler built for his wife), is a must see!

Oh my goodness! Talk about synchronicity! That moment when you think "hmmmm, those shoes?" at the exact same time Mr. Rocks says his line....priceless! 😁

I remember Mara Largo back in the 1970s and there was a huge stucco wall all around the property and at the top of the wall we're broken bottles that have been glued down to prevent people from climbing over the wall lol. Things have really changed

For those of you that have never been there, it's a gorgious place with beautiful homes and of course excentric people.

My mother side of the family is from Palm Beach, my grandfather was the President of the Palm beach savings and loan on Worth Ave, my mother played tennis with the Kennedy's as a teen, and lived next to the man who was hired by Walt Disney to survey the land for Walt Disney World. Everything on the island is about money, you can be a billionaire nobody and everyone will know you, but without money your nothing to these people.

Beautiful architecture. The Adams’ Family home is beautiful!

I bet you weren't told about this story, I read the history on Palm Beach: Blacks were hired to tear through and clear all of the jungle to be able to put down Flagler's coming railroad tracks (in order to bring materials to build mansions etc.) The black workers and their families basically created a shanty town there. When the clearing was completed Flagler and his cronies threw a big carnival over on West Palm Beach for all of the workers and there families, with rides, elephants, hot dogs and cotton candy, how nice right? They brought these folks over on rafts. And once they were all over on W. Palm Beach, someone lit on fire the entire shantytown with all of their belongings with no way to get back over there and try to put it out or save any of their things. So the workers had nothing left and nowhere to go and now were also jobless. There lies some pretty nasty karma on Palm Beach.

Must've hurt Rocco greatly to admit Trump ended discriminatory membership at Mar-a-Lago

Fascinating architectural and historical tour.

I lived there the golden 1980's.The Reagan years. It was place to be. Season streched then from November to April. Now it is only few months. Love from Finland❤

Oh, the poor residents who live here! They’ve got it rough. What they need is another tax break.

The best we have is wasted on old wealth and their spoiled children.

I live in a village in France and have been to Spain about 7 times (Valencia, Catalunya, Navarre, Basque Country, Madrid, La Mancha, Andalusia) and Italy around 4 times (Rome, Piedmont, Venice, and Lombardy). Palm Beach definitely looks more Mediterranean than other parts of Florida for sure. But, it looks a bit too clean and polished. It looks more like Monaco. I lived in downtown West Palm Beach too. They got some good ideas, but it felt snobby.

Mo's tongue in cheek when he asks 'those' questions with a straight face they believe! Love those tennys! Roaring and LOL!

It’s so funny because on the other side of the bridge that connect PB to the mainland is super ghetto

It's a strange rich place.

You have to drive thru slums to get there.

Palm Beach is beautiful! Visited in May. Thank you for the video!

I have to admit, a lot of the architecture is nice and the history is interesting. That’s mostly what interests me.

Drive a few blocks west and the streets are full of beggars.

Worth avenue is something else. It's beautiful.

I know a guy worth half a billion, he eats brown bag lunches, wears clothes from Target and drives an old Mercedes because he likes the old style controls. When high rollers are in town he's one of a small group of people they call to play in high or no limit poker games on the strip, but other than that you'd never know hes rich enough to buy and live anywhere in Palm Beach he just prefers his 30yr old 3bd stucco home

Stunning homes!!!😍

Mo did a great job on this!

Here we come Palm Beach......

I have read all these posts bashing these people for having the blessings of being rich enough to live here..whether by inheritance or by their own self made riches ....these seemingly jealous haters bash these Palm Beachers for being hateful snobs...But, overlook the fact that they themselves are also being hateful snobs, just on a different monetary scale.....and I would bet dollars to donuts, that if these wealth bashers, were raised in the Billionaire bracket, they themselves would act no different than these Palm Beach people .....hating others for the blessings that are bestowed upon them is very sad and hypocritical....Acting as though you are better than someone else, runs both ways.....Be grateful for what you do have instead of what you don’t....a grateful attitude will attract more blessings into your life than jealousy and hate will.✌️💜💋

pom or palm beach?

"you forget that you're not in Italy or Europe or Spain." and what a terrible voice change on that dude.

The very last sentence of this video is pure gold...all it says is the classic.."money talks and BS walks"..hilarious.

Good OL Donald, shaking up the reptiles in their home swamp.

Reminded me of my “Flagler” past. If Flagler believed in exclusivity, no wonder I was waitlisted after applying to Flagler College for the spring semester, not fall years ago... I decided to go to UA instead to save money. I fell in love with the beautiful building that had been the Flagler Hotel in St. Augustine.

The annual dues are worth it trust me and many members of Mara Lago are members of the Everglades Club as well. The Everglades is the "Old Guard" old money club. There are billionaires that can't even get in.

I met Mo Rocca or passed by him in NYC's subway - as we caught eyes walking by, he smiled v. nicely and mouthed "hi" with a lovely smile - nice to see he is down to earth and the same in front of and behind camera.

Gosh the homes are amazing but this level of rich makes me wanna send a mob in

Wow, mar a lago is absolutely beautiful

Oh ive been to that museum. We had a great time.

You remember your not in the Mediterranean as soon as you step outside and the humidity nearly knocks you to the ground.

Reading some of the comments of some who worked on this island and had to quit due to treatment, be comforted God has no respective person. God blesses those who treat all human beings with respect, dignity, and kindness. There is a judgment day.

If I am fortunate enough to become a billionaire I would dress in regular cheap clothing, just to throw people off

Absolutely fell in love with palm beach living in West palm.

Oh this is so funny ... Lol , love his closing comment 😁

Palm Beach is very beautiful 🤩 ❤️

I think what they mean to say is it's for the nouveau riche, people who haven't had money for many generations and define their identity by it. Truly wealthy, classy, established people are never ostentatious. Most don't wear designer clothes or if they do choose plainer items and prefer well tailored traditional styles. They may have some fine things but typically seem embarrassed and define themselves as middle class. Look at titled British or the Queen. If you have to splash your money around and make a spectacle of it, you're not confident in your wealth and it's new, and likely insecure.

Plus Ultra- the official motto of Spain.

Wow I love palm beach 😍 🏖️

To value money over character is a very foolish choice, and clearly this permeates this and similar places- some people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

I have been to Palm Beach several several times years ago and I absolutely fell in love with it that is one place I would definitely definitely love to retire to but it's not going to happen because I don't have the means to do so but I love it there absolutely.

With that New York nasal accent, I would definitely forget it was NOT Italy or anywhere in Europe.

Lol I live in west palm beach.. palm beach in 5 min over. Palm Beach isn't that serious tbh lmfao

Went to Palm Beach in March of 1995. The most lifeless place I have ever seen. Not a single person to be seen anywhere.

America: Where the Gilded Age never ended

I used to live in Palm beach, Fla. And I rented a house on Linda lane on Singer island, fla.

It is amazing that Mizner lacked formal university training, at the age of 22, Mizner served a 3-year apprenticeship (1894-1897) in the office of San Francisco architect Willis Jefferson Polk, eventually becoming a partner. Polk was only five years older than Addison and was not committed to any architectural style. "His [Mizner's] architectural training rivaled that of many in the profession of his day." . Mizner assembled an excellent library, which has survived and is today administered by the Palm Beach Historical Society, on Spanish and Spanish Colonial architecture.

JUST BEAUTIFUL ..WOW...WHAT A ''HOME'' ?

As someone who is chemically injured, disabled as a result and homeless because of it, it really kills me to see these people hoarding that much wealth while I go without everything. Can't even get disability payments but these fools have exotic sports cars, gold toilets, multiple million dollar homes etc.

why is this recommended. this is all materialistic crap.

"...and yes I know, I should have worn nicer shoes..." Lol nice Aaron's

Love Mo Rocca! He’s gotten so gray!

How has this place not been destroyed by hurricanes and sea level rising?

italy, Europe or Spain you say?

I like the Vans Shoes!

Very impressive

Correction...The Mar-a Lago Estate,which is featured at 5:39,does not translate as "Sea to Lake" as the reporter originally suggested in this short doc. The name Mar-a La-go could be more accurately translated as "Out of the Sea"-"Into the Lake"[of Fire!] which would be the most appropriate and accurate translation for the meaning of the name of that extravagant estate,which Mr. Trump so aptly refers to as his "Winter White House",in Palm Beach, Florida. ✌😉

Can we just talk about how bad that graphics package is? MYST 1993 looked a hundred times better than whatever that island at the beginning is!

Mr. Adam was not wearing a footware. Brilliant.

It would be an interesting place to deal in Art and Antiques,,like to go to their yard sales

I feel sorry for these people
