Some of it is also just what you are used to. In the book the The High Beta Rich, is was hard for some families to go back to flying commercial when the recession hit. In one of the stories, a little girl asked her mom what were all these strangers doing on their plane?
The Wild Ride of the Wealthiest 1% - WSJ.com
One woman was sad because she couldn't afford to finish her 90,000 square foot mansion, and had to stay in the 26,000 square foot mansion, even though in the old house when they have "parties with, like, 400 people, it gets too crowded."
That sounds like the family in Queen of Versailles.
They had to take commercial and when she rented a car, she wanted to know where the driver is.
And they're known for building the biggest home in the US. He made his fortune in time shares.
