The High Life

We’ve heard that so many times: this guy or that woman have got the life! They spend their holidays at luxury tropical resorts, stay in luxury hotels when they’re in town and drive around in state of the art sports cars that always look like they’re fresh out of the dealership.

Asides from a well paid job, rich parents or a nice trust fund, what makes these people so good with living the high life? I’ve honestly investigated this and realized it’s a mix between being raised with it and simple boredom. There’s no way you’ll look like you belong in a five star hotel if you’re excited about the fact that you’re there, maybe taking pictures of each corner you find. There’s also no way someone who was born in a sports car has a need to make it known to everyone, being by showing off its speed at a red light or by playing really loud German disco music in the stereo.

So the end result is somewhat strange and perhaps even a little ironic. People who belong in the high life act like they hate it. Or at least like they see no perks in it. So if you’re ever in a luxury hotel, look bored.
