Buying a million pound watch does not make him smart or educated, quite the opposite.

No it makes my life much more comfortable.
Having a maid to do the cleaning and pool guy, gardener etc is a big part of the joy of living here.

Rent a real life human all night here for the cost of a packet of cigarettes and a couple of beers in the UK.

 

So then...

THIS is the extent of your aspirations?

 

You are just SO EASY to please, it seems.
