14 Ridiculously Expensive Services For The Ultra Rich


The rich and famous really have it made.
Not only do they own expensive homes and cars, but they also pay for some amazing perks that make their day-to-day lives that much simpler. We found a recent /r/AskReddit thread which asked about the craziest services and products for the 1% that most of us didn't even know existed — some of the responses were amazing. Turns out there are a lot more services for the wealthy than chauffeurs and personal chefs. Here were some of our favorites:

1. Baller Fine Art Insurance
"And I don't mean, 'Sorry you lost it in the hurricane, here's your paycheck' insurance. I mean, 'The area is flooded and riots are breaking out. We're going to send a SWAT-like team to helicopter in and fly your assets out of the area and into a safer place.'" - Gevurah

2. Night Nannies
"If the celebrity mom is breastfeeding, the night nanny will come wake up the celeb at regular intervals, then when the feeding is over, take the baby and soothe it back to sleep." - Harbogoldbear

3. Full-Service Travel Agents
