My dad's client bought a whole block of houses to build theirs. It is so wide that they installed a moving walkway like the ones at airports.
我爸有个客户把整栋街区的房子都买了下来造他们自己家的房子。那个房子宽到他们得往里放一个像机场里的那种横向的滚梯。

They were probably like, “Well we have an elevator for up & down, so how about sideways elevator for lefty righty?”
他们可能想的是,“好吧我们现在有上下走的电梯了,所以要不要左右走的电梯也整一个?

My dad’s client did this with three houses too. She lived with just her husband and for some reason needed three houses with hallways in between..
我爸爸的客户也像这样买了三栋房子。她只和自己的丈夫住在一起,但不知道为什么他们两人就是需要一套中间有走廊连着的三栋房子……

My boss bought a lake house and also bought the multi-million dollar lake house next to his so he could demolish it to build a helipad for the helicopter he takes to work every day (an hour drive is too much for this man)
我的老板买了个湖景房,还买了隔壁一栋好几百万的湖景房,好让他把房子拆了改成直升机停机坪,他坐直升机上下班(开一个小时的车对这个人来说太慢了)

My dad works in shipping and has a lot of friends who have worked on super yachts. In the 90s one of his mates got a call up to bring the yacht of a particular Australian media tycoon billionaire (not that one) from Sydney to New York, with instructions to be anchored in a particular bay at an exact time with a lunch spread for 50 people ready. So they got there and set up the food. The guy never showed up. Turns out he was having a rich dude party in a building overlooking the harbour and wanted to be able to point down and say “that’s my boat”. He wanted the lunch just in case he decided to take his rich friends down to his yacht, but he didn’t feel like it that day, so all the food got wasted and they sailed back to Aus without seeing him.
我爸在航运行业工作,他有很多朋友曾经在超级豪华游艇上工作。在90年代,他有个朋友接了个电话,说要把某位澳大利亚媒体巨鳄的游艇(不是那个)从悉尼开到纽约,指令是在几点几分准时停靠在某个船务,上面要有足够五十个人吃的午餐。于是他们把船开过去,把餐都备好。但那个人一直都没出现。结果他那天是在一个能俯瞰整个港口的建筑里开富人派对,他那天想要从窗户往下一指,然后说“那是我的船”。他让午餐准备好,是保证假如他想要带有钱朋友们下楼去艇上的话也可以吃午餐,但他那天不是很想这么做,所以这些食物就都浪费了,他们连这个人一眼都没见到就坐船回纽约了。

我有个朋友给史泰龙家做过装修。那里有大量他自己的塑像和画作,有一些是全裸的,并且是别人捐给他的。

I heard an interview on the radio from a guy who was from my hometown in the UK who was Stallone's personal chef in the 90s. He said Stallone was a nice guy, he had something in his house where he could watch the amount of tickets his films was selling in live time so knew almost immediately whether it was a flop or not.
我听过一个我英国老乡的电台采访,他在90年代是史泰龙的私人厨师。他说史泰龙是个好人,他在家里装了个什么东西,他可以用那个实时观看自己的电影票房买了多少,所以他能立刻知道自己的片拍的好不好。

He was married to Bridget Neilson at the time and this chef said she was walking about topless or naked all the time which he thought was strange until she walked up to him one time when Stallone was out and offered it to him on a plate. He politely declined because he liked Stallone and they were divorced a few years later so there may have been other things going on.
当时他娶了布丽吉特·内尔森,这位主厨说她总是不穿上衣或者全身赤裸地到处走,他觉得挺怪的,直到有一天在史泰龙出门的时候她走到他面前向他发出诱惑。他礼貌地拒绝了,因为他觉得史泰龙这人挺好的,并且过了几年之后他们就离婚了,所以可能当时发生了各种各样的事情。

I used to do pool and spa maintenance in my 20s. I worked on one property with a mountainside, 10 bedroom/14 bath mansion, with a saltwater pool, tennis courts, guest mansion, and a servants house that was 4 bedroom 5 bath. The property had so much more stuff, but that isn't the crazy thing.
我20多岁的时候做泳池和spa的维护工作。我在一个山景房工作,那是个有10间卧室和14个洗手间的豪宅,有咸水泳池,网球场,客房,和四室五卫的仆人房间的大豪宅。那个房子里还有很多东西,但都不是最厉害的。

I worked on this property for 2 years, year round, 5 days a week, and not a single person was ever there. The middle aged, single woman that owned it lived in a city about 4 hours away and just didn't come to the property, because she was so busy with work. A multi-multi-multi-million dollar compound, just empty. All the time.
我在这个房子里工作了两年,全年工作,每周五天,但这间房子没住过一个人。这栋房子的主人,那个住在城里的中年单身女性离这里只有四个小时的车程,但她从来没来住过,因为她工作太忙了。一个不知道多少百万的建筑复合体,空的。一直是空的。

Finally, after 2 years, I got a call from my boss on my day off. He asked if I could go to the house to put some pool floats away. He apologized, because it was my day off, but said the owner would pay me $500 to go put them away. I was confused as to why there were even pool floats out anyway, because nobody was ever there, but I figured fuck it; $500 for 10 minutes. I show up to the house and the woman's adult children were staying at the house with about 10+ kids between them all, and they were having a massive pool party/cookout. I awkwardly walked up and said to one of the parents, "Sorry, it must have been a mistake, but I was told to come put pool floats away, but you're obviously here so I'll leave." Presumably the woman's adult son said, "Oh, no, we're getting ready to leave. You can take them." Then he instructed the kids to push them towards me. I literally grabbed one inner tube float and 4 pool noodles, brought them 10 feet into the pool house, and put them away. I, confusedly, said they were all set and went to leave. The son thanked me and handed me a folded mass of $20 bills. It was $400. I was expecting $500 from my boss for payment, but I figured $400 cash was still overpayment, so I didn't mention it. The next day at work, my boss gave me $1,000. I told him the son had already paid me $400, which was fine. He said the son told the woman how great a job I did, so she wanted to pay me $1000 instead of $500 and the $400 was a tip from her son.
最终,过了两年的时间,我放假的时候从老板那里接了个电话。他问我能不能去那个房子里把水床清理干净。他道了歉,因为那天我放假,但他说业主愿意给我500美元。我当时就很困惑,为什么根本没有人住的地方泳池里还能有水床,但我后来想去他娘的,干十分钟活挣500美元。我到了房子里,发现那个女人已经成年的孩子带着十多个孩子住在那个房子里,并且他们正在过规模超大的泳池派对/户外烹饪。我尴尬地走到其中一个家长面前,“抱歉,肯定是搞错了,但有人告诉我来把泳池里的脏东西弄干净,但你们显然还在这里,那我还是走吧。”那个女人已经成年的儿子说,“哦,不,我们正打算走呢,你可以收拾了。”然后他告诉孩子们把那些东西推给我。我就拿着一个救生圈和四个泡沫轴,送到了离泳池10英尺的储藏间里,然后收纳好。我有点摸不着头脑地跟他说一切都搞定了,打算走人。那个儿子感谢了我,然后给了我一沓20美元的钞票,一共400美元。我以为会是和我老板说的那样给我500美元,但我觉得400美元还是给的太多了,所以我就没提这件事。第二天上班的时候老板给了我1000美元。我跟他说她儿子已经给了我400美元了,已经够了。他说他儿子跟那个女人讲了我做的工作有多么出色,所以她打算给我付1000美元而不是500美元。那400美元是她儿子另给的小费。

就10分钟的工作量……她甚至第二天还给我老板打了个电话,问她需不需要补贴一下我的油钱,因为她家离我住的地方要15分钟。我说我真的够用了。

I briefly worked with one of the top Saudi Arabian crown princes in the 80’s. He would buy out the top three floors of the best hotels (Four Seasons etc); two floors were for maids/help/security, top floor was for the Royal family… once it was only the prince and his three wives. Crazy shit.
我在80年代曾短暂地和沙特的某位王子工作过。他会买下最好的酒店的最顶上三层楼(比如四季酒店之类的);下面两层给女佣人,助手和安保人员,最顶层给皇室成员……一共只有亲王和他的三个老婆。真他妈疯了。

我在一个餐厅工作,有几个常客是亿万富翁的孩子。“我跟我家长说我的学费是50万美元一年。”有人问一个学生(中国的,在美国读书)怎么这么有钱的时候她如此回答。还有一次我给一桌人点菜的时候,有人让我上一托盘60杯的培恩龙舌兰酒(600美元,给一个19岁的学生)。我当时脸上的表情肯定很惊讶,因为他对我的关切的回应只是一句“我爸在非洲有钻石矿”。

This company had made several aircraft for this one customer, who I was told had purchased a new one solely because his spiritual advisor had told him that one of his current planes was bad luck. He still let his wife use it for her personal travel.
这家公司给某一位客户定制了好几架飞机,有人告诉我他买一架新飞机的唯一原因是他的精神导师告诉他现在他名下的某一家飞机会给他带来厄运。他就让他老婆坐那架飞机旅行。

To me, one of the most exquisite features of these planes wasn’t the gold plated everything, or rare wood veneers, it was the silk carpet. That stuff cost over $1,000 per square foot and feels like walking on a bed of angel feathers harvested in the most inhumane way possible. Granted, these guys don’t deck out the whole plane, just their personal areas (the aft third is usually reserved for staff and such and is more like a fancy economy class), but yeah… silk carpet.
对我而言,那些飞机最奢侈的特点不是到处贴的金箔,也不是罕见的木料做成的饰面,而是丝绸做的地毯。那东西每平方英尺的造价都超过1000美元,踩上去感觉就像是在用最惨无人道的方式摘下来的天使羽毛做成的床上行走。虽然这帮人不会把整架飞机都装修一遍,只给他们私人区域装修(机尾的三分之一通常是给工作人员之类保留的,并且更像是比较华丽的经济舱),但没错……丝绸地毯。

That doesn't sound like a big deal but I'm talking about brand new marble sinks, showers, floors and lobbies all crowbarred out chucked in skips. Tonnes of brand new polished marble binned.
听起来或许不是什么大事,但我说的可是全新的大理石水池,淋浴室,楼梯和大厅全都撬出来粉碎掉。几吨重的全新刚抛光的大理石就扔了。

New marble colours and patterns arrived in the weeks following.

I build these ships. One time the owner didn't like the marble in his turkish bath room, so they picked new marble and rebuils the room. Owner comes in, check the new look, doesn't like it and the story starts back again. Like 150k in marble, dumped out, twice...
我是造这种船的。有一次船主不喜欢他土耳其浴室里的大理石,于是他们选了新的大理石把房间又重建了一遍。船主又进来一趟,看了一下新的外观,还是不喜欢,然后又重新来了一遍。十五万美元的大理石,就这么倒扔了,还是两次……

I tutored a wealthy 5 year old. I got paid good money to spend an hour drawing and coloring and playing with this kindergartener but all in French. He had been to more places in the world by 5 than I’ll ever go to in my whole lifetime probably. The best part of the job were the perks, though. They would take me and my SO out to dinner at fancy restaurants and pay the bill no matter what it was. They would invite us over to eat some delicacy they prepared (wife was Chinese/Vietnamese, husband was Indian) and they’d always have some house guest staying with some crazy resume, for example, one time they had a diplomat for the Netherlands there to do business. They had houses in my city and in San Francisco and would fly there all the time. They invited me on several occasions but I never had time to go.
我给一个非常有钱的5岁大的孩子当私教。我的工作是花一个小时的时间和这个幼儿园小孩画画上色一起玩游戏,但全部用法语。他们给我丰厚的薪酬。五岁的他去过的地方比我这辈子可能去过的都多。我最喜欢的是工作以外的额外待遇。他们愿意带我和我伴侣去一些非常奢侈的餐厅,不论多少钱都是他们请客。他们会请我们去家里品尝他们准备的美食(夫人是华裔/越南裔,丈夫是印度裔),他们家里总是会有那种简历无比牛逼的人过夜,比如有一次他们请了一个荷兰的外交官过来做生意。他们在我住的城市和旧金山都有房子,经常往这边飞,他们好几次都邀请我去一些社交场合,但我从来都没时间去。

I also befriended and stayed with the daughter of Russian oligarchs who lived in Paris. The mom was a famous writer and the dad did something in business. Their grandfather was a famous Soviet writer and so in general they lived a very cultured life. They lived in the richest part of Paris called Neuilly-sur-Seine and had houses in the Alps, Crimea and Moscow. The crazy part, or rather sad part, was that she only had a few options for a career. She could be a doctor, a lawyer, or a businesswoman. Their son was lucky enough to study at the Geneva conservatory but that was only because he was really talented. In this family, if you didn’t have a natural artistic talent you only had those three career prospects to chose from. I had the impression that she was rather depressed about how limited her options were and how much pressure was put on her to succeed.
我还和一个在巴黎居住的俄罗斯寡头的女儿成为了朋友。她的母亲是著名的作家,父亲在商业上有所涉猎。他们的祖父是苏联时期有名的作家,所以总地来说他们的生活非常有文化氛围。他们住在巴黎最富有的地方,塞纳河畔纳依区,在阿尔卑斯山,克里米亚和莫斯科都有房子,最厉害的,或者说最令人难过的,是她的生涯只有几条路可以走,她可以当医生,律师,或者女企业家。他们家的儿子非常幸运可以在日内瓦音乐学院学习,但那是因为他真的非常有才华。在这个家庭里,假如你没有与生自来的艺术天赋,那么你就只能挑几样规划好的生涯了。我感觉她对于自己的选项如此受限非常难过,并且她成功的压力也非常大。

Was invited to a Christmas Dinner while i lived in Seoul by an extremely wealthy Korean family. Very nice family but I think in hindsight they wanted to show their friends that they had foreign friends like me. Wife had everything catered and the home professionally decorated - it felt like we were in a department store. Multiple Christmas trees, a working train set, staff handing out appetizers on plates etc. It looked like she studied Christmas movies from the USA and copied everything.
我在首尔居住的时候被一个非常富有的韩国家庭邀请过去吃圣诞晚宴。那家人很好,但我后来想了一下觉得他们只不过是想要向朋友们展示一下他们有我这样的外国朋友而已。那位夫人亲自准备好了一切,并且家里也装饰得很专业——感觉我们就像在一个百货大楼里一样。好几个圣诞树,能跑的小火车,工作人员拿盘子分发开胃甜点,等等。好像她是从美国的圣诞电影里学来的这一切,然后全都照搬过来了。

Dinner is served on a comically long table with 2 huge oven roasted Turkeys and all of the trimmings - they looked perfect. I was later told that Koreans don't like turkey & were just for decoration - they would be thrown out later. We ate Korean food. The family said I could take a turkey home and that the caterer would drop it off with anything else I wanted.
晚宴在一个长得夸张的桌子上进行,上面有两只巨大的用炉子烤好的火鸡,各种配料看上去非常完美,后来他们告诉我韩国人不喜欢吃火鸡,那两只鸡只是放在那里当装饰的——马上就要扔了。我们吃的还是韩国料理。那家人说我可以把火鸡带回家,并且承办酒席的人保证可以顺带把我想要的东西都送给我。

I’m not super rich or anything, but I think gifts are kickass and I’d much rather spend my money on a cool gift for a friend who can use it than on something extra I don’t need. I was a software engineer while most of my friends are/were in grad school/med school/working low-paying jobs, so I’ve enjoyed being able to chip in or get nice things for them when they said they couldn’t. I do always make sure they’re ok with it and ask if I can in advance so nobody ends up uncomfortable.
我自己并不是什么超级富豪,但我觉得送礼很有用,并且我也更愿意把我的钱花在一个超级酷的礼物上,送给能派的上用场的朋友,而不是买个我自己不需要的东西。我是个软件工程师,但我的朋友们基本都是在读研究生,或是读医学,或是在薪水不高的行业工作,所以我很喜欢在他们说没钱买什么东西的时候给他们买个好东西。但我保证会提前确认他们可以接受,并且我也会提前问一声我可不可以买,这样没人会觉得不舒服。

I did IT work for a tiny little private company like the owner, his brother, and me. guy called because his new pc wouldn't turn on and it's like 3pm he was 100% willing to pay for me to drive 5 hours one way to get it working today because he wanted to play games today. Ok so 5 hour road trip one way and the address is this huge fucking mansion 100% thought I was in the wrong place. Use the intercom at the gate and nope this is the place, guy and his wife are really cool and the dude had built his own gaming rig... it was absolutely over the top, I had never even laid eyes on hardware that expensive before... he never turned the power switch on his PSU on... he payed the base rate of $1400 for me to come out there to flip a switch I also installed his graphic drivers but that was technically free, and then gave me $5000 cash as a tip all because he was excited to play league of legends on his new pc.

There's something hilarious about having a super expensive battle station decked out with everything one could need, and then using that to play League of Legends. None of the games that have crazy hardware requirements and offer crazy graphics, he went with the game that's known for running on a toaster. Good for him.

One of my friend's parents won a $50 million lottery. We used to work together in the few years we knew each other before that happened so they know of the struggle of spending most of your days working in food service to earn a few grand a month. Fortunately they haven't changed as a person so I still like spending time with them. But it was hard to watch someone I used to be in the same boat spend more money than I make in two months on a bag last time we went shopping (well, they did - I couldn't afford the air in the places we visited).
