35 Strange Jobs That Only Exist Because Ultra-Wealthy People Can Afford Them
Interview
Money can buy you almost anything. But it’s only when you become truly rich that you begin to realize the breadth and depth of the products and services you can spend your cash on. Entire swathes of jobs exist solely to service the ultra-wealthy.
In a captivating thread on AskReddit, people shared the industries that revolve entirely around catering to the whims of the rich. We’ve collected some of their most intriguing insights to share with you. Scroll down below to take a peek at what life as one of the elite looks like.
Bored Panda got in touch with the author of the intriguing thread, and they were kind enough to share their thoughts on wealth and other priorities with us. You'll find our full interview with them below!

This is a sort of related story.
When I worked at Home Depot, two men came in looking for a jigsaw. The one guy looked like he probably had money, but had worked his way up the blue collar ladder to get there. The other guy, really had money, Rolex watch, expensive suit, shoes that cost more than I made in a month, etc. it seemed to me like they had been friends for a long time or maybe they were brothers. And guy one was taking guy two out shopping for a tool as a new, lets me show you how regular people do things, type of experience.
They came and asked me about the different jigsaws, guy one didn't really need my help, but all this was new to guy two. So he let it play out and was kind of coaching guy two. It was interesting to watch, almost like a father teaching a young kid how to shop, and get help from the employee.
Anyway at the end of all this guy two pick the jigsaw he wants, and says. "Okay, I'll take this one, can you wrap it up and have it taken out to my car?"
I look at him for a second, and then look at his friend, who is trying not to laugh, he says "no, no, no, that's not how it works, we just take it off the shelf and go to the register and buy it." He takes one and hands it to him, then says, "let me show you how to pay for this up front" and they walk away.
What's super crazy is about 10 minutes later they come back and I ask them if there is anything else they need, and the rich guy reaches into is pocket and pull out a money clip, peels off a twenty and starts to hand it to me, saying "thank you for all your help, I really appreciate it"
His buddy is like "dude no, he probably can't take a tip, that's not how this works" and looks at me with a bit of awkward panic on his face. I said, no, I'm not allowed to take tips, but if you want, you can put that twenty in a donation jar somewhere. And I was happy to help"
It was one of the weirdest interactions I ever had at Home Depot.

Maybe off the topic a bit but I lived by a high end ski resort area. One day i was killing time and wandered into a jewelers. It was slow so we just chatted. One thing they said that stuck with me was that the people who show up in expensive looking clothes and attitude quite often were not that rich. it was the people who came in dressed 'normally' who would buy the $30K ring or whatnot.
Bored Panda asked the author for their thoughts about the most important things to focus on in life, aside from finances.
"I think the two things that everybody should try harder to focus on are to learn more and to try to live with more compassion for everybody. We're all just out here doing our best, and everything you learn (whether it seems relevant at the time or not) helps you do even better," they told us.
"And if we remember that even people who might hurt us are trying their hardest, based on how they understand the world and what they know to do about it, we can make it less about fighting with one another and more about figuring out how to play better together."

I know someone who designs the IT and security systems for mega yachts. Not those piddly 100-foot yachts, the $300 Million+ yachts. I found out that one of the contracts he won was like a $10 Million contract. I'm in IT so I had to ask how that much IT can go into yacht. He said it's not the quantity, but the quality. For example, the electronic door strike for card access isnt the off-the-shelf model. It's custom made with 316 stainless steel that gets milled by hand and fitted perfectly to a door that's made out of mahogany.

there are only 10 known Yachts in the whole world valued currently over $300million. To understand Yachs, 28 Meters and longer is a super yacht, 50m/60m (depending on which registry) and longer is a mega yachts, 75m/90m (depending on registry) and longer is a giga yacht. There are only 45 Yachts in the world of over 90 meters long, Of the 10 over 300m, all are between 139m and 180m long. All of those boats are 100% Custom except the engines and the navigation and control systems. There isnt a market for so few items, so everything is customized bc of how rare they are.

We were also curious about the inspiration behind the interesting thread. "I asked the question because I thought that generating a conversation about how much of our society is dedicated exclusively to this small group of people and how different their world is, would be useful," the redditor opened up Bored Panda.
"I think that people resonated with it because it's something that they see every day and live alongside, and I think that people are thinking about these things more than they have before."
There are lots of services focused on elite luxury and vast wealth that you might not even realize are there. That is, until you stumble upon them by accident or finally make it big and start splurging.
“The wealthy have long been the ones to enjoy luxurious lifestyles and exclusive services that cater to their specific needs. However, there are many expensive services for the wealthy that most people don’t even know exist,” trial attorney Andrew Pickett, the founder of Andrew Pickett Law, told GOBankingRates.
One of these services is having access to fractional ownership of experiences, such as private jet travel, rare collectibles, and luxury vacations. Another is hiring experts to manage and curate your wine collections.

My dad used to work on cranes, and one time he, he crew, and his crane were shipped out to an island for a couple of days to move an old-growth tree a couple hundred feet to improve the oceanfront view of a private residence.

Concierge Medicine. They get picked up in a chauffeured car (provided by the health system) and taken to the hospital. Front line to get labs and tests, results ready as soon as it is read (which takes priority of everyone else). They meet with the doctor the same day to go over the results. Meanwhile, you get a catered lunch while you wait... but not with the poors. You get to wait in your very own waiting room.

There are services that fill bookshelves with books in personal libraries/offices. You can curate the books by color/subject matter. Probably not a rich rich person type thing, but still a pretty niche service that a normal person would never even know exists.

This goes back for at least a century and a half. Victorian gentlemen building a new house would include a library, and have someone fill the shelves with books sold by the yard, for decor rather than reading.

For a bit certain 'wanna be' upscale restaurants used to have real books as decorations. (Maybe Marie Callender was one of them?) Being a a reader, I always looked at the titles and occasionally pulled a book down. They usually ranged from 1920-1950s, and were certainly nothing that I could imagine anyone wanting to read. I often wondered how they got that many c**p books.

Once upon a time that used to be Reader's Digest, didn't it? A book every fortnight, a "classic" in hardback with a fake leather-like cover and rather unimpressive splotchy print inside. I know because mom subscribed back in the 80s so I'd have "proper" books to read. But, come on, what is an eight year boy old going to get from Jane Eyre, other than "boarding school sucks" and "romance 🤮"? It was pleasantly gothic in it's imagery, however, so that was nice. But Steinbeck...oh good grief.

As a girl, I appreciated the Steinbeck and thought Jane Eyre sucked. Go figure. The classics were at least a 'real' book! It took me a bit till I twigged that the library versions were so much better reading than the Reader's Digest condensed books. They were abridged, and not always very well. My very young self was outraged! Although it did introduce me to books I wouldn't have read otherwise. I was only allowed to go to the library once a week and usually ran out of my selections, so had to read the RD condensed cover to cover.

I don’t know if this qualifies as “very rich” as many people I know who use this are middle and even working class, but horse masseuse is a thing.
I pay a woman to give my horse a massage once a month- $65.

Woo, as far as horses and the rich--different world. Not only will they have multiple houses all around the world, but they have stables attached with very expensive horses--think in the 50-100k price range. These horses are kept in tip-top shape and in continual training just in case the owners happen to be passing through for a week or two and feel like a ride. They may or may not have a professional rider compete their horse for bragging rights.

Services for the rich is a huge part of the US Economy, about 20 million jobs are directly tied to services for the top 1/10th of the 1%, and those jobs pay on average 30% above market rate for similar jobs, not to mention other things. This is huge part of the US Economy.

My partner is a master marine tech (yachts). It is mind blowing how much these people can spend without even thinking twice about it. Most owners enjoy their yacht once a year, for about a week, and still pay for a full time crew 365 247.

also 3/4 of yachts are rented out when not in use by the owners, and these can be for up to 3-4 million per day rentals. Owners use it sparigly, but they rent them out through services to those who cant afford one, but rich enough to lease one for a weekend. That is what covers the cost of crew. And ofc you pay crew full time, this is their job, they live on the boat when not on their weeks off, even when in port.

Not even the super rich, the upper middle class today can afford charters if they want. A private 14 seat jet, New York to Paris, is cheaper than first class for 14 on the same distance depending on charter service. Upper Middle class who fly first class use this as well for privacy.

Sometimes marketed to the ultra-rich as e.g. “continuity of civilization”, "life-continuity insurance", or “resilient real estate”, things the press calls “survival bunkers,” “doomsday shelters,” or “apocalyptic retreats”, for times of civil unrest/breakdown, disease outbreaks, climate disasters, war etc..

Oh, no, don't open inwards! Yes you protect the hinges like that but you leave it susceptible to being rammed. If I was designing a place I'd want a door that closes flush into it's frame and has bolts that come out all the way around to hold it in place (think like on a submarine). This would lead into a sort of cloakroom, and then there would be a second, stronger, one inside. Don't pin your hopes on one single door. I'd also be looking at the possibility of pneumatic slide doors (like watertight doors on a cruise ship) that can be triggered to section off the entire place just in case it was breached. With a key that I carry being able to get the doors to open so I can still move around. If you're planning for the apocalypse, surviving the war will likely be easier than surviving the aftermath.

The brands listed here, with the exception of Patek Philippe, are chump change in the world of high end luxury watches. Patek is the only one with two models that go for over $10M, and they don't break the top 5 in the industry. With the most expensive Chopard watch you could buy 80 pieces of the most expensive Vacheron or Audemars, 30 FPs or 10 of the most expensive Langes. And you would need 2 or 3 of those Chopard "201-carats" to buy any of the top two Graff Diamond models.

There are a bunch of services doing this on any major track, and a few that tour from track to track doing "Track days": it's not for the ultra-rich, it's achievable for any motivated upper middle class and definitely possible for anyone with a good income. Participating in a track day with a company such as Kateyama (for pro drivers) or Puresport (for amateurs) would cost about 500€ for a GT3 experience, 3000€ for a Formula 3 or other feeder series, and about 8000€ for an actual Formula 1 (possibly 10 or 20 years old, but still)

You need to investigate who actually own 'corporations'. The vast majority are owned by small private investors, and funds set up to manage investments and pensions for millions of investors. For example, the biggest shareholder of Exxon-Mobile owns less than 1%, and is an investment fund for millions of people. The idea that only rich people own 'corporations' is untrue, and this is easily verified as most shareholders are publicly listed.
