Money doesn’t just buy extravagances — it can buy a completely different lifestyle. Many wealthy people indulge in top luxuries the average person will never get to experience.

I asked ChatGPT why many high-end products, services and experiences are exclusive to the rich and it said this is due to a variety of economic, psychological and social reasons. Some of these include the high cost of quality and craftsmanship, artificial scarcity and status signaling and the psychology of exclusivity.

As for what it’s like to enjoy these luxuries, ChatGPT said it’s a mix of comfort, exclusivity, personalization and status. Keep reading if you’d like a glimpse into 10 of the fabulous ways the rich spend their money, at least according to ChatGPT.

Private Jet Travel

Flying commercial can be a hassle, so many wealthy people take a different route. ChatGPT said private jet travel allows them to avoid airports, fly on-demand, enjoy full privacy and experience gourmet service.

“Many own jets outright or have access through jet cards and fractional ownership,” the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot said.

Mega-Yachts

If you’ve ever wondered what a mega-yacht is like, think floating palaces with full crews, complete with helipads, pools, cinemas and even submarines, ChatGPT said.

“Weekly operating costs can rival annual salaries of average workers,” the chatbot added.

Multiple Mansions Globally

The average person is lucky to own one home, but many wealthy people own homes just for seasonal visits, ChatGPT said. These tend to be in elite locations like Monaco, Malibu, Aspen or the Hamptons.

Haute Couture Fashion

Rich people aren’t seeking out sales at the mall. Instead, they’re wearing — often once and never repeated — custom-designed clothing from Chanel, Dior or Valentino, ChatGPT said.

Private Art Collections

When you have a lot money, you don’t have to go to a museum to see exquisite art. The wealthy buy and display multimillion dollar pieces made by artists like Picasso, Basquiat and Banksy that are rarely, if ever, viewed by the general public, the chatbot said.

Exclusive Experiences

When it comes to entertainment, the ultra-wealthy are in a league of their own. For fun, they enjoy private concerts by famous artists — like Beyonce, Andrea Bocelli, etcetera — front-row seats at Paris Fashion Week and backstage access at major global events, ChatGPT said.

Personalized Health and Longevity Services

Even healthcare is different for the wealthy, consisting of services like full-time private doctors, stem cell treatments, cryotherapy chambers and gene therapy, ChatGPT said.

Additionally, the AI chatbot said they often enjoy health optimization retreats that cost six figures.

Exotic Cars and Custom Hypercars

The average person might struggle to afford one car payment, but the rich fill their garages with limited edition Bugattis, Paganis and custom-built Rolls-Royces, ChatGPT said.

“Some never even drive them — just collect them like rare art,” the chatbot added.

Elite Education and Networking for Children

Public schools are for ordinary people. Wealthy kids attend elite prep schools and Ivy League pipelines, often having private tutors, consultants and international internships, ChatGPT said.

Discretionary Power and Influence

It’s not a coincidence that rich people often have authority.

This can be achieved in a variety of ways, such as purchasing museum wings, university buildings or political access, ChatGPT said. Some wealthy people also buy their way into secret societies and ultra-exclusive clubs, such as The Yellowstone Club and The Trilateral Commission.
