Who cares, honestly? Jealous much? I see you're buying into Obama's class warfare rhetoric hook, line, and sinker.
Another thread was asking the question should the wealthy arm themselves. This is just a thread about how the very wealthy arm themselves. Why carry a weapon when you can hire the british royal marines to guard you. Has nothing to do with envy. Just pointing out the disconnect.

The elite wealthy live in the shadows.
The CEO's and others you see flaunting their wealth for all to see are not the 1% you want blood from.
Guzmán reportedly strolled into a restaurant called "Barrokas" in Piedras Negras, with several of his bodyguards. After taking his seat, his men collected the cell phones of approximately thirty diners and instructed them to not be alarmed. The gangsters then ate their meal and left – paying for everyone else in the restaurant.[20] That same month, Guzmán was reportedly seen in Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico, repeating his exploit at the "Los Platos" restaurant [21].

alright then, the FAMILIES earned their money. that work better for you? and what does it matter anyway? if i made myself extremely wealthy, you can bet that i will pass on much of my wealth to those coming after me.
Well when the 1% are on their yachts on the high seas or in port. They can have the benefits of advanced military technology and trained british royal marines at their disposal. So the question from a thread earlier about whether the Rich will arm themselves is kind of moot? They don't arm themselves that have the Royal Marines arm themselves on their own private yacht.

Well good for them. What the uber wealthy choose to do or not do with their money is of no concern of mine. I don't care, nor do I understand why you (or anyone else) does. Whatevs.
...........yet you always seem to be concerned about other people's money. Why not just be concerned about what YOU do and what YOU can do to better yourself?
Life is not a "zero sum game" in which one person has to lose in order for another to win. Liberals don't seem to understand this. If thier premise was true, there would be one world sultan and the rest of us would be living in mud huts and driving oxen carts.
Focus on your life and you will be happier. If you always look at what others have (there will always be somebody richer) you will be bitter for the rest of your life and will never be happy, regardless of how much wealth you accumulate. I am pretty well to do, but there are ALOT of people that have more money than I do. Guess what? I don't care. That is their life and not mine and it does not conern me.

I am fine with where I am. I make as much as I want to make. I am in position, much like yourself where that is possible, but thanks for caring.
