I'll never look at China the same

[Randy W]

This is an interesting and fairly level-headed account of life with a "wealthy family where 'A love of luxury and Westernism permeated their lives'".

 

'I'll never look at China the same' says former nanny of super-rich Hangzhou family

 

She said her host family had no qualms in showcasing their wealth and described the child she took care of similarly to many of China's generation of "princelings"—his life was "ridiculously lavish and he was more than a little spoiled."

[…] we spent our weekends having lavish 50-dish banquets plus tea and drinks and being driven around in one of the family’s many Porsches. [...]

[On one occassion] the family organized an event including famous singers from Hong Kong and a catwalk show that featured their son performing a song at the end. As the performance ended, several girls asked him to sign autographs and pictures and from that his already understandably slightly spoiled personality had another ego boost.
