This article is a very long read, but well worth it for anyone interested in the current state of society and culture. In brief, it describes what has happened in the London nightclub scene as a result of the influx of lots of youngish people of money and privilege. There are the hedge fund managers with limitless credit, Mideast oil wealth, floozy blonde spongers without morals or money, major and minor Royals with lots of money, plenty of hangers-on and little to do. Prince William once paid an £11,000 bar bill, for instance. And he and his brother Harry seem to get polluted on a regular basis.
The article is one of those pieces to read and digest at your leisure, for it provides lots of insight into modern-day culture -- some of which takes time to sink in.
A very, very good read. I promise.
