I’m impressed by the opulent interiors of the house. The hosts are equally eager to flaunt their wealth.
The unusual décor that catches my attention is a sneaker wall. The most expensive sneakers in the world are displayed on floating shelves. Some of them cost $2 million to $17 million.
I wonder if the sneakers lend speed to life.
An interior décor magazine floats the idea of using discarded shoes as unusual planters, and I see a few in the lawns of houses where the well-heeled crowd lives.
A feng-shui expert takes the cake when he writes it means stalled movement. “Don’t let the grass grow under your feet” translates to “Don’t let your shoes grow weeds in it.”
I watch a man on crutches wearing a specially designed shoe on one foot walk out of the gate, and a fear grips my guts.
Shoes are meant to be on your feet, not displayed as a status symbol or kinky décor item.

Well said, Reena. Such an insightful commentary on the rich who only know how to flaunt.

What are the Ambani women doing other than flaunting clothes and jewels? They hold positions in organisations to show. Anybody with a busy work schedule cannot find time to keep styling outfits and photo-ops.

Do such punches ever reach the rich and the mighty? I wonder how long will that weed survive!

I don’t think it ever will. Ayn Rand justified capitalism on the ground that capable people earn it with hard work. Now, people usurp it by using power.

This touches this wealth oriented society so well. The money people waste on status symbols is such a waste. Thanks for joining in my friend
