    I know it's a bit off topic, but still shows how money "real money" sucks out the spine of most reporters/documentary makers.
    I remember a series from about 10 years ago when a guy was "investigating" the world's super yachts and boats.
    Two episodes were spent on a a super cruiser that was ordered by a Saudi Prince (don't ask me which one, how many are there?), but the thing was, the guy was eternally impressed by the Prince's good taste and how hard he had worked to make his dream come true....of course, we never did get to see the prince in his dungarees and a screwdriver in his hand!
    I just bet the spineless idiot making this programme stayed in a nice hotel with Saudi largess....can't think of anything else that might have made him, after one of his final monologues, congratulate the owner for having a boat that was worth about 2.5 million pounds a foot...it was a 100+ foot boat!
    Disgusting!
    We still have idiots...mainly on the BBC....idolising rich people for building "their dream home", against all the odds, only they don't build it, other people build it for them!
