Deciding between 50-ply or cash wads in the bathroom. Eating unflavored Kix because your butler forgot to import those Clinton Street Baking Company pancakes for breakfast.
Going outside without your Fonzworth Bentley-looking, umbrella holding doppelganger protecting you from 75 degree weather because he has shingles.
Let's pour out that bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon none of us 99'ers can afford in respect.
But let's also save some for a certain 20-year-old Swedish kid. Said youth, whose name remains secret, is living the high life. He has a $30 million property portfolio and a $10,000 monthly allowance, thanks to his very stinking rich gazallionaire daddy.
And because his lifestyle absolutely needed another upgrade, Pops copped him a brand, spanking new, $244,500 Ferrari 458 Italia in March 2014.
Now, we at HD in Effect aren't car aficionados. The closest anyone here has ever come to driving anything exquisite is a Camry Hybrid. So we had no clue just how amazing a Ferrari 458 Italia really was....until we peeped video of a mom test driving that animal. The thing sounds like a beast trapped under the hood struggling to get out, getting closer and closer with each second the engine kicks.
This car seems more epic than a Batman and Superman VS. Goku and Vegeta Fatal Four Way fight to the death. Which is why we cannot, for the life of us, possibly understand why this young man decided he didn't appreciate this amazing present.
Side Eye Note: We probably should've mentioned in the third paragraph or so that this kid already has 15 cars, all on dad's bottomless bank account.
So he tried trading the Ferrari for a newer build. But when he found the quoted price wouldn't match the cost of the upgraded car, an (assumedly) crooked ass car dealer convinced him that setting the vehicle ablaze to collect insurance money was the right alternative.
The dealer came up with the idea to set fire to the car and recruited an accomplice from his garage to help, reported 20 Minutes.In order to deflect attention, they decided to carry out their operation in Augsburg, Bavaria.Leaving the car in an industrial area, the young Swiss owner and a friend went to a massage parlour in order to establish an alibi while two others set light to the car, which eventually exploded.
Each accomplice received 15,000 francs for their help, said the paper.But of course, their plan backfired:
Last Wednesday, the young pyromaniac and Co. appeared before a German tribunal. There, he admitted his cash flow had run dry, presumably because he'd blown it on yes men constantly throwing Richie Rich dollars at his feet.Security cameras and telephone records quickly led police to the Swiss quartet, who were arrested in Switzerland and brought to Augsburg.The Ferrari owner was placed in custody but quickly left again after paying his 200,000 euro (215,000 franc, $219,000) bail.
He also didn't have the guts to tell Papa he hated his new toy.
While you digest that, we'd like you to take a few seconds to remember that somewhere, in Someplace USA, Europe, Africa or Whatever, some underprivileged youth has either just died or is about to die because they lack basic human needs. Done? Go back to mourning for the kid.
And what a tragic ending to this story-a judge sentenced the kid to 22 months probation. Let's hope he can cut back on his Percocet stash to survive those upcoming piss tests.
