I was just getting too stressed out trying to find my wife a helicopter AND a helicopter pilot to fly her around. Plus buying more stuff was just getting too much for our house staff to manage. So we said "no" to Christmas and its incessant commercialism and ended up buying homes 5 and 6, and upgrading our yacht. Real estate in Monaco is surprisingly affordable. We haven't told the kids yet and I am sure they will be disappointed but hopefully they will get over it when we are in Bora Bora enjoying our new beachfront estate.

It was a tough call, but I am so glad we did it and I would recommend it to anyone.
