Too true Ardent. When I was traveling overseas early 2000's, I had an amazing opportunity to work for the Sultan of Oman on one off his 60 chalets through Europe. It was one off the biggest eye openings to wealth and generosity that I have ever experienced. It was based in France in Fontainebleau and situated on the river Siene. It was in the Forrest where red squirrels and hummingbirds roamed. I looked after the grounds around his Mansion worth £25million ( gold decoratied inside)and his wife's worth around £10 million at the time when the £ was 2-1 Aus$.I stayed in a Mansion worth £10mill down the road. I had a maid who daily cleaned my room and did my washing. I remember his underground cellar was as big as an average Dan Murphys store, but only filled with best liquor. This beautiful well kept establishment was only visited once by him in four years.

Thanks for the very interesting post. I have my hopes on the Saudi megacity too but just remember previous mega city ideas in KSA have fallen through; but MBS is young and is trying to establish a reputation so this one will likely come to fruition.
