AMERICAN NOUVELLE SOCIAL ELITE VERSUS THE INTERNATIONAL ELITE

Brief Analogy: Differences and Similarities

4-Only business people and merchants use money to invest.

5-They carry a lot of cash wherever they go.

6-They purchase very expensive wallets for their cash and “carte de visit”. In the States, we call “carte de visit”: Business Cards. In many foreign countries, the word “Business” is replaced by the word “Visit”. Many of those pockets wallets have initials in gold. Sometimes, initials in gold are engraved on dark black Chinese lacquer. Some got to match the initials on their platinum Cartier and golden Dupont cigarette lighters. Very complicated life, isn’t it?? But, I know, you will enjoy it if you can afford it.

3-ON SHOPPING, FOOD AND TABLE MANNERS:

American nouvelle elite:

1-They talk a lot about the expensive things they buy. They brag about it.

2-They love to show off and talk about the costly food and menus they served in their parties.

3-They shop at expensive department stores, boutiques and gourmets specialty stores.

4-They love to be seen at those fancy and ritzy department stores and boutiques.

5- They eat the way they want to eat. Silverware or by hand is fine, as long as it is appropriate for the occasion.

International elite:

1-Talking about food, drink and expensive shopping is considered low class. Even thought, they want you to know which stores and boutiques they bought their stuff from and shop at. 2-Goods, clothes and special items are pre-reserved and sent to them by packages. 3- Premieres are reserved for them. Meaning, they got to be the first to look at the merchandise. They must be notified before anybody else about the arrival and availability of the best and latest trends, collections and special editions.
