Super-rich pick flats with private security as sales rise of £15M London homes

Being super-rich comes with the unfortunate affliction of paranoia that criminals are about to take your precious dollars from you, which private security companies are only too happy to exploit to take your precious dollars from you.

London historically is a nice city. It's too bad that rampant criminal enterprise has been imported into it.

Oh the problems of the super-rich... never feel sorry for the owner of a £50M home.

"The super-rich have been warned by their advisers that they could soon expect people with “pitchforks and torches” coming to look for them unless they do more to use their fortunes to help the millions struggling with the cost of living crisis."

Unless this world's (super-rich) elites change how they treat / (ab)use everybody else, I'd give it a 50/50 chance that history repeats itself. We know how that goes...

And how fittingly - in other news:

"Big five oil companies to reward shareholders with record payouts"

Nobody lives in them.

can private security own firearms in the UK? if not, not sure how they are supposed to protect you from the "mob"...
