The one percent is proving once again that they can do what they want…when they want…because they have the money.
In a new book by social anthropologist Dr. Wednesday Martin called “Primates of Park Avenue,” she exposes the tricks that “upper crust” moms use to make their lives easier. One of which is using a “black market” connection to hire handicapped tour guides to walk them through Disney parks. This way, they can take advantage of the line-skipping entrances for disabled patrons.
How do these women sleep at night?
Here’s a testimony from one of those rich mamas in the book:
“My daughter waited one minute to get on ‘It’s a Small World’– the other kids had to wait 2 1/2 hours,” one “rich mom” is quoted as saying. “You can’t go to Disney without a tour concierge. This is how the 1 percent does Disney.”
According to Gawker:
Though the so-called “black-market Disney guides” are said to charge in the neighborhood of $130 an hour for their services, the New York Post reports that the $1,040 bill at the end of an eight-hour tour is still far cheaper than the $310-$380 an hour the families would be paying for a Disney World fast pass and VIP guide.
“Who wants a speed pass when you can use your black-market handicapped guide to circumvent the lines all together?” Dr. Martin writes.
Oh Naw…just spend the money on legit passes if you have it! How rude.
