This is a question Conspicuous Consumption

Have you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

The threshold for considering myself 'rich'
will be if/when I choose to fly first/upper class with my own money. £1000 to sit in a slightly more comfortable seat for 10 hours? You must be fucking loaded.

Upper does not equal First Class
It's Virgin's equivalent of Business Class (Virgin don't do First Class)

BTW you can fly Air France to Tokyo for about £300, and the foods better.

Upper isn't First, and is cheaper, but still expensive.
Maybe £1000 is a bit of an exageration: I'm usually offered an upgrade for about £800 per flight, on a flight of that length.

The choice is then between £800 and being a bit uncomfortable for 10 hours. Thats £80 an hour!

And £300 - surely thats each way?
