You have no idea how much money certain people have from this region. Some small examples....College students would leave well over 20K in a USA banks after done with their education and go home. Some students would give cars to friends. As to the Royal family members that do not fly their own air equipment I know they paid people who were millionaires to move out of an entire neighborhood in the most expensive part of Arizona to establish a compound while one member of the family received medical care. Gifts to everyone who took care of them, doctors, nurses, etc. Oh and a new medical floor and wing.

You do have a huge wealth gap issue though with very very poor people
