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?

Also, I'm going to double the prices to reflect expensive bars.
and factor in 14 people.

It still leaves over 24 litres of vodka per person over 96 hours.
That's 1/4 of a litre of vodka every hour, non stop for 4 days.

That's if all the money was spent solely on vodka and 14 people were drinking it constantly for 4 days.

Sorry but I just think this is bollocks.
No company would ever justify £75,000 in four days for a marathon piss-up holday, anyway, ignoring the rest.

Yeah, I'm inclined to believe this actually.
Just because something is stupid and pathetic and indictivive of what is wrong with huge parts of society doesn't make it false.
