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?

I call bullshit
A couple of points - the top tables on the upper balcony at Amnesia cost €5k, with a minimum spend of €3k (included in the price), and a bottle of Goose there costs €400, not £500. Work in the ForEx and you're looking at the equivalent of c.215 bottles of Vodka between 8-14 of you. Even just spending on Champagne at £550 a bottle you're looking at over 34 bottles a night. Just doesn't add up...

It wasn't just grey goose and standard bottles of champagne being drunk, there was loads of expensive wines over dinner, vintage magnums of Dom Perignon rose (some of which got poured over people) anyway I stand to gain nothing by making this up. I'm not really sure why I'm bothering to explain myself.
