Crown Prince of Dubai visits Vancouver (PHOTOS) (http://www.vancitybuzz.com/2014/04/crown-prince-dubai-visits-vancouver-photos/)
-from the article:
He previously visited Vancouver in March 2013 and during that stay made Canada’s most expensive real estate deal. His family’s property at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel covers 15,000 square feet over the building’s top three floors, encompassing the penthouse plus three sub-penthouse units to create one massive luxurious penthouse unit with unparalleled views of the inlet and mountains.
-wonder what cars the prince owns. :suspicious:

I don't know if it's a publicity thing, but to me it's kinda cool that he's getting out and doing real Vancouver stuff, like hitting the mountains and what not. Seems like he's taking a lot of photos of different places himself too. Rather then hitting the clubs throwin' money round.
not gonna lie. saw thread title and pictured this

Whenever you hear of some richer-than-rich person being in any town, I always picture them being covered in gold and other rare jewels, protected by a gang of twenty bodyguards, and staying hidden away inside a fully blacked out, armoured SUV. As jegresh said, even if it's simply a publicity stunt, it's nice to see that even the ultra rich can be just like you and me and enjoy the same outdoor activities as us. If I ran into him on the street, I wouldn't know him from anyone else (likely due to the subdued nature of his clothes), and I kinda like that.

He should be throwing that money to:
- The Indian slave male carpenters who built the city
- The Various ethnic female housekeepers who get beat to shit
- The various child jockeys who are sexually abused.
On the surface, it sounds like all the above ^ would get paid livable wages due to wealthy clientele but that simply isn't the case
The fact this comes from Van City Buzz is really no surprise

You don't need to look rich to be rich, those that floss their "status" are usually the ones living paycheque to paycheque.

This guy was just born into the elite. He doesn't have to do anything except make people aware of who he is.
And what better place for a rich person to visit than Vancouver where everyone, including the rich, strive to be rich as if nothing else in life is important.

why would the prince come all the way from Dubai just to party? i'm sure if he wanted to do that he would go to Europe/Vegas/Miami etc. Makes sense if he's in Canada and wants to explore the great outdoors of the west coast.

It's cool to see him come all the way to Vancouver to check things out like the mountains and take photos and stuff, rather then party and throw money around in Europe/Vegas/Miami.

It would be cooler if he spent a billion dollars on something revolutionary
Technology,
A new way of living,
The environment,
Dramatic new architecture,

So i'm assuming you're from Langley. I have a question that has been in the back of my mind for awhile now...
I met this girl who told me this. "whenever someone says nice bum where ya from?" the correct response is "Langley, wanna bang me?". She told me that this is common knowledge in Langley, but I honestly haven't met anyone from Langley in the last few years to confirm.
Is this in fact true?

Yep, heard it before

I thought the reciprocating response was "Kentucky, want to fuck me?"

Seems like certain people from a certain mainland of a certain Asian country could learn a thing or two from this Crown Prince guy. I.e., that having money =/= "ignorantly do whatever I want, including disrespect the culture/customs of any country I visit" mentality.... just sayin'.

Just because he carries his own camera makes him grounded? How much do you want to bet he brought his nanny with him? and she was the only female on his 747 plane. The dude is still part of a family that won't let woman drive or leave there house with out a male chaperone. I have talked to some Saudi's and they hate the royal family.

This dude is from the UAE though.

My expectations were pleasantly surprised after seeing some of his photos. It could be a lot worse, he's no poster child for "rich kids of instagram" where posts are all about private jets, Louboutin shoe collections and moet & chandon. Live and let live I say, no need to trash a guy just because he was born wealthy especially if all he publicly advertises about himself is mostly his nature shots. I've never met anyone that was born into riches that simply gave it all away.

You have to remember his instagram account is a propaganda tool for the ruling family so he's not going to be posting stuff that will make him or his family look bad. Everything he posts is very generic in nature and reflects positively on him, his family and the UAE. There's actually few members of the ruling family on instagram and all of them have similar accounts. The prince of Ajman Sheik Rashid a.k.a RRR is much more flasher with his toys but even his instagram is pretty generic.
