A new book titled "Flight of the WASP: The Rise, Fall, and Future of America’s Original Ruling Class" profiles 15 prominent families and exposes the debauched lives of the upper crust. One example highlighted in the book is Whitney Tower Jr., a blue-blood heir to the Vanderbilt and Whitney fortunes, who indulged in drug use and associated with wealthy peers. The book reveals his descent into addiction, failed marriage, and loss of his trust fund. Despite his struggles, Whitney now has a sense of humor about his past and reflects on the fall of the privileged class.

Gloria Richards, a nanny for real-life billionaires, makes up to $167 an hour and enjoys private jets and fully-funded trips to luxury destinations around the world. She spends just half of her year taking care of the children of her ultra-wealthy clients and is typically paid up to $2,000 a day for 12 to 15 hours of work. Richards is represented by NY-based household staffing firm Madison Agency and works for about 10 families at a time. However, the gig is not without stress, as she often is hired to care for neurodivergent children of busy billionaires and celebrities, who are sometimes uninvolved in their kids’ lives.
