MySpace for Millionaires
"A new crop of online social-networking sites has taken aim at the rich, seeking to create exclusive Web communities of like-moneyed friends. The sites -- essentially MySpace for millionaires -- promise safe havens for the affluent where they can flirt, swap advice, plan parties and find new pals without mixing with hoi polloi..."

Impressive Attention to Detail: From the Escape Road car designs to the environments, everything in Escape Road is detailed and polished. It’s clear the developers put a lot of effort into it.
Exclusive social networks for millionaires offer a private space for affluent individuals to connect, crossy road share experiences, and build relationships.
Every time I get fooled by Australia, I promise World Guesser myself I’ll do better… and then it happens again.
Featuring culinary figures as hitters and peanuts as pitchers, Google Doodle Baseball turns America's preferred past time into a humorous experience.
Interesting concept! While I appreciate the desire for curated communities, I hope these "MySpace for millionaires" sites prioritize genuine connection over flaunting wealth. I imagine Granny would say, "Money can't buy you happiness, dearies, just fancier problems!" Hopefully, these platforms encourage real conversations, not just conspicuous consumption.
Thanks for sharing. I read many of your blog posts, cool, your blog is very good.
'Comments on MySpace for Millionaires,' huh? Seems wild that even millionaires' social media presence needs management. I was just thinking about paly veck in the veckio.com concept during my coffee break – could paly veck actually work for the average joe, or is it strictly for the ultra-rich?
that line about “money can’t buy happiness, just fancier problems” cracked me up—totally something my aunt would say. btw, if you ever paly granny3 you’ll see the same vibe haha
huh, millionaires reminiscing MySpace… kinda wild. the granny quote cracked me up. might paly veck io later see if it’s still glitchy
Millionaires on MySpace… weird nostalgia hit. I didn’t expect the peanuts pitching part, made me laugh. Gonna play pthe forge calculator later see if I can build my own elite nostalgia feed
millionaire myspace lol, i didn’t expect peanuts pitching… reminded me to play chop chains game instead, way less snobby
I didn’t expect millionaires to need their own MySpace, but here we are. The part about flaunting wealth vs real talk caught my eye—honestly, I had the same doubt.
haha millionaires on myspace feels like a throwback, but that peanut pitcher doodle bit cracked me. anyway, if you wanna kill time, play glitch karts, way more chaotic
I didn’t expect the MySpace-for-millionaires thing to pop up again; that part about peanuts pitching got me. If you ever play shift at midnight, the vibe’s kinda similar, only slower.
Millionaires hiding on a private MySpace? I didn’t expect that part caught my eye, haha. Anyway, if you want quick kicks, just play rocket goal online, way cheaper than joining their club
