MONEY MIGHT NOT buy happiness, but the super wealthy are still holding out hope this summer, flaunting their wealth on social media with photos of private helicopter rides, yacht parties and gourmet dining.
The world’s richest young people document their privileged lifestyles on Instagram in a way many of their parents would have never imagined doing.

They travel in style to pastures new.
Others opt for the yacht.
One first-class flier compares himself to former Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi as he tucks into dinner.
Andrew Warren, son of an American real estate tycoon, is on a tour of Europe this summer.
And he’s not the only one cooling down by a private pool.
Many of them also like drinking champagne – or at least taking photos of champagne bottles.

They don’t hold back on shopping trips.
Self-styled ‘serial entrepreneur’ Evan Luthra is very proud of all these credit cards.
New Yorker Cole Shneider just cruises around with big wads of cash.
