I do not live in London neither have I been to London. But in the country that I live there are high brow areas and low brow areas just as it is in other countries. The rich affluent and super wealthy always have a place for them in any city of the world.

You can't tell the economic crisis on them because they are the ones who influence major economic policies and lobby politicians to their favor. Therefore they should appear happy because.
