You forgot to mention that this city has one of the worst wealth gap on Earth, with THE most expensive housing on Earth. Millions of people living in miserable conditions, anything from a family of three living in 300 ft. apartments (that's called lower middle class), tiny closet-sized apartments or literal cages

"experiences that money can't buy" but can be yours for only $160, 000 ...

“No money no talk” I hear it all the time growing up back home in HK. I live in California over 23 years now never heard this word again.

Something i really don't understand about getting hotel rooms with gyms, huge flat screen tv, etc. I mean if you are a tourist, you are supposed to be enjoying "outside" and not the "inside of your hotel". I would rather pay good money to be surrounded by happy people, strong wine and beautiful women.

Meanwhile, there are still Hong Kong residents living in cage apartments and homes.

I've been in Hongkong many times, Hong Kong is INTERNATIONAL CITY. I like it, good memories. 👍❤🌍

The money they pay for a suite room in thoese fancy hotels is actually equal to or even more than what took my parents their whole lifetime to earn for a little apartment of our own.
Such a welth gap and such a world!

Poor reporting. CNBC either didn't know or failed to mention that the helicopter pilot was famous Hong Kong actor Michael Wong.

People often comment on why HKers are always talking about money and so materialistic. It’s because they are exposed to some of the most obscene display of wealth AND the most gut wrenching display of poverty daily. How important having money is is literally in your face 24/7.

If you live there, I think it would be hard to not develop a serious fear of being poor

[dimitribarrow]

Woah. Didn't care much for the real estate but the exclusive food and dinning has me sold

You gotta love these vids, it's like saying everyone in NYC drives around in maybachs. Only a few Hong Kongers do this crazy crap, most are just millionaires that work regular jobs and take a crowded subway like everyone else ..
