Being rich isn't all it's cracked up to be. We should know. The cleaning lady sees more of your second home than you do. You're afraid to take your Aston Martin or Ferrari out of the garage in case someone mistakes you for Jay Kay, and you're getting shite because the private jet isn't exactly eco-friendly. |

All this stuff does eventually begin to wear on you. What's a tycoon to do? The answer might be in fractions. In other words, share stuff. Flexpet.com, a company out of California is catering to those individual that want the love of a dog, but not the responsibility. If only they had the same things for partners. Wouldn't we all like to rent a boyfriend or girlfriend for those horrid couples dinner party, then return them the next morning. Oh right, we can. That's an escort. For those with a more traditional view of fractional ownership, we'd
recommend the Classic
Car Club, which just launched a reward points initiative. You drive
your responsible (i.e., boring) run-around around all month and then
get 'points' to upgrade to something sexy for a few days. They'll even
valet the cool car for you each day you have it. |

The concept is really taking off and has come a long way from Costa del Sol timeshares and NetJets. FractionalLife.com lets you buy a share of pretty much anything, from a hotel room, to a horse, to a helicopter. There's even timeshare handbag schemes. Just remember to try not to cry and stamp your feet when you have to give it all back, eh? FractionalLife.com
