Are they stupidly rich or just stupid? Or have egos the size of Everest?

Or some other genuine reason?
is someone a little bit jealous here that they can’t afford it. If someone travels business maybe it’s because they are valuable to their company, have worked hard to be able to do it or just treating themselves. Hardly an excuse to call them stupid. Mind you some may do it for the space and get away from some bitter, moaning and miserable people that do travel economy. I wouldn’t want to sit next to these people even if the flight is only 1 hour. Also have you ever thought that the cost of these tickets may allow the airlines to offer cheaper economy tickets, or even keep the route going.
