The top 23 holiday pics and vids from some of the world's most rich, cool, or affluent people
23. Lady Michelle Mone — she's one of the rare self-made millionaire women in Britain and is the poster child for the classic rags-to-riches story. Growing up in an impoverished part of Glasgow, Scotland, she is now the Baroness of Mayfair and spends Christmas in places like this.
22. Arjun Seth — the CEO of the dietary supplement company Protein World, which came under fire for its "body shaming" bikini ad, showed how the party is still going in Dubai despite the furore. Earlier this year, he said the attention from campaign groups about the ad's alleged body shaming directly boosted revenues by £1 million.
