The Millionaire Factor

Yacht

There turns out to be a magazine called Millionaire which dubs itself “the magazine for people with passion.” Its target audience, based on the title, is essentially your typical member of John McCain’s middle class — pulling in a million or four a year. The publication is written in the English language, but based on the Millionaire media pack it’s actually based in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and its distribution is primarily in the Persian Gulf. That, no doubt, is because the Gulf monarchies are well-known as thriving middle class societies. Its the sort of place where lots of middle class people engage in the sort of activities depicted in the magazine — for example, relaxing on in the swimming pool that’s on your yacht.

UPDATE: Brian in comments notes the best part, the pool is shaped like a yacht! Just as your typical middle class pool-on-yacht would be.
