I guess the alternative headline for this post would be ‘How many millionaires read this site? ‘
RECESSION, WHAT RECESSION? VIPs CLAMOUR TO BUY NEW MILLIONAIRES ‘ iPHONE APP
The world may be in economic meltdown but that hasn ‘t deterred more than a dozen millionaires from purchasing iVIP Black, the first ‘Millionaires ‘ iPhone app ‘.
The app, which entered the iTunes store less than a fortnight ago, is at £599.99 one of the most expensive. It provides access to an exclusive network of privileges and benefits across a range of luxury partners including private islands, a concierge, supercar club, private jets, theatres, members ‘ clubs, butlers, and much more. (There is an additional cost associated with using many of the benefits).
Apparently, according to the press release quoted from above, millionaires are ‘flocking ‘ to the App Store “ and literally more than 12 of them have grabbed up these iVIP apps with iHaveNoClue prices attached to them.
Here ‘s a little more detail on what you get for your $999 for iVIP Black:
Users who download the app are required to complete a High Net Worth Individual certification, restricting use of the app to ‘Millionaires ‘.
The download price includes a private ‘Lifestyle Consultation ‘ where iVIP is sculpted to the individual user. Further development comes at additional cost including a bespoke limited edition all black iPhone.
Says iVIP Black marketing director Matthew Rowe: ‘It is great to know that there are still people out there with money to spend at a time when we are in the grip of recession.‘Even millionaires are looking to tighten their belts and are buying the app because they want to take advantage of our privilege rates with luxury partners. ‘
So they ‘re tightening their belts, but paying a grand for an iPhone app that helps them find special super-secret only-for-millionaire type offers? I mean this is probably why I ‘ll never be rich, but couldn ‘t you just hire some fool to go find some special deals for you with that $999?
Luckily, there ‘s also a ‘Lite / Bargain ‘ version of the app, for those of us who have not quite hit millionaire status yet. iVIP Blue carries a price tag of only $449.
And it differs from iVIP Black as follows:
For those not yet in the millionaires bracket, there is also iVIP Blue, which gives access to the same partners and privileges but without the personalisation or consultation.
I ‘m still around seven figures shy of being a millionaire “ so in the meantime, would love to hear thoughts on these apps from all the millionaire readers who flock to this site 🙂
