British millionaire spends Ł330,000 on a single round of champagne... and needed 12 staff to help him serve it
British entrepreneur Charles Shaker purchased the rare Armand de Brignac Brut Gold 'Dynastie' collection of champagne at the Billionaire Club Monaco
A wealthy Briton splashed out Ł330,000 pounds on a single round of champagne as he partied with Hollywood stars including Leonardo DiCaprio at the Monaco Grand Prix. Charles Shaker, a British entrepreneur and adviser to the ultra wealthy, forked out the fortune on an extremely rare Armand de Brignac Brut Gold 'Dynastie' collection of champagne. The extravagant buy was ordered at the exclusive 'Armand de Brignac Gold Party' hosted by the Billionaire Club Monaco.
This included a Midas bottle, which holds a huge 30-litres of champagne, and alone required four men to carry it in a custom-made gold 'Roman Litter' champagne bucket. The stunned partygoer said: 'Everyone was dancing, when the music suddenly stopped. 'The DJ then came on the mic and congratulated Charles Shaker on "buying the world's first Armand de Brignac Dynastie Collection". 'We then saw what seemed like a spectacular, never-ending stream of gold bottles being bought through the club - all different sizes.
'The club went crazy, everyone was trying to take pictures, cheering and clapping.'Shaker's table then started opening bottles and waiters were pouring champagne for everyone. 'It was an amazing night. 'The Billionaire's Club is one of the most glamorous venues in Monaco and is often frequented by top Hollywood A-listers, famous singers and super-rich businessman. The nightclub has sweeping views over the luxurious resort of Monte Carlo, which is renowned for its playground status of the rich and famous.
Samy Sass and Flavio Briatore, founders of the Billionaire Club Monaco, also congratulated him on the record-breaking evening, the eyewitness said. Hollywood actor Leonard DiCaprio was also in the club at the time, they said, along with Italian businessman Flavio Briatore. According to Armand de Brignac, the Dynastie collection consists of nine different Brut Gold Champagne bottle sizes. It includes every available bottle format, from the standard 750ml bottle to the exclusive and world-record breaking 30L Midas. Collectively it amounts to 109 bottles of the luxury Champagne. The record-breaking Midas bottle, which weighs over 100lb and is equivalent to 40 standard-sized bottles, is the same as that bought in London by businessman and entrepreneur Don Johnson for Ł120,000 in June 2011. The collection is also listed for $500,000 at Hakkasan Las Vegas, the five-level culinary and nightlife mecca at MGM Grand Hotel and Casino.

The arabs
Are we HATERS?
The honest answer is NO, absolutely not. If you come to the French Riviera etc and you obey the laws and carry yourself in a correct way. Then you are REALLY welcome! The opposite goes for those with antisocial behavior....... STAY AWAY. In the coming years they will get into a lot of trouble if not behaving correct, as local people are totally feed up....
I have been asking around to see what the guy, Abdullah Al Mansour, behind the "Orange Harem" is like. After I have spoken with a small handfull of people, I can tell you right away that he unlike many of these younger Arabs is a class act, friendly, polite and generous. And another big plus in MY book..... he is a real car guy. That again means he would be under our protection.
BUT I am not sure he knows WHO he has been doing business with...... something that will be revealed here later....
Here he is with his father. First to tell me who his father is, wins a small price....
