But when you wish upon a star\u2014and when you quietly throw a clause into an agreement<\/a><\/span> that links your company\u2019s future to the health of the British royal family\u2014your dreams come true.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Are you cool enough to get into a luxury gym? Lengthy application processes<\/a><\/span> create an exclusive atmosphere\u2014but who knows! Maybe you\u2019ll make it, so long as you\u2019ve got a good social media following and you\u2019re rich.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
