Cost of a Newport Millionaire Household Payroll
The piece outlines a multimillionaire household in Newport and New York, detailing wages for dozens of staff from private secretaries to coaches and gardeners. It estimates annual running costs around 325000 and notes larger sums for yachts, stud farms, clothing, and entertaining, with a satirical look at lavish expenditures. It also includes a coy note on a lonely lady seeking matrimony and mock personal ads from the Herald.
