Royalty

Kings had fine feasts with rare foods from afar. I can drive to restaurants serving cuisines of all kinds. Kings prided themselves on fast and strong horses. My truck is much faster and is hundreds of times stronger. Kings boasted of jesters and musicians. I have YouTube. Kings called upon scholars for answers. I have Wikipedia. Kings went on pilgrimages to far away lands risking their lives against diseases, disasters, and war. I can fly almost anywhere in less than 24 hours. Kings could bathe or purchase expensive perfumes. I have a shower, deodorant, and shampoo. Kings had to wage wars, build castles, lead armies. I have to pay rent. Kings had to fear assassins and usurpers. I'm one of millions. Kings had little defense against diseases. I have modern medicine. So, no, I don't live like a king - I live better. 14 February 2022
