On the Upper Queens region, there was a collection of towns and cities that were all controlled by the Upper Echelon companies and the Conglomerate subcompanies.
Suffice it to say, this kind of society was the very top of the top. The elites of the elites. They were the main target market for the Conglomerates, as their purchasing power was a hundred times more powerful than the normal citizen.
For example, the minimum wage for people in these kinds of cities were ranging in fifty thousand Sand Dollars a single month!
This was an absurd amount of money. They were basically the first-world country equivalent to this world. Perhaps, even more powerful than the most powerful country back in Michael's world.
So, these people were accustomed to paying a lot of money in order to have their quality of living be the best it could be. Luxurious would be an understatement. These people would use gold as a way to wipe their own butts after using the toilet.
