      Well that is how it is actually.It is called "Super Butler" because he basically commands a team consisting of normal Butlers (Alongside Chefs, Service Staff and so on).
      Basically he is an executive Butler.

      They are called footman and they do tend to have ranks first footman, second etc all depending of seniority, skills and how big the household is, all of them are at the command of the Butler who is the chief of all the servants staff.

    What many here don't understand is that it's not just serving tea. Butlers at the highest end are responsible for the entire house staff as well. They are, for all intents and purposes the CEO or the house or houses that may have staff numbers up to 100 people. Take for example someone with three homes; one in the city, one in the country and one at a favourite vacation spot..all have to be maintained, kept clean, secured and be ready for the family at moments notice. People who make shedloads of money are busy and don't have the time to deal with 'logistics' and what little time they do have they want to enjoy it. They are called golden handcuff's for a reason

      Crypto Mike Having worked with some members of staff within such households. I can assure you that the money is much more to do with the level of intimacy, trust and no secrecy, rather than excessive workload, that creates a bigger pay packet.

      Great eye to attention! I guess because men butlers back then had different tasks before WWII then the politics, men's and women's rights, and other global changes must have changed within the traditional butler and nannies training schools. If you look up The most expensive nannies in the world - Inside Norland College, you will see that they still train in the traditional way and modern way. I haven't found an accurate video on buttle training yet. But surely, their training methods must have changed. ☕

      ''a bit like servants''? They are servants, but what's wrong about this? Those people are highly educated (and/or well educated) plus have refined, specific, training. Pretty much they're the definition of luxury, which comes not cheap and not everyone can be that. You feel sorry because they serve breakfast? HAH. It's a great job.

    I once was told that the people who are "newly rich" are the ones paying the larger amounts. Old money doesn't like to pay for services like this a good example would be the british royal family. You make minimum wage working for them and if you live on the grounds in the servants quarter, you make even less because they deduct the living expenses from your pay before you get it. There's an entitlement to services like this.

    I would never be anyone’s servant. It disgusts me. Why would anyone want to do this besides the money?

    *Imagine the drama,* when you have too much stuff, that you need another person to service that stuff for you :-)
    Where is the joy in ownership, when you need another person to handle your stuff for you all the time ?
    It's like you become so rich, that your house needs a bus driver and a nanny, and a cleaning lady. Why not go minimalist instead and spend monis on experiences or ethical investments instead ?

      epSos.de because you wont earn shit if you keep spending on dumb experiences and why waste precious time when for some dollars you can have someone do it for you, which also gives the hired person a job and more time for you to work on your dreams and shit

      Because their stuff (properties, exotic cars, artworks) go up a lot in value every year. It's both an enjoyment and an investment for them. A few years ago you could buy a Ferrari 250 GTO for around £7mln, today it's worth at least £20mln. The staff cost is absolutely negligible in the grand scheme of things.

      They earn more doing whatever made them rich than cleaning or organising some of their life. More than enough to hire the staff required to do it.

      I agree with you, not everything is money. Money, after a certain point, doesn't equal happiness.
