Season 1
Rich Kids is a South African docu-reality television series created by Something's Cool which follows young, privileged South Africans and provides an intimate look at how the young and super-wealthy spend their money – and their time.
If you've ever wondered what it's like to be a member of South Africa's young and privileged, you'll find out on the Vuzu Amp original series Rich Kids.
The series follows well-heeled teens and twenty-somethings who are unashamed mavens of the good life, including Bob and Don. The Tshwane-based brothers are polar opposites, but if there's one thing they have in common, it's their love for all the extravagant things that money can buy.
Bob is a calm and friendly young man – but also with a vain streak and a wallet-draining passion for fashion and designer brands. Don is rebellious and endowed with a streak of confidence that can quickly turn into arrogance. Don is also mad about expensive sports cars.
Rich Kids aims to provide an intimate look at how young and super-wealthy spend their money – and their time. Expect partying, Instagramming, champagne, dancing, posing and even more "throw it in the bag" shopping as the camera follows the likes of Bob and Don through clubs and shopping malls, and into car showrooms and expensive restaurants.
Over and above the spending habits, Rich Kids also shows another side to the lives of the privileged: their relationships with those close to them - friends and family members – and even new people in their lives.
Viewers will have a front row intimate understanding of the challenges that even the wealthy face. As Notorious B.I.G once said: Mo Money, Mo Problems!
Rich Kids is executive produced by Dale Herbst and J'Something. The series producer is Rebecca Christensen and the series director is Wolfgang Muller. Produced by Something's Cool, the series is a Vuzu Amp original production.
