Welcome to the world of Zimbabwe's wealthy young elite, where silver plated Rolls-Royces and private jets lined in gold are just the norm - and showing off your tens of millions are essential social media viewing.

Even though the country is ranked one of the poorest on the planet, these politicians' off-springs and young entrepreneurs prove that there is still plenty of money floating around the country.

There are the sisters dubbed the 'Zimbabwean Kardashians' - flaunting their wealth around in the poverty-stricken nation, as well as Church preachers, or 'prophets' as they like to call themselves, showing off fancy cars and bundles of fifty dollar bills.
