Nowadays, the work of the Bogretsky is gaining new scale and meaning. Previously, it was mostly a profession that was associated with aristocrats and monarchs, but now the butterflies work for technical guru, new billionaires and oligarchs, in particular in countries such as China, India and the Middle East. These professionals not only serve the rich, but also have attractive salaries, luxurious gifts and the opportunity to live in luxurious estates.
In the Netherlands, at the International Academy of the Butterflies, hundreds of people are trained to become part of the modern elite. The average training course at the Academy lasts eight weeks and costs 12 750 euros. During this time, students acquire skills that allow them to become real experts in the service of high -speed customers. Examples of courses include topics as "the art of covering a bed", "how to cope with a greedy guest" and even "how to understand and prevent food poisoning". Studying in such academies allows students to receive considerable salaries: from 40,000 to 75,000 euros a year, and sometimes more than 100,000 euros. For comparison, the average teacher's average wage in the UK is only about 31,000 pounds.
The work of the Bogretsky in the modern world is significantly different from the classical ideas. Modern butterflies have not only traditional skills, such as table setting, handling tableware and a suitcase, but also knowledge in the field of etiquette, cybersecurity and ensuring the privacy of employers. They also learn the art of communicating with rich and influential people, helping their employers expand the range of dating and find access to higher society. Such skills require not only highly qualified but also mandatory flexibility in behavior, because to serve rich and well -known customers is not just to obey their orders, but also to adjust to their lifestyle.
The modern butterfish receives large rewards not only in the form of cash payments, but also gifts, which often include expensive cars, gorgeous watches and even real estate. Some butterflies tell about their work as a real way to financial independence, comparing it with a career in a high-quality show business. Thus, one of the former butterflies, working on an Indian businessman, earned up to £ 100,000 a year, and his duties were even included in the use of an army helicopter to find a missing dog family. The work of the Bogretsky is not limited to service. It is also an opportunity to travel, to participate in expensive dinners and to use privileges that are only accessible to wealthy people. Demand for high -class butterflies has increased sharply with the arrival of new billionaires, including those who have gained their wealth thanks to technology. In countries where traditional aristocracy is no longer widespread, the elite desire to look like classic rich, and therefore the role of the butterflies becomes important.
At the same time, higher requirements for workers mean that even future butterflies should have not only experience, but also international etiquette, experience of serving different types of guests and the ability to work in stressful conditions. And although the lives of the butterflies are not cloudless, many of them consider their profession one of the best in the world.
