You see this in Vancouver, Canada.
TONS and TONS of money Canadian and international, average detached house is ~$2million USD, more Lamborghinis, Mercedes (there are 4 Mercedes dealerships in this very small city), McLarens, Range Rovers, Volvos, Audis, BMW's, Maseratis, Ferraris per capita than anywhere on the planet - there's even a Pagani store (those cars cost $1.5 million USD)...

...and yet, there's very, very little in terms of civic patronage.
You'd expect to see concert halls and art and history museums and public sculpture and various civic masterpieces and charities throughout the city, supported by the wealthy citizens, but there is next to nothing.
It's all self-concerned money with no sense of civic responsibility.
