Opulence and Chaos

Here is another awesome article on Lagos from my buddy Will:

Lagos was an incredibly expensive place to live in, and I got the opportunity to experience both sides of the city.  I lived next to people who made less than $300/month but yet got invited to extravagant parties and clubs parties where the Champaign and Hennessy flowed freely.

It is confusing to live in a city where such wealth operates side by side with people living in abject poverty, and the club scene Will describes in the article illustrates this nicely.
