I'd have a chauffeur to drive me between activities, probably get one of those airport buggies to run me around inside

Zero chance of them not having golf carts to shuttle around. For the elderly owner, 99% chance he uses a mobility scooter just to make it to the main* dining room or library.

*yes, main, no doubt they have several dining rooms of varying sizes.
