Several years ago, I was at Davos for the first time. I remember it being a whirlwind of egos, and just a horribly overpriced town with a lot of arrogant, judgmental jerks.

I also had a great time meeting some brilliant policymakers and corporate giants, and surprisingly, the self-effacing wives of the Davos elites seemed to be a stark (and interesting) contrast.

I haven't attended Davos since, but every year, I am curious to see what the media has to say on the subject. So, with that, what are your thoughts on Davos?

Is it economic leadership? Or is it a meeting place for the elites? Is it a bit of both? Discuss.
