@MountainMan Don't the residents get kickbacks from the oil money?

No idea.

wiki: the Saudi economy has been described as

a bewildering (at least to outsiders) combination of a feudal fealty system and a more modern political patronage one. At every level in every sphere of activity, Saudis maneuver through life manipulating individual privileges, favors, obligations, and connections. By the same token, the government bureaucracy is a maze of overlapping or conflicting power center under the patronage of various royal princes with their own priorities and agendas to pursue and dependents to satisfy.

Most workers in saudi arnt saudis. They import most their workers or 'serfs'. Making actual saudis more a nobility class

Kuwaiit is similar. Most actual workers arnt kuwaiti they are imported 'help'
