What's the word for someone that believes he deserves everything he wants?

I'm thinking "spoiled" or "entitled", but I'm sure there's a more accurate word out there.

EDIT:

"what do I have against entitled?" I'm thinking about it, and it is actually a perfect word, but I realized I'm not looking for an adjective but a noun. As in:

"I'm tired of the ***something-ness of these people", which I know can be rephrased as "I'm tired of these entitled people", but I wanted some variety…
"sense of entitlement", maybe? but in just one word… I feel there should be a word for it, (just "entitlement", then?) or maybe I'm being too pushy.

There are a few that could be just shy of the exact meaning, and if you're open to combinations, you could have more options

egocentric: This is more like someone who is concerned with getting only what he wants, without regard for anyone else.

poise: If she is confident she deserves everything she wants, then she could be said to have a certain poise (there are several words that could work here: stately, reclined, unconcerned).

airy: You could use this for tone to depict the he does not worry because he knows he deserves everything.
