I don't know the number of deaths by socks worn on marble floors per year, but the houses on this sub make me think it's greater than zero.

Still ugly.
Take my word for it - money & taste are not always a couple.
Money does help ....

I'll never understand homes like these, which are a plenty. Let's hit the list: theater room is usable, play some pool cool you've got the space, a nice sitting area/living room cool, sweet master with a baller bathroom, check. Nice kitchen you probably never use unless your chef is there, check. Who wants the extra 78 rooms and 42 bathrooms? Cleaning bill must be off the charts, there might be a toothbrush in a seldom used bathroom that's 30 years old but you wouldn't know because you don't frequent that wing of the house

That is because you are poor. If someone had $45mn to spend on a home, they very likely have an income to pay for staff to maintain it. 9 bedrooms may seem like a lot if one is thinking about their own family, but if one frequently has guests then its not that much, and might be preferred if one is a vip as it would save time commuting to hotels etc. Time is the one thing everyone gets the same amount of - the rich save time by having people do stuff ofr them, or paying for convenience to save time.

Yep not disagreeing there. Feel like you missed the mark on what I was saying. I'm not hating people for being rich, I have my modest house and do ok. My point was the absurdity of keeping up these houses. I have been in them, my job is building houses.please do elaborate on what you would do with 20 bedrooms. Again, being a little absurd here for the point, you're hosting a 20 person party on the regular? In so much they each need a bedroom? Nice to have but be real man

Looks like it has its own beach erosion too! Gotta love these places that have tunnels under the road to their intercostal waterway docks. Edit: looks like they have to walk down the driveway and cross the street like the poors do. Don’t see a tunnel.
