I’ve always wondered what the hell these people do with all that space. I live in a 700sqft apartment and even that feels excessive (albeit living alone). If I had unlimited money and owned that mansion, I’d run out of ideas before making use of even 25% of the building.
My guess is that 95% of the reason they have it is just to impress their other rich friends
I dont think I could live like these people even if I had the money; I feel like I hate the idea of having people whos relationship is purely professional going around in my space to clean things, but trying to clean all that space by oneself without hiring people to help sounds like a lot of bother.
You’d probably have them only stop by when you’re out, and you’d be out of the house most of the day anyway. You’d just be alone. But imagine there always being snacks and drinks, and you can eat any food just by ordering it, and being able to invite people over whenever you want without worrying about them making a mess. It’d be a fine situation even for introverts.
Think of it as you have the resources to create jobs for those with less. Pay well and treat people with dignity, and you’ll sleep well at night.
He could be growing so much wee — plants with all that natural lighting.
You can say it. It’s perfectly legal in California.
He could be growing so much weebs.
I went on one of those hollywood tour of homes 1.5 years ago. We pulled up to this same house and the tour guide says Justin Bieber had just moved out after renting it for a while for $200k a month. So now you know that.
I’ll never understand having a house that big. Guess I’m too poor or something, but seems like it would just be a pain in the ass.
It is a pain in the ass. It’s about being able to pay to solve a problem you didn’t have before, but created for yourself by spending more money than you ever had to in the first place. “I’m so rich, I pay more than you make your entire life, in order to have a house so ridiculously big, that I have to pay even more money on a monthly basis, in order to even keep this shit running”. That’s really what it is.
I mean, I know well-off people that have indoor gyms, spas and recording studios in their home. Or big play rooms for the kids that’s literally just a huge room full of toys. So to an extent, I get what having extra space can mean. But then you realize that those houses are tiny specks of dust compared to the gargantuan Hollywood monstrosities.
I mean, we are elbow deep in homeless people, and regular folks struggling to pay rent, so I’m really not sure why everyone thinks Johnny Silvertongue needs 82 bathrooms for his family of 3, even if he did star in a recent blockbuster. Maybe some of that real estate should be redistributed.
(In the US) Remember to take your early, more “generic” courses at community colleges rather than private if you can. They’re cheaper and a lot of the time better at teaching those courses.
Just make sure that whatever college you want to transfer to later actually accepts those credits.
Also, I would like to add, as an incoming transfer from community college to a 4 year university, the community colleges have some of the best programs ever, like financial assistant for incoming transfers, job fairs, cool clubs, STEM degree programs, engineering programs. Make sure to be a part of all the programs you can, you may be able to get free textbooks and tuition based on going to high school in that area or financial information. So you don’t even have to use FAFSA. Also, the classes are a fraction of the price too. The 2 years I’ve spent at a community college, I gained money because they even offered money for every unit we took. So not only did I not have to pay for my education, they gave me money for going to school.
Choosing to go to community college my first 2 years instead of a low ranking local 4 year was a good decision for me, financially and it developed me a lot too because I was able to meet many like minded people in those STEM programs (shoutout MESA) and even hung out with comp sci professors and math professors who are very chill and helped me out a lot.
Whoever ends up living here should probably not throw any stones.
