9. Disgustingly poor taste

...I know billionaires who live pretty ordinary lives. Look at Warren Buffet too. Billionaire or not, no one except someone intent on compensating, would live like that. It doesn't show his wealth, just his ignorance and need to draw attention to his superficial success. What kind of little boy wears a suit or sits on stuffed lions among guilded columns and walls? What sort of parents, including Ms.DT (who wants to make her signature program children ), would raise a child like that, no matter how much money they have?
It looks very uncomfortable, like no one is intended to really sit in those chairs. I guess if you have a 2 minute attention span, it could work for a conversation.
