Could you live in a house like this? (It's for sale.)

1. I would have to have about 500 maids or something.

I can't hardly keep my little ole house clean.

2. That's more like a hotel.

Or an apartment complex.

I'd want a whole lot of other people living there too, if I had to live there.

4. Looks like a hospital to me.

And there's only one pool. I'd have to have another pool. (Maybe there's one in the basement.

[redqueen]

7. Yeah, it does.

An indoor pool would be sweet... especially if it had a current channel and a a vortex and a slide.

3. No thanks.

I bet there are rooms people wouldn't use or even walk into all year in a house that size.

5. Awful. Tacky. I could buy a real castle for far less

This one in France is currently going for a very cheap $9 Mil

6. I'd have to build out the front so it looks like a Klingon warship

[Shell Beau]

9. OMG it does look like that.

[AlCzervik]

8. it looks like a retirement home for the wealthy.

or maybe an insane asylum for the wealthy.

Anyhow the utilities bills for that place would be more than we make in a year.

10. The houses that really appeal to me are well-kept small, older homes.

There is one in my neighborhood that is just adorable. A simple little 1920s blue bungalow with a great big front porch and a simple yard of grass and trees with a few flowers.

11. What, you expect me to downsize?

I think not.

[flvegan]

12. I see there's only a 3-car garage.

If I've got $150 million for a residence, I'm going to need a parking garage for my exotica.

13. I could, but I wouldn't want to.

The first photo in this thread made me smile:

14. I would get lost

trying to find the bathroom

[BurtWorm]

15. You could go to the bathroom in any room you wanted

and probably never find that room again.
