Dream house or eye sore?

A friend sent this this morning. Guy is building a house with 26 bathrooms!! Yikes!

You have to watch a short ad first. . .

Definitely a dream home, but honestly...
Who needs 26 bathrooms? Could you imagine having to clean that!

Hah, I'm thinking this fellow doesn't worry about cleaning the 26 bathrooms. That's someone else's job.

Is it ironic that the proposed home resembles the White House?

What else to do with so much money, right? Seems like there'll be a lot of unused space.

I wouldn't mind having a billiard room!

Ha. I'm doing a semester long research project on the Suburbs...and this makes all those McMansions pale in comparison.

I didn't look, but seriously, doesn't he have anything better to spend that money on...? In reality, how many parties or guests' visits would you have to have to actually justify wasting that money, space, etc. ? I guess everyone's view of importance in money spending is different though, and it is his money. It just seems like a shame that there are so many arguments about how we are running out of land because os such and such reason (sometimes, it is the overpopulation theory; sometimes it is because of industry, etc.) But then you see this person building a house with 20+ bathrooms, and I think,"how many people actually live there? Maybe 4 at most plus some servants." Just doesn't seem logical to me that we have entire families of 2 or 3 generations living in small apartments, but then you see this. I can honestly say, even if I had the money, I can't imagine spending it on this. But, then again, maybe this person would think what I spend my money on is a waste too. : )
