...I'm obviously not in my comfort zone in this thread.

If you'd say something like that here, you'd get knocked the fuck out.

If i had 15.000.000 $ and wanted a new ski home I would much rather build one by myself and design it the way I want it to be. Anyway it looks pretty dope ( but I don't believe someone will pay that much as to the same reason I already mentioned)

My dads business partner did the same thing he built a ten million dollar house in novascotia when the Canadian dallor was weak and just sold it and made a killing. They are a little big to manage with out staff if it's your family but for parties after the Marblehead to hailifax race they are sick

It's a house designed with the coda "a place where you can lay your head down and relish the fact that your life is better than just about anybody elses" so it could be anywhere from 1-99 people for all I care, it's still excessive.

But if someone's into that, by all means.

These two paintings are worth roughly 200k together.
They are waiting in the junkroom to be hanged on the wall tommorow.
(they are by Cornelis Springer, pretty cheap because they are both damaged.)

My dad owns alot of places since he is a lawyer for real estate guys, he always gets deals.
Otherwise he wouldn't have got that place in monaco or moscow.

Ya cause everyone here knows the value of art. Such a weak attempt. Those could be worth $4 at a garage sale.

Haha no?!? That would be weird... We just randomly go to them (well, my family does... I only really go to the Northern Wisco place in the summer). They're not like timeshares or anything, they're ours...

hahahaha, "your" money? your post shows that you're a spoiled girl with no understanding of the value of a dollar or a home. i bet you just looked online until you found a place that looked "cute" and said, "daddy, daddy, can i have this one!?"

im in.

remember the cost of appliances and taxes and such though, we should probably get a few more people in on this to fund things like that.

I don't know why everyone thinks a 4800 sq ft house is huge. My house is 3500 sq ft and lived in by 4 people, 4800 really isn't a huge deal for a "high class" vacation home, especially in Whistler.
