[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point is, the only people who pay $1M to live in a house like that in McLean/Potomac/Bethesda/Chevy Chase are only doing so for prestige. They’re more desperate to make sure people know they’re rich than they are about owning actual luxury homes. That’s why they’re paying exorbitant prices for middle-class homes constructed in the 1970s and trying to justify their lame decision to do so. [/quote] It's actually the opposite. Some people need to feel like to show off a massive, "luxury" home, to show they're rich, so they keep driving until they find one they can afford. The folks in the 1970s "shitshack" value proximity to the city, culture, and amenities over a large, showy house.[/quote]
