[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP. You’re getting a lot of grief for living in such a large house...and here’s one more.

I’m spatially challenged and had NO idea how big 15K sq ft was until I looked it up. That’s just...insane.

We would not be friends because:
-I’d wonder how much $$$ you’re giving to charity instead of your mortgage and housekeeper
-why such a big house? What are you compensating for?
-I’d think it’s a huge waste of money and couldn’t get past that. I wouldn’t be jealous, I am more jealous of people who can travel or have multiple homes.

I'm not OP but this is so weird to me.  So let's say OP's house cost $7 million.  And let's also say that they give $20 million annually to charities.  Does that make you like her now?  I find it so odd that people care what others do with their money.  I find it hard to believe, like some PP posted, that OP is choosing to spend all her money on her house.  Generally, people with houses that large have more than enough money so it's not like their sole expense is their mortgage (or even mortgage and housekeeper).  Also, PP, exactly what percentage of your income do you give to charity?  And is that a question that you ask all potential friends?  [/quote]
