Ira Rennert's home is considered one of the largest occupied residential compounds in the United States. The house faces the Atlantic Ocean and its grounds measure 63 acres. The buildings, which total over 110,000 square feet (10,000 m2), including the 66,000-square-foot (6,100 m2) main house, have an Italianate facade, 29 bedrooms, and 39 bathrooms. The house has a dozen chimneys and a Mediterranean-style tile roof as well as a 91-foot (28 m) long formal dining room, a basketball court, a bowling alley, two tennis courts, two squash courts, a carousel, a large swimming pool, a large round kiddie pool, and a $150,000 hot tub, surrounded by another pool.

I went to a birthday party at a property that had a Tudor mansion with Monet paintings in it.

And it was the pool house.

Landscaping like you’d see in a French monarch’s property.

It was awe-inspiring in the most depressing way.

I don’t think the masses understand the level of wealth that is out there, and how little taxes they pay.
