I do occasionally browse Forbes.com. They have interesting things to read about. For example like the benefit of coffee ( I like this one because I love coffee), the richest men in the world, and today I just read about America’s most expensive homes. Pictures are from Forbes.com. Here they are, from the most expensive to less expensive.

So this is where the rich live. I like number six and seven. People would be lucky to be able to build a house even a quarter of the price of these houses. There are more people struggling paying up mortgages and buying mortgage protection insurance, than those who can build big homes like these for cash. Sure thing, there are less people “up there” and it is rather crowded “down here.”
