World's Most Expensive Homes (Sigh - I Wish)

In this picture: Lake Tahoe, Nevada. $100 million: This 210-acre
property main house has 20,000 square feet of living space and a 3,500-
bottle wine cellar. An indoor swimming pool and atrium, as well as a 19-seat
movie theatre


Forbes has released this year's list of the Top-10 most expensive homes in the world (based on their criteria).

Property investment experts around the globe are saying that it's going to be very ugly in 2009, and sellers of the world's highest-priced properties will not be immune.

In May this year, Donald Trump's sold his "Maison de L'Amitie" in Palm Beach Florida, to Russian oligarch Dmitry Rybolovlev for a cool $100 million. Not a bad profit for Mr Trump, given that he bought the home just four years ago for $41.4 million.

I don't admire expensive homes in western countries, they are usually ulu as hell and inaccessible to a point of being ridiculous, what the hell would I need 210 acres for when you even need to drive out just to reach the main gate of the property, and even then still in no man's land with no shops and neighbours for miles.......you call that living? I call that isolation, like living in solitary confinement or self imposed exile.
