“Come now, it’s not like that $7.1mm was earned through honest means.”

LMFAO

Rob, it’s all legit (to the best of my knowledge). I just don’t want to list businesses on here.
Let me put it this way…you’ll be shocked how much money can be made on tube socks (in very very large quantities). :o)

Not sure I want to broadcast it on a blog.
i think that is what makes people wonder… but yes, i am very very curious.

I wonder what the ‘declared’ income is vs. the real income for person buying the $7m home
That’s true Rob. Loads of very smart businessmen there. I’ll tell you in private what some of those guys do for money (all legit too). Not sure I want to broadcast it on a blog.
They also charge those prices at Something Else because they get away with it. Hey, why not? They still manage to be cheaper than Bloomingdales or Barneys so they have a flow of costumers willing to spend money.
They’ll probably keep the house, Rob. I am sure it has top notch remodeling inside and plenty of room but they might knock it down and build some monstrocity, as they tend to do in that area. It is all about status and showing who has what. Very popular in that community. Most 16 year olds get porsches/bmw/benzs for their bdays, even before getting a license.
