Thats honestly extremely over priced, that isn't worth more then 3 mill max. So who ever buys that is making the realtor about $26 mill. Just to give you an idea of how over priced that is, that house isn't even a quarter of bill gate's house, and bill gate's house is worth $50 million. Just with $1,000,000 id have a house like that on the beach here in miami's star island. With a huge dock.
I think with $26,000,000.00 id..
Build my own artificial island with a mountain, id put a HUGE mansion on it with a huge mansion as a guest house in the back, id have the world's biggest pool, and id have a huge dock filled with boats and yachts, Then id have a huge like golden gate style bridge just to take me to my other artificial island which contains a HUGE climate controled garage which would have marble floors with those rotating floors and its own service shop and employees running it, With a collection of about 100 cars, and then with id probably build my own race track around it. And even after doing all this id still have about 5 million left over. And probably with that money id just open the worst largest Mortgage company...

location location location! That's all this is.....you'd have to go see laguna beach to understand the kind of money that's floating around there and how perfect of a location it is....hell yes it's over priced, but beach front property on the pacific ocean is not cheap.....but 26 million is extreme though

sorry to say, 26 million wouldnt buy you all of that. and you wouldnt find a house that size on star island for $1mil. also, if that house is worth $3mil like you say, then they're not making the realtor $26 million... it doesnt work that way. the realtor takes a commission, not the profit. i dont think you have any concept of money. $26 million isnt as much as you make it seem.

depends on the location. you're not paying for that house, you're paying for the location it's at. that house by itself is probably worth around half a million.

So now you have 14,000 grams which cost you $3.50. And at 50 a G your looking at 14x profit. And that is only for one kilo.

Actually, I use to think the same thing, but my fiance's grandfather is all crazy into the lottery, and he has developed a really crazy system which i think is probably illegal, but he wins the Pick 3 atleast 1-2 times a week. Hes a a retired mathematics teacher, and what he does is go to the local lottery website, and print out all the numbers of the current month, and i guess he narrows down and avg's all the numbers to see which numbers have the highest chances to be picked next. But everytime he plays the lotto, if he dosn't win it, hes always extremely close. Now he just makes all his income through the lotto.
