Wasn't this the house owned by the douchebag director in Mulholland Drive?
No, but it does very vaguely remind me of the house in THE LIMEY.

#23Good for him. I also enjoy the fact that he's bought something which I can imagine would be relatively straightforward to recreate in the game which got him there. People saying it's a "tasteless piece of real estate" seem misguided. It's a lovely building, architecturally. I don't think the furnishings do it justice (it's all too plush and nouveau) but it's a really lovely design.

#28I know this is primarily a forum for American capitalists, but am I the only person here who would feel utterly ashamed of myself for spending 70 million dollars on a house? I'd feel outright embarrassed to admit it to any of my friends. The good you could do with that sort of money... And then to just blow it on a house.

No. If all were equal the top 0.1% would be doing exactly as well as everyone else.
Then how why would they be the "top" 0.1%? If everyone is equal, there is no "top".
s/equal/almost equal/. There still can be a top 0.1% even if they only make 101% of what the bottom 0.1% makes.

Start from:
If all were almost equal the top 0.1% would be doing more or less as well as everyone else.
Then take the limit for almost -> exactly
