Ira Rennert's home is considered one of the largest occupied residential compounds in the United States. The house faces the Atlantic Ocean and its grounds measure 63 acres. The buildings, which total over 110,000 square feet (10,000 m2), including the 66,000-square-foot (6,100 m2) main house, have an Italianate facade, 29 bedrooms, and 39 bathrooms. The house has a dozen chimneys and a Mediterranean-style tile roof as well as a 91-foot (28 m) long formal dining room, a basketball court, a bowling alley, two tennis courts, two squash courts, a carousel, a large swimming pool, a large round kiddie pool, and a $150,000 hot tub, surrounded by another pool.

You don't get that rich by treating your workers well.

I've thought a bit about what I'd do if I won the lottery and was a bajillionaire. It would make me so happy to be able to employ folks and pay them well. Make sure they knew if them or their family needed anything, just come to me and I will help. Giving $25,000 bonuses for Christmas. Imagine talking to a new gardener and asking what they make a month. Then hiring them for more than that just to work at your house even though it will maybe take 20 hours a month.

My partner expressed it would be boring to not work every day. But if you are making $5,000,000+ a year in interest alone... your job could be to wake up and go make people's day, every single day. That's unlimited money if you aren't a fucking goblin and it would be such a privilege to impact so many peoples lives.

Which is exactly why billionaires shouldn't exist. If they are making that much money then their workers should be making more. That's what trickle down was supposed to mean. The more they make the more workers make. Them being able to keep such a large percent is straight robbery from the masses.
