It is a pain in the ass. It's about being able to pay to solve a problem you didn't have before, but created for yourself by spending more money than you ever had to in the first place. "I'm so rich, I pay more than you make your entire life, in order to have a house so ridiculously big, that I have to pay even more money on a monthly basis, in order to even keep this shit running". That's really what it is.

I mean, I know well-off people that have indoor gyms, spas and recording studios in their home. Or big play rooms for the kids that's literally just a huge room full of toys. So to an extent, I get what having extra space can mean. But then you realize that those houses are tiny specks of dust compared to the gargantuan Hollywood monstrosities.

I mean, we are elbow deep in homeless people, and regular folks struggling to pay rent, so I'm really not sure why everyone thinks Johnny Silvertongue needs 82 bathrooms for his family of 3, even if he did star in a recent blockbuster. Maybe some of that real estate should be redistributed.
