With Hillary! boldly speaking for the Common Man (and Woman), and Chelsea having posed for a magazine cover dressed in considerably more than my gross income for a good year....
Seems Chelsea is living in a humble apartment. Er, a $10.5 million apartment. Across the street from her husband's $4 million pad.
Of course, they're stuck living in a horrible big city. What would that kind of money get you in a decent place to live?
I do a quick on-line search: between $4 million and $10.5 million, at least 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and within 20 miles of Nashville (which, based on my research and last summer's trip, seems very much like a place I want to live - not actually in the metro area, but within social distance of it).
I find 19 properties listed. Around $4.25 million, there's a choice between a good-sized mansion (11,000 to 17,000 square feet) on single-digit (4 to 7) acreage, and a more sensible-sized house (a bit under 5,000 square feet, but mighty fancy) on just under 158 acres. And that's the low end, like what the Princess's commoner mate spent on his place, back when it was just him.
But, yeah, the Clintons are just like you and me. Just struggling to scrape by in the cruel world.
I mean, at some time in her life, Hillary! has probably even spoken to someone who's had to earn a living at an actual job. Maybe all she said was, "I'll have the chicken burrito bowl," but she spoke to him. He should consider himself blessed.
