Obama Blasts Buying Big Houses, Then Gets A Mansion for $14.8 Million.
Just last year former President Barack Obama made a speech in South Africa where he criticized wealth inequality, stating: “There’s only so much you can eat. There’s only so big a house you can have. There’s only so many nice trips you can take. I mean, it’s enough.”
Then he bought a $14.8m beachfront house.
The Obama family is dropping nearly $15m on the 7,000-square foot, 29-acre house in Martha’s Vineyard.
It has seven bedrooms, eight and a half baths, a chef’s kitchen, master bedroom with a private deck, a pool – the house has everything.
Maybe the house needed to be 8,000-square-foot to qualify for Obama’s definition of “enough”.
