“Those kind of houses consume vast amount of resources, even when he is not there.”

They have climate control and A/C running all year round/ The outside turf and landscaping is watered all year round consuming water and electricity. Even in a dry place like Las Vegas

To be a little fair....My opinion is these houses are investments more than places to live even ten days a years

A book on Striesand about 10 years ago revealed her water bill is close to $2,000.00 a month.

Even when they remodel an old, more modest house, we are often required to run over size water pipes to supply their rainforest type shower heads that cost thousands of dollars and showers with 8 shower heads from all angles, and such.

The gas meters are the ones we use for bakeries, the water meters are the ones used for apartment complexes.
