Chicago has some very wealthy areas—but even years ago I remember visiting relatives in one of those areas and thinking “this is not going to go well, you need to get out of this city”.

Some folks just have no early warning detectors.

—”It better be made of gold and have its own harem.”

No mention of amenities provided.
Harems are old school and his gold is deep in a vault.

“According to local media reports, Griffin bought the top four floors of a new condo tower on the Gold Coast for $58.5 million. And he’s buying raw space. So he will spend millions more to turn the space into a home.

The space will total more than 25,000 square feet.”
