“i never “got” the whole Marthas Vineyard/ Nantucket Island thing...the beaches are weedy and ugly, the water never really gets “warm”, always seems very windy. Nope, give me Tropical breezes and Palm Trees any day...”
BTTT
Id put a nice lil man cave down by the water
The feds should buy this property, build a minimum security prison, and house illegals there that judges say can’t be deported. Each day, let the prisoners go door to door offering to mow lawns, wash cars, etc. for the neighbors. WIN WIN.
He didn't have to come up with anything near $39 mil. He bought it, likely undervalued, at $8.5 mil in 2019. Suspicious deals like this are typical of how the Clintons, the Bidens and the Obamas have enriched themselves.
Pretty impressive considering these filthy grifter dogs were broke when they moved into the White Shack.
This was their free “rental” property they stayed at before they bought their multi million dollar estate there.
Yes, especially when they installed the 25000 gallon PROPANE tank.
Just to give people a little perspective on how big of a tank that really is I will list some numbers of typical tanks owned by customers.
A grill tank is a few gallons. It holds 20 pounds of propane.
A tank I used to own at my former house just to run a gas fireplace was 50 gallons.
My daughters house/furnace runs on propane. They also have a backup whole house generator used to power their walk in freezer for their home based business. They have an underground tank that is 650 gallons. It could power their generator for almost three weeks if it was full.
The hardware store where I get my 20# grill tank filled has a 2000 gallon tank. It is about 5’ in diameter and 15’ tall.
So, the Obama’s propane tank for their vacation summer home is 12.5 times the size of my hardware store. 38X the size of my daughters.
Now, the Obama’s house is about 3X the size of my daughters house. Plus they have a guest house where the SS and help probably lives. Which they probably RENT to the SS.
Plus they most likely have a big back up generator. However, what probably really eats up that propane is HEATING the swimming pool. Keeping a pool at 85 degrees burns a lot of gas. The Mooch likes to swim in warm water.
Yes, the book deal bought the MV house, the Oahu house. and the house in Georgetown, DC.
Plus the Netflix deal. Plus Barack gets $400K every time he gives a speech somewhere.
I would not be surprised if the Obama’s are not charging rent at their various guest houses to the Secret Service.
This is what the Clintons did when they first bought the house in Chappaqua, NY (Westchester County). So that Hillary could run for NYS US Senate. They charged rent to the SS that covered their mortgage on the house.
Why did people go to Atlantic City? You could take the train from Philly and NYC.
In the 1800s people used to take the train up to the mountains of NH because it was cooler. Keep in mind this was before we all had AIR CONDITIONING. There was a Grand Hotel in the town I live in southern NH. They would take the train up from Boston and then a stage coach for the last five miles.
MV was also a summer camp location for the Methodist church.
Oak Bluffs was the center of the tent revivals. The Methodists that came were mostly Blacks. Many of them were the hired help of the rich people that had houses to the south in Edgarton.
Nantucket was the whaling capital of the world.
It wasn't until the 1970s when it became the escape for the NYC Wall Street crowd. Now there are more billionaires and hedge fund guys on Nantucket than you can count.
It has gotten ridiculously expensive during the summer. $700-1400+/night just for a hotel room in August.
He was a CROOK; that’s most likely HOW he managed it.
Amity Island is nice this time of year.
OBAMA GOT MORTGAGE APPLICATION ADVICE FROM LETITIA JAMES ???
THE CLINTONS BOUGHT THE HOUSE “NEXT DOOR” IN CHAPPAQUIDICK.
THAT IS WHERE THE SECRET SERVICE RESIDES.
CLINTONS WERE CHARGING $10,000 a MONTH RENT.
PROBABLY MORE NOW.
Chappaqua, NY. A suburb in Westchester County about an hour north of NYC.
Chappaquiddick is the island on the east side of Martha’s Vineyard where Teddy drove off the bridge and Mary Jo drowned in the Oldsmobile.
That is the island in “Jaws” where Chief Brody and the Mayor take the ferry across the harbor from Edgartown, Amity Island.
“farewell and ado, to you fair Spanish ladies...farewell and ado”....
Imagine the fumigation expense to rid the building of the Obama stench.
How many exorcisms would need to be performed to cleanse the property of Satan and his demons???
Too many bad memories of murdering the chef?
Big Mike will bitch about racism if it sells for a penny less than $39 mil.
Oh, noes, the seas are rising. !!!
Norman Foster is an English structural engineer, not an architect.
And it is SIR Norman...
