That’s a lot of money to buy a bunch of air and wood.
Don’t mind the land, however.
I have my dream home sketched on a piece of paper. It’s about 3000 sq feet and every room has a purpose. There is no fancy amenities to my dream home.
I really don’t get the desire for 10,0000 sqft homes, though I don’t care if somebody wants one. I just don’t get it.
Enjoy your silver, Judas…
If Pence worked for BLM, he could have gotten a bigger house.
Treason pays well apparently.
2 people, 7 1/2 bathrooms.....now we all know what he is full of.....
How does a person who has spent all but five years of his working career as a professional politician living off the public dole acquire enough wealth to purchase, furnish, and maintain a $1,93 house (10,000+ sf on five acres). Pence’s wife was a school teacher and neither Pence nor his wife came from wealthy families.
Yes.
Yes.
“...he offered more than the asking price,”
Hey, why not? It’s play money to him. He didn’t have to budget, or scrimp and save.
Carmel is a nice upper middle class suburb on the north side of Indianapolis. Carmel High school has become a dominant athletic program in the state, largely because they have an enrollment of over 5000 students and haven’t split into two high schools as the city has grown.
The “pinnacle of luxury” in the Indianapolis area is probably Zionsville or Fishers. The pinnacle of luxury in Indiana is probably the northern Indiana lake where Pence’s brother has a home.
The press wants to make this sound extravagant but it doesn’t sound all that extravagant to me, given that he has to have a fair amount of land to avoid the harassment and Rand Paul-type attacks which will be encouraged by the left and the media for the rest of his life.
While $1.9M seems like a lot, we should keep the perspective that Obama, who has a much briefer history of productive private sector work than Pence, purchased an $8M mansion in DC and an $12M house on Martha’s Vineyard after leaving office.
Yeah and he got $2M worth of house that would cost you $6M just 180 miles away. And that's without the 5 acres, jammed somewhere up in Lincoln Park, hoping that the ferals don't cross North Avenue, oh wait they did.
LOFL.
You can buy a lot with 30 pieces of silver now days…
Judas got his silver.
I hope he stays there, keeps his trap shut and rots.
Giverment “service” been very very good to him and all others crooked enough to reap the benefits thereof.
"Public Servant," my @$$.

Used some of that payoff money from certifying the election.
That’s not much for a house anymore. Where I grew up, a lumber town, a small house could be had for 40k. Now, the average in that city is 600k.
