Look on the bright side... $5 mil doesn't buy much in Newport Beach.
The Crouches have lived in Newport Beach for some time now, as I have seen him driving around town from time to time, and once I found him in the liquor isle of the Gelson's Supermarket picking out a wine selection.
People may not be aware, but the Crouches and the Bakers used to work together quite a few years ago. They had a falling out and went separate ways, after which the Bakers built their South Carolina resort.
The TBN "facility", for lack of a better word, is in nearby Costa Mesa. It is a garish white building in Greek/Roman style, visible from the 405 freeway. Any locals you ask will speak of the facility with derision. It is covered with while light bulbs which burn every night. One Christmas they installed a large Happy Birthday Jesus sign on the top of the building. They never took it down. Guess they celebrate Christmas 365 days a year.
Sorry if I sound nasty, but it bugs me to see these people always soliciting money and living the lifestyle they lead. I encourage every one to live well, but not off the contributions of others.
