January 25th, 2013Top Story The 10 Most Absurd Quotes from a Story about Rich New Yorkers Whose Homes Are 'Too Big', In Ascending Order of Rage-Inducement By Caity Weaver Recently, the New York Observer uncovered a new problem plaguing rich people: their giant homes are simply too big. Lord, hear their prayer: "We have a living room and two guest bedrooms that we never use." "Especially as people get older, they tend to just use the first three floors." "The kids go to boarding school, and the parents end up living in the kitchen, the dining room and the den." "We have a client in Carroll Gardens who is very concerned with how many footsteps it will take to go from the garden to the top level." He laughed, admitting that his 4,500-square foot house was, in fact, a little large for his family of four. "I realized I hadn't been up to my library in six months." "My wife pointed out that neither of us had been to the parlor in the last three [months]." "I haven't been [to that floor of my house] in a couple of years." "Prized possessions, like a beloved boat sculpture, were stranded in neglected corners." "And the only person who goes to the sixth floor is the maid." Rich people: they're just like us. (They're drunk all the time and they say crazy things.) [NY Observer // Image via Shutterstock]
