Is A 398,264.69 Square Foot House Big Enough For You Or A Bit Much?

It’s bigger the the French Palace at Versailles. (Versailles is pictured at the left.)

Its price tag – One billion dollars (American).

Location – Mumbai

Owner – The Richest Man in India – Mukesh Ambani.

Named Anitlla, the entire structure is 27 stories high, although to be fair the first 6 floors are a 160-car garage.

From CBS Moneywatch –

The amenities are as extravagant as they are endless, but what would you expect from the fourth richest human on the planet? The most expensive house in the world has:

* Private gym
* Ballroom
* 50-seat movie theater
* Health spa
* Several swimming pools
* 3 helicopter pads

The house, well, building, also features small trees in the residence in an elevated garden with high ceilings.

Why?

I just don’t get it. (There’s room for 600 servants.) I don’t think I am ever going to get it.

Don’t be mistaken I don’t believe that he should give it all to charity, but isn’t there a point at which diminishing returns kicks in? I mean after the first 100,000 square feet, wasn’t there a pause? And then didn’t someone think at least in the back of their mind, “This is crazy?!”

Well, probably not. But I still don’t understand.
