They are using an artist's rendition for the building entrance, does that mean in reality you have to push your way through hookers and crack addicts?

Maybe, but it's 5th Avenue, so they'll be high-class, expensive hookers.

Yes, we can read. It was 80M when there was a skyline.

That's the most useless waste of money on real estate I've ever seen. You can buy your own 30 acre island off the coast of Italy with a villa twice the sqare footage for a fraction of that price.

I'd much rather have this, thanks.

Holy crap.  If you do a search on that site by price, some of those islands are actually affordable by mortal men.  There are islands in the Phillipines that can be bought for the price of a new car.  And islands off the coast of Canada that can be bought for the price of a really nice new car.

Wow.

If it hadn't already been sold I'd seriously consider buying that thing.  It sounds gorgeous and it's actually affordable.  Sure it'd sabotage my plans for buying a house, but I'd get to own an ISLAND.  With MONKEYS!

No power, no water, no sewage, no telephone, no medical care and pirates.  Where do I sign up for this wonderful deal?

That's pretty awesome.  I'd rather have the best penthouse in NYC than a nice island somewhere, because it's in NYC and not the middle of goddamn nowhere.  Of course, better still would be a $35M penthouse in NYC and a $35M island retreat.  Come on Powerball!

If I had that sort of money, I would not waste it on an apartment.  The island is tempting, but I need DSL.  And, oh, medical services are kinda nice.  I think I would buy more land around my current house so as to prevent further incursion by developers.  Maybe a nice wall next to the highway, too.  Barbed wire.  Armory.  Bomb shelter.  Maybe even a pool for my family.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

I's rather have enough money to move NYC to an island retreat. You'd all be welcome to visit me in my plush Hudson Valley home.

This type of apartment is absolutely not bought, it is inherited.

There's no amount of money that could get me living in NYC. London, Rome, Paris, Tokyo, Berlin, San Francisco - sure. NYC? Not a fucking chance. NYC smells like death to me.

I don't think the stench would manage to get up to that altitude.  And it's not like you'd ever have to leave.

If you're not intending to leave you might as well build yourself a mansion in some appropriately awesome place for that kind of money. My choice would be somewhere in the alps.

You only spend that kind of money on a condo if you can afford for that to be your home only when your in NYC to, you know, stop off to catch a flick or something in between killing bears on kodiak island and jetting down to watch your horses race in the Kentucky Derby as a break after overthrowing a few small third world nations to create a market for one of your smaller companies products.

I thought Cheney had a house in Texas, though.

Well yeah, they got him the estate in Texas too. So, apart from the pad in NYC, the lodge on Kodiak Island, the plantation in Kentucky, a few small third world nations and the estate in Texas, what else have the Haliburtons done for Cheney?

Asshole.  Now I need to go clean my brain out, I wonder if I can make a hole large enough with an ice-pick to get the q-tip inside?
