Top Ten Properties I Would Buy If Money Was No Object
10. Kauai, Hawaii: This looks like a promising spot…and only $5,450,000!




9. Cabo San Lucas: This home is available for “fractional ownership”…for about $750,000 you get at least 5 weeks out of the year to use it. Just give me the whole thing for $3,750,000, mmkay? Thanks.



8. Oregon Coast: Here we have almost 10 acres with an amazing view of the Pacific. For just $3,499,000, it would be my cute little summer home.



7. Grand Cayman, BVI: If I had a cool 3 Million bucks burning a hole in my pocket, I’d totally buy this exquisite home on the island of Grand Cayman in the Caribbean.



6. Belize: Now this is just ridiculous. For a mere $1,625,000 I could live here!



5. New Zealand: I can’t grab photos of this one, so you’ll have to click here to take a look at it. I also can’t tell you how much it costs because it’s “price upon request,” but hey, I said money was no object, so it don’t really matter none, now, do it?
4. California: By golly, I said money was no object and I meant it! So for 29 (twenty. nine.) million dollars (MILLION. DOLLARS.), I could have this beauty in Carpenteria.




3. On second thought, if I’m going to spend millions upon millions of dollars, I really think maybe I ought to at least be somewhere slightly more exotic than California. Like the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean, where I can have this gem for just 12 million.




2. Did I say exotic? I’m not sure it gets much more exotic than Bora Bora, so here’s a villa with a main house, a guest house, and a guard house. It also comes with a boat, a lagoon runner, and a jet ski. Who wants to call and request the price? Let me know what you find out as soon as you come to.




1. Oh, forget it. What I really want is my own private island. Like this one in Fiji.


But enough mindless dreaming. I’m off to do something constructive with my time.
Like buy a few lottery tickets.






Constructive? What’s not constructive about this post?
I’m all for exotic. The idea of floating about in a pool WHILE LOOKING at the ocean has amazing appeal. Or…there I am, sleeping on my left side, waking in the morning, and what’s the first thing I see? Why, it’s a horizon of just ocean, viewed through ceiling to floor windows!! wow! (remember when we stayed in that hotel on the beach in Myrtle Beach and it just freaked me out to have the ocean so close? I couldnt’ sleep all night because, there, directly out the window, was an immense ocean and I just knew a tsunami would come in the middle of the night and wash us all away. Maybe it was because I was pregnant.)
Now I have to go do soemthing constructive…like make dinner.
Prettttttttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sigh.
Those are gorgeous. All of ‘em.
Makes looking out the window at our neighbor’s tractor slightly less appealing.
I will go in on the island with you..here’s my dollar…
Somehow I missed the “if money were no object” clause in your facebook post. Those are extremely beautiful places. Before we moved here I used to love to browse the listings of houses for sale & dream, now I’m really glad we decided to rent because if something better comes along I don’t have to face the nightmare of trying to sell.
I. Have. No. Words. (sigh…)
Good Lord. Stop killing yourself looking at this stuff! You just made me lose control of my bowels.
I’ll just take the guest house for the Bora Bora location, please. The one in the Caymans looks nice on the outside but would definitely have to spend a little more to remove that garish blue paint from the interior wall. Some of those others just look cold and unfriendly. The VIEWS, now, those are lovely. The houses, not so much. I vote with your mom, I’d love to float in the pool while listening to and staring at the ocean. Can’t jump the waves like that, though. hmmm.
We had some lovely places here in the Gulf, but I haven’t been down to the water yet to see how the oil enhances the appeal of the pretty water.
Actually, it’s made it to Pensacola already but so far not quite as far east as I am.
