 Posted: 03/14/03 - 20:33 Post subject: Well this is kind of bizarre..
There's this really way cool house in the new hood I saw running the other night. It's in the ritzy section, on top of this huge hill. It looks very Frank Lloyd Wright inspired, with about 4 outdoor terrraces/decks at three different levels. I don't really know how else to describe it but it's awesome!!!!!
Anyway, I got home from my run and I was talking to the other half about this house; he's like "oh, yea, so and so lives there". Well mr. so- and- so was my divorce attorney. I'm glad I helped fund/make mortgage payments on this house!  It's got to be worth $850M if not more; I can't see the whole thing or all the land so I am lowballing it. Prolly more because I guess the school system here (not Columbus public) is really good.

How much an hour do they charge. My family attorney charges 175.00 and I now that is on the low end. Some of the top criminal defense attorneys around here cost 400-500 an hour

I don't know what he charges now; when I retained him it was close to that. Let's just say the thing cost me about a nice downpayment on a decent (not ritzy, but nice, normal) starter house. OH well, I guess if you're good at what you do you deserve it, right. It's just wierd that I am now coveting his house!!!

8.5 million? Maybe. 850 million? No Way. There are buildings in Manhattan that don't go for that much!
$850k isn't really a lot for a house now a days
