Most expensive house in the world shrouded in mystery

[JSOP]

Before WW2 and Socialism the rich owners of luxury houses in the UK used to have whole weekend parties where there would be copious quantities of booze and exotic food.
No need to mention the nightime activities .........

That is still going on.

Which is what we do anyway with our own houses everyday LOL except they get to live in a mansion.

Well, they can't, for example, throw a party in it like an owner could. And this house is made for parties.

Tbh, I find living in mansions like this to be lot more fun than throwing parties, big huge parties especially even though I agree those mansions are made for parties. It's tiring that you have to do all the preparations, the decorations, the purchasing, the arrangements, the hiring pre-party and then the cleaning-up, the returning of stuff, the washing, the discovery of how people trashed your place and/or stole after-the-party and for what? To spend hours with total strangers that you have nothing in common with talking about things that you don't give a s*** about and still have to pretend that you are interested so not to offend them and to make sure they are having a good time. It's an horrible experience if you think about it. I dunno why some people love doing it so much. I mean I can understand an intimate party between people that you know and enjoy being with (and that I am sure you can still do in that mansion. The Saudi Prince wouldn't mind), but big huge Great Gatsby-style party? No thank you.
