So you can lock yourself away from the world and pretend Trudeau doesn't exist.

You don't pay federal property taxes. Also, you can take a loss on the house for 5 years on your income tax

I was about to say the exact same thing.
Personally, for my wife and myself, we have about 1500 sq, ft. now and plan to stay under 2000, neither of us want all the space at this point. But, if someone wants a 15k sq ft mega-mansion with 15 bedrooms and 3 swimming pools, good on them if they can afford it, if the money came legally,miss nobody's business what they choose to spend it on. Fuck jealous leftists who spend their money on pricey craft beers and ironic t-shirts, they can eat a dick.

>everyone lives in the US
ok
rich people judge you for how big your house is

My house is ~6k sqft. The reason my family "needs" the space is my wife and I have a newborn and 2 year old. Both sets of grand parents visit for weeks at a time due to being retired and having nothing better to do. Also I hate my inlaws. To top it off my aunt was laid off last year and she lives in the apartment over the garage. My siblings and their families also visit pretty regularly.
tl;dr: so family doesn't kill each other.

So .. Why?
I could eat 5000 calories worth of food "because I can"
There has to be an underlying reason like
>if I have this big nice house, bitches will want to fuk me
> I have status and live in a nice neighbourhood not filled with niggers
>>80458532
Fap in each room, stain the carpets, Sell house, buy new one... Repeat as above. Why be rich if you can't do shit like this?

It's aesthetic as fuck. Huge windows for a lot of light and good view. Private pool, no little kid piss in it. Private, large backyard for your kids to play sports in, run the dog etc.

Hide as much currupt money offshore as possible, like a swiss bank account. You should know this, Wang.
>>80458532
Its for showing off to friends. Its mostly social people who buy big houses, people who want to host parties and show off to their friends "look how much better my life is than yours."
There are a lot of rich people who aren't all that social who live in apartments and small houses.

Exactly, you can eat that food because you can. Nobody cares.
Some people like to flaunt how much money they have.
Because the economic system puts enormous resources in the hands of a few, The culture values conspicuous spending, and the legal system is set up to defend the wealthy.

Some people with big houses will use them for future wedding ceremonies and other shit.
It is expensive to rent space at other venues for events compared to your big house if you could afford it.
If you can afford it, a big house is nice to have.

Fuck bitches

We just kinda get drunk and build this shit. Nobody plans it. Don't ask me where our skills come from.
