McMahon’s McMansion is a gift to the girl-toy he married. It really is hard to imagine that he has no rainy day fund or insurance that would help him live his lifestyle now that he has injured himself. I just can’t muster any sympathy when he is in his 80s and spending money he doesn’t have on a house that ridiculously priced. You could get a good sized condo in the same area for a quarter of that price!

That’s a pretty big drop in price, it’s almost in my price range now, lol.

He got a $7 million settlement for the toxic mold death trap. Won’t that pay for a bulldozer?

Are there any normal people left in L.A.? Are there any middle class people left in L.A.? With the ridiculous cost of everything STILL, honestly sometimes I wonder.

Us “normal” people will never understand how one can go thru this
much money – even in a lifetime – and still have nothing to show for.
So he is famous… who cares?

To use his mold invested, overpriced McMansion in relation to
the overall housing problems in California is misleading.
Let’s worry about the median house being overpriced not the top
1 percent of the housing pyramid. What the heck would you want with
this much space anyway? Could you imagine what it costs a month
to run such a house? You need a staff of employees just to keep it
clean and looking good. No thanks… I bitch enough at the PG&E bill
of my rental. I would probably faint if I ever got Ed’s electric bill.
No wonder he drinks…
