What could $35 million buy? a) Over 600 four year financial aid buyouts for Georgetown undergraduates b) Finish the Multi-Sport facility and endow all 13 men's basketball scholarships c) land for a new 1,500 acre campus in western Maryland or... d) a house in the middle of Denton County, TX. A house??? I'm only 34.99 million short. www.alliebethallman.com/perl/mls-1.pl?agent=aba&ListingID=10369418

I think the electric bill to keep that place cool could endow the basketball scholarships.

I love that it has 6.8 baths. What's .8 of a bathroom?

I love that it has a Conservatory. I'll bet the layout looks like a Clue gameboard.

Seriously, mine is better and I didn't pay a dime over 28.3 mil.

That house. *shakes head*
Who says we don't need an estate tax anymore?

No full-size basketball court? I'm not interested. For those unfamiliar with Denton, Texas, you can check out the lovely scenery surrounding the ridiculousness here, as well as proximity to the rest of the D/FW area: Satellite Photo

What the heck is the big deal about a $35 million dollar house? Here in SoCal, that will buy you a teardown.
The place does look decent, though. 48,000 square feet sounds livable.

Guess somebody has some clout with Google Maps.
