But Who'll Do the Dusting?

Forbes.com has just published a list of the world's most expensive homes. My own property taxes just went up again, but this kind of puts it all into perspective.

Topping the list is Updown Court in Windlesham, Surrey, UK. For the asking price of $138 million, you get a home larger than Buckinghame Palace, including 103 rooms and 58 acres of gardens and woodlands.

Other options on the list include:

• An 8,400-acred nature reserve in Lusaka, Zambia complete with elephants, zebras, lions, baboons, ostriches. Price: $20,000,000.


• A 30,000-square-foot, 64-room home on the Bosphorus (Istanbul Strait) in Turkey. Price: $100,000,000.
  
• A home on Hong Kong's Peak with views of Hong Kong Harbor from its four bedrooms in 6,000 square feet, plus private pool and elevator. Price: $24,400,000.


• A pair of islands in Bora Bora, French Polynesia. Just wading distance apart, the islands feature solar-powered tropical villas. Price: $19,000,000.

Hmmm... what's that work out to in terms of monthly mortgage payments?
