[@NickaLah]

I think after seeing enough millionaires admit there are rooms they never use, and forget they even have... it's gotten pretty old. So much excess while others are suffering, some of them our essential workers. Makes me feel really bad how long we've ignored suffering in other countries, though. I get it seems like a huge problem that not one person can fix, but I don't think defending these homes for the sake of just being cool to experience is the answer, either. Moreso when it displaces locals, especially in Hawaii.

[@blvck.bubbles7195]

Is it really showy though? Cuz I didn't know about these till I saw this video. I think it's only showy if you heavily pay attention to celebrities. Also who cares what they're doing with all those rooms. Most people in first world country buy things they don't need. I think this is only a bother because of how bad the US government is and in that case you should be directing your frustration to the government

[@MrKangorilla]

Thing is it's not the celebrities that are showing their houses off in these. Its news pages and sites reporting on purchases because they're public and people care about what the ultra-rich are buying for some reason. You can complain it's too much and that it's a bad symptom of consumerist culture, but these commenters are acting like these houses have been flaunted in their face when they gone to these pages to comment on them lol

Is it your assumption that to become millionaires and billionaires they took money from the middle class and below? Because I would have to admit you are correct... the middle class and struggling and even the poverty class HANDED the people on this list their money voluntarily. They were all actors and artist. All on the side of judgment and reminding everyone how they are great people and that we need to listen to their message... hmm ever think that they pretend to be on the same side as the crazies... so the crazies won't notice their $57 mil houses?

Yea, it kinda seems like most people have the mindset that if they can't have something, then no one else should. It's like how so many people want to be able to give their children nice things, but also look down on those who had nice things in their childhood, because apparently that means that they never experienced true hardship and don't know the worth of a dollar. I guess it boils down to people not wanting to experience suffering, but then resenting anyone who doesn't have to suffer. Makes no sense.

[@TenApplesforTime]

@@orchdork775 I think people are misunderstanding the whole point of the making fun of rich houses trend. It's not so much "rich people cant have nice things" its "rich people buy things that are huge and glamorous but have no style, personality, or creativity". I mean I'm sure some folks just want to make fun of people who are wealthier than them, but the point being missed is the critique of design when these people have all the money in the world to have the best looking house on the block. Some celebrities I've seen be praised for their houses are Vanessa Hudgens and Doja Cat.

Mean comments from people bitter about their own bad housing situation aren’t really that surprising. Housing crisis is an absolute mess and seeing a mega mansion being RENTED is just crazy. And knowing they likely don’t even use 2/3rds of their own home just makes you feel more bitter. People don’t really pine after that stuff anymore, most people are pining after something livable. I don’t think people find looking at houses like that fun like they used to. Ok but if I get a mega mansion I’m absolutely building a castle, all these modern style houses are stale

[@aidanshoey]

people aren’t frustrated with people having dope homes, they are mad at the disparity of wealth. the fact that most of the infrastructure in most US cities are crumbling and the top 1% and .001% own more than 90% of all wealth in the country. not trying to go into a “capitalist bad” rant but that’s the root of the issue at hand. if you compare the us to countries going through the same issues before us-you’ll see shit isn’t looking too great.

Cody has a net worth of $3 million so he’s not in the same boat as a lot of us who are struggling to pay our rent and don’t want to see millionaire basically flexing all the money they have while they rest of us are still recovering financially post pandemic. This video has a similar vibe of the one that he did talking about his income and the guy analyzing how much money he makes and I think moving forward he would be a lot better off not talking so much about money and glorifying rich elitist. Again I don’t want to be shady because I’m a fan but subjects like this coming from someone who has lotta money can rub people the wrong way.

Also, Cody isn’t defending millionaires. He literally said “nobody needs 33,000 square feet.” He’s never been the guy to show off his success. He’s not shoving it in your face.

There are really (architecturally) interesting and beautiful, detailed houses out there that cost a giant fortune.

There's no interesting change in texture throughout the indoors, the walls are just predominantly white (to make it look brighter and spacier), and the furniture is predominantly black and white as well. There isn't a touch of inspired artistry in these.

[@mayd.7873]

right? completely ignoring the economic and environmental impacts of egregiously excessive homes like this, they're just... boring. there's no artistry to it, no individuality, no creativity. no functionality either--the white cabinets in some of those kitchens will be easy as hell to stain after using the kitchen three times. it's like... these are not spaces that are designed to be lived in, they're just designed to flaunt.

Im not saying you're wrong, architecturally many of them probably are really boring but who tf cares? It's not like you have to or ever will live in those houses, it's just very weird what you people are doing.

I was about two minutes into the video and came straight here. so glad to see these comments putting what I was feeling into words. It’s totally okay to not relate to us and to appreciate these houses, but as a voice of the poor/working class people, we are angry seeing taxes we worked for and corrupt celebrity money getting spent on ridiculous rooms that will not ever be used, unnecessary decorations that will never be moved and eventually thrown out, it’s overall so wasteful of everything, money, resources, time! our only way to voice this is on these types of pages. Personally, I wouldn’t be one to comment on these, I can appreciate the beauty of interior design while still resenting the people creating and buying these homes, but for someone with lots of money and a nice house to be critiquing less well off people for being angry at this type of ridiculous housing is tone deaf. There’s a reason you’re decently well off and still living in a moderately sized home with stuff of your own on every shelf.

So I'm kinda with Cody on this one, though I wished he would have adressed that at some point and maybe got a bit more critical about the social issues underlying here. 3/5

Some of those houses are beautiful, but this video doesn't sit right with me. I think something like 40% of Americans can't afford a sudden $400 bill (stat from 2019). People see excess wealth and are understandably disillusioned with our system.

I've never seen a harder miss. My condolences on this video

Having great success makes some people lose who they were. I'll ever forget having to turn in cans as a kid just to get a treat, or missing out on school activities like prom because I, nor my parents could afford any of it. Or quitting a job then being evicted because I didn't have a car & winter was deadly. Some of the rich have struggled & they're the ones who do it right. If I ever get there, I'd be content with a house by a lake & some of the fun things that come with that. I'll be sure the rest goes to the right places. I always hope to think like "I'm human" & never think like "I'm rich". In the end, we're all gonna die & it wouldn't feel right to live large & give minimal.
