Money Doesn't Talk

And most of what money screams is obscene. 

Robin Williams once observed "Cocaine is God's way of telling you that you have too much money." These days, with all due respect to the late Mr. Williams, it's real estate, baby.

In the not too distant past, one in every five hundred of us in this country experienced homelessness. Last autumn, on average, every night over ninety thousand New York City residents availed themselves of homeless shelters because they had nowhere else to stay.  

We all know/are/were someone one paycheck or less away from being on the street. And yet, we continue to consider ourselves the richest nation on earth. So what might it cost to 'fix homelessness?'

Yeah, sure seems to be expensive especially when we have more far more will than wallet. Speaking of wallet AND the obscenity of money, try this on for size, starting at $9,400,000

Maybe they have Moving-In Specials. Remember: If you don't ask, you don't get.
