This is why I hate the tampa bay news sites. They both (TBO especially) have an insufferable amount of hate spewing trolls. Bashing anything and everything they can. I just read the articles now and make sure I don't scroll down to even dip into the comments section.

That being said, his house will have more square feet than a publix. 10x the size of mons venus. Thats just crazy.

The main issue people are having with the house is it breaks all the current housing codes for Davis Island.

Honestly, even with millions of dollars I wouldn't want a house that big. I would much rather have 6 5,000 sq ft house stragetically placed throughout the world then one 30k sq foot house.

If I had his money in FL, I'd rather buy this

I saw this in the TBT, they compared it to your buddys house... Grieger.

Nice idea, but I just can't fathom why someone needs that much space.

He doesn't.. He's showing off..

 

[Coqui]

He doesn't.. He's showing off..

It's not like he's the only one though. One of my friends built a house where the kids playroom is the size of my house.

But hey,they want to pay for the upkeep of something that size, who am I to argue.

Jeter is spending money back into the economy so that's a good thing.

Making that much money a year, and a measly $7mil is showing off?

$7 mill was for the land. That didn't include the house.

 

[OzSTEEZ]

Making that much money a year, and a measly $7mil is showing off?

Of course it is..

 

[fly]

Of course it is..

What should he do with all that money then? Put it in a savings account and pretend it doesn't exist?

send it to us so we can buy huge houses too

 

[OzSTEEZ]

Of course not.

Why they are getting paid that much money is beyond me.

They should be capped at 20 million. The rest goes to a charity of their choice..
