Well, IDK where you're from. But you don't exactly tell your staying guests to shower or do their business in your family bathroom. Especially in high brows community. That is uncouth. 

I'm from Europe. So maybe it's that. Where are you from?

The killer could basically live next to you for years, taking nice long baths and sneakily stealing some of your snacks and you wouldn't even know in these mansions 

This reminds me for a commercial I saw for a TV show about phrogging (where someone lives in your house without your knowing). Shudder. No thank you.

Okay but the thing I never understand is WHY do 8 bedroom houses have TWELVE bathrooms!! An ensuite in every single bedroom and also 4 more bathrooms elsewhere? Who the **** needs 12 ****ing toilets??? Rich people really do live insane lives. Even if I were a multimillionaire I wouldn't have them build my house with 12 bathrooms that is ridiculous

1 for each bedroom, 1 or 2 when you come into the house/for visitors to use, etc.

I live in argentina and i’ve lived in huge houses. Usually rich people don’t live alone. They can house all/most of their staff there (the most important staff sometimes get to live there with their own families too) so they need regular bathrooms and bathrooms for the guest staff living there. You can also add a bath or two for guests and some of them may even be far from the main living quarters. I can see a nanny or two living in, a cooker, cleaning staff, maybe even a housekeeper and a gardener.

Ah, I see. It's common in Murica

Also this factor too:

When you have parties do you want a zillion friends or strangers tracking through your bedrooms? If you have friends or family staying and then some randos on your couch they'd have to enter someone's bedroom to use a toilet in the middle of the night 🤣 per square feet it's not really that odd. I grew up mid middle class and our house had technically 6 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms and a ½ bathroom it sounds ridiculous saying it this way but in essence our house wasn't THAT big per square feet. Average split level suburban house.

Imagine if the plumbing goes down in a house like that..

I recently saw a video of a girl who had some dude living in her attic. He opened the window to the attic and just lived in her house without her knowing. Seriously creepy.

And that couldn’t happen in more traditional housing?

If I ever became a celebrity, I would legit just buy out right a 3 bedroom, 2 bath Rancher house for like $200,000. Perhaps splurge on a pool and a screened in deck. 

Like my episode of Cribs would be so boring. Here is my fake hardwood floors, carpet from Home Depot, and balsa-wood counter tops. Episode ends. 

 

I grew up poor, so that’s good enough for me.

Actually, you likely won't. Adele grew up poor as well, look where she is now. 

When you have more money, you will start to realize that you are allowed to upgrade you life standards and you have better options. Especially when you don't have a lot growing up, once you holds that power, you'd want to go all out on all aspects of your life.
