fwiw, outside a few areas you're not getting much more utility from a $6.5M home than a $2.5M home

in that case this "buddy" is probably someone whose RinkedIn profile he's jacked it to, but he's never actually met. Or like his HBS "friend," purely fictional.

Unsure but he seems somewhat conservative. Also top ugrad and MBA and been doing finance for a number of years. He must have $13+ M net worth.

yes, conservative and $6m houses are common combinations for 35 year olds

conservative 35 year olds love paying $150,000 per year in real estate taxes

it really depends on net worth. with a $15M+ net worth, a $6M forever home isnt that big of a deal.

I have a buddy with massive family wealth and a super successful family business who recently bought a $4.5mm house. It's huge but no shit probably more than 1/2 of the interior space is bedrooms.

Oh well.

My parents have a 6,300 sq/ft house and my house is 3,400 sq/ft. I've lived in both. There is no appreciable difference once you have a certain amount of room. If both homes are equally nice, the happiness difference is non-existent once you get over the first few months of excitement having a huge house. I have enough bedrooms for my kids, my office, my pool table, my backyard, and my game room.

Having an extra 3k sq/ft or more would make zero difference. Plus the cost of heating and maintaining that space would be tremendous. I almost bought a 5,000 sq/ft house in my neighborhood until I relized I didn't need the extra room, and my heating, cooling, and gardening costs would be double.

He would have been better spending 2 mil and investing 4.5 mil into passive income.

House isn't necessarily bigger but in the most prime / in demand area. Arguably the ROI is higher because there will always be a huge demand for the most prime areas.

100% CR

I live in ARE COUNTRY, married, no kids, two small dogs. Copped a 2100 sqft house walking distance to bars and restaurants. I struggled to use all the space I have now, and entertain people every week to justify it. My next house will be smaller and more modern.

Tl;dr: don’t buy for your neighbors, buy for yourself.

2100 sq feet is just the right size for a family of 3 or 4 IMO

for just 2 people, probably like 1400 sq feet
