I certainly don't understand this culture because seriously, who has that much money and still walks around in a smock all day? It's not like the clothing is exactly humbling you when you hop out of your Bentley.

You have no idea how much those "smocks" cost, do you? Or the material they are made of? The sheik won't get chafed like you do with your AMD tshirt and wrangler jeans

Hence the reason I said I don't understand... I didn't claim to. Although the AMD tshirt and wrangler jeans comment made me laugh. I assume I deserve one ignorant comment for making the same.

The same kind of person who would wear a PJ's around all day and hang out with models.
 
As said earlier in this thread, the A8 is made of aluminum. MTM stripped the paint, high-polished the aluminum, and clearcoated it to protect it against the elements. That is not a house, that is indeed a hotel. It is the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi.

Well, I'm sure oil played some part in building the hotel and also in purchasing the A8, which I believe is also supercharged and has more mods and custom computer mapping, etc to deal with the superchager.
 
Of course it's a hotel... look at the rooms... equally distant from the next door. If it were someone's house, they should hire a new designer.

There's also a snopes article on this.

I was just going to post that.

That's quite the house. I can't find any proof that it's not his, but I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that was actually a hotel.

Oh well. 🙂
