My brother sent me this link and told me to check it out. I'm not sure who's house this is but the title of this thread says it all... His home theater along with the rest of his house is unreal, check it out.

    Ron is a mogul in the **** industry (or so I've heard). His home theater looks like the Starship Enterprise and his car collection is unbelievable.

    :eek:

    Man, I love that car collection. Forget the house, just lemme live in the 'garage' with the cars!

    Did y'all see the Bugatti Veyron?! Right there's $1.25 million or so.

    Porsche Carrera GT, Lamborghini Murcielago, Saleen S7, another Murcielago? or a Gallardo..., 9 other Lamborghinis?!, look at the F1 cars!...no telling how much they cost, a few pretty '60s Camaros/Vettes, how many Lingenfelter Vettes is that?!, ok...why in the world would he have Oldsmobile SUV's/vans?!

    That's just insane...and I hope with all my heart my garage looks like that some day...:D

    I wonder if that girl would still be hanging around there if he lost all his money tomorrow...

    Nice...palace, but the guy's no Audio/Video connosuer. Dell PCs, Crown amps, a Meridian integrated, what looks like a digital projector, no speakers in sight. If I had that kind of cash I'd do much much better - not sure what exactly, but much better (the girls too) :D And I wouldn't make an awful themed HT room :p

    Heresy! :D KITT's voice wasn't ****! It was the guy from St Elsewhere, aka the principal from Boy Meets World. (And I'm sure hundreds of things before my time).
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    nice I like the bugatti he has so many cars from official races it's sick. I agree with I wouldn't have so many just a few. that minivan is an official pace car so i guess he had to get it. I also like the indoor pool which is amazing mainly because of the high cieling and foilage. HT of course is lacking in our eyes.

    6 Lambos allows you to go out driving with your friends. All grab a lambo and take a drive. Same as a bike rally but with cars.

    It is definitely a crazy world. It is hard to judge when you also have to consider the women (and men) who sell their body for a price so that this man can put it in a video or magazine. You then must consider the people who are paid by this man to develop and produce the video and magazine. Now you have the owners of shops like a local gas station that sells his magazines. You have your local teenagers who work in these gas stations selling the magazines so that they can get minimum wage. You even have those that are defending our country (and can shop at the BX) who are purchasing these magazines. Heck even at church, I can look out at the congregation and know that just about everyone has either purchased one of these magazines or knows a few people that has.

    So who are the bad guys and who are the good guys? I do not want to make that call. People who lay down their lives for me are supporting this man. I do not consider them bad, then how can I consider this man bad.

    George, like you, I do not morally agree with this type of business. However to condemn this man is to condemn all that support him as well. I am not ready to do that.

    I really hate people like this. If you have all that money you should put it to good use, like starting up a charity or something that will benefit people in need. For all I know this man could be a huge donator or whatever, but I highly doubt it. Live amongst your means and spread the wealth. I think this guy just likes the attention.

    And yes, I would trade places with him in a minute :D
