how much is too much?

Last year, we attended an estate sale. The estate belonged to tech guru Scott Jones. He's actually a pretty fascinating person. You should Google him. Here's the link to the sale;

and here's a little more about him;

We went for a few reasons. 1, how often do you get to go inside a 27,000 sq ft house??? That's the size of 14 of our house!!! 2, how often do you get to see what rich people put in their houses?! One of the things that surprised me about the place was how well it was lived in. You could really tell that he and his family actually lived in that house. It wasn't just a decorator showcase. It did have the best (presumably) of everything though. 

But I found myself wondering, why? Why do you want a 27,000 sq ft house? Is it for no other reason than, you can? Even if you do a ton of entertaining or have a 100 friends, does your home need to be 27,000 sq ft?!!? Really, it was pretty grand in some regards but definitely not my cup of tea. I've been in some other homes that were owned by wealthy people and felt the same way...not my cup of tea. But of course I thought, wow this is nice. But I never thought, this place is nicer than mine. I much prefer my cozy home, filled with knick knacks and family pictures and things from places we've been. Things that make me smile when I look at them. A home where my friends would come to see ME, not my stuff! And they'd immediately feel comfortable when they walked in.  Really, do you need a $100,000 piano? Or an $80,000 pool table? OK, so the home theater would be fun, but geez. How much is too much? And why would you want too much? Other than collecting something - like maybe Funko Pop :-)

I'm SO happy with everything I have, it never occurs to me to compare myself to other people, or want so much more than I already have. I guess I don't think big enough. 

I'd like to think that if I won the lottery, I wouldn't turn into a pretentious ass.
