Do you know what kind of house you get when a 22 year old trophy wife on her third pregnancy has access to her husband’s banking account? Have you seen such horrors as “”““Greek””“” pillars displayed in front of red brick siding? Or a dining room on the opposite side of the house as the kitchen, which is next to the master bathroom?
