Sometimes the very wealthy actually preserve a semblance of the rural character by buying large estates, or buying farms and turning them into estates, without breaking them up into developments.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-90276976588486401032016-03-31T13:03:21.095-04:002016-03-31T13:03:21.095-04:00Who all bought in "quaint" NW CT and the...Who all bought in "quaint" NW CT and then tried to turn it into a suburb.

This Tesla has CT plates, and even someone with more money than brains wouldn't buy a car in NYC while living in CT. The fancy cars I've seen in almost exactly the same spot (it's around the corner from where I teach workshops a couple times a year, on the way to the place I get breakfast and lunch) have included: Bently, Masserati, Aston-Martin, Ferrari—it's almost like Friday afternoon back home. (This area has many weekend palaces of ultra-rich New Yorkers, so Friday and Sunday there's a jam of super fancy cars, and hired stretch limos, making a rather unusual rush hour here.)Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-82831545781291498682016-03-26T17:35:25.979-04:002016-03-26T17:35:25.979-04:00I know that Tesla showrooms don't look like ca...I know that Tesla showrooms don't look like car dealers, more like storefronts.
