It has been a proven fact that people with money tend to spend it on a house; even if they are known to be conservative spenders.  There are certain trends that many millionaires tend to keep similar, and renovations and characteristics that also tend to be in common.  A few for example are that they require special wings of the house secluded from the rest for members of the family that no longer live in the home full time.  They also feature extravagant guest houses, pools, landscapes, and so much more.  Another similarity is that the kitchen seems to be the most common rooms that are remodeled, and sometimes the room that is spent the least amount of time in.  “Million dollar homes”, referring to much larger home as well nowadays, also tend to have game rooms and theatres that are completely lavish.

With the introduction of talking homes, and other seemingly absurd additions to homes, there’s no putting past anything by anyone when it comes to building or remodeling homes when there is a lot of money involved.  If you’ve got $88,000, you can get two regulation bowling lanes, complete with the works.  Computerized scoring, balls, pins, shoes, you name it.  You can a get cellar for $15,000 with space for over one thousand wine bottles, and temperature controlled walls, but that’s on the low end.  If you want to get greedy, these can be priced up into the hundreds of thousands of dollars!  This is an up-and-coming trend.
