When searching high and low for that perfect home, aren’t you a bit curious, as I am, about what the “rich and famous” might be buying? After all, if you’re rich or famous, or rich AND famous, isn’t that the ONLY way you can afford an expensive lifestyle?

Now, if you do live in Hawaii, I’d like to know, where do you live?
