I was reading the news this week and came across THIS news article. A beautiful mansion right on the water in a luxury neighborhood in Florida might be getting turned into a drug and rehab clinic. On top of the fact that its a mansion on the beach, this place also has a full-time professional chef, an on call staff, a private pool, a baby grand piano, a home theater, and who knows what else!
Let's be honest, that's the kind of place most of us dream of living in someday. But we know its only a dream. There's only two ways to get a home like that. You can be a genius or savant who works hard and gets rich. Or you can get lucky and hit the lottery, either by being born into the right family or by landing the magic megaball ticket.
But apparently, now there is a third option. You can become a drug addict and go to rehab. This has actually been causing a bit of a stir in the neighborhood and in general. People have cried out that this will make the wealthy neighborhood unsafe and hurt its value. Let's be honest, that's very possible. In addition, some of the neighbors simply don't want to be near those who need rehab. Others have argued that drug abusers should not be rewarded for their mistakes with such luxury as it sends a very confusing message.
