The Obamas signed a contract to lease an 8,200-square-foot home in Washington D.C.’s Kalorama neighborhood. Located at 2446 Belmont Road NW, the red-brick abode contains nine bedrooms and eight-and-a-half bathrooms spanning three stories. It's estimated to be worth $6.4 million, but the Obamas are only renting. Owned by Joe Lockhart—who served as press secretary under Bill Clinton—and his wife, Giovanna Gray, the stately dwelling was partly chosen for its close proximity to Sidwell Friends School to enable the Obamas’ younger daughter Sasha to finish school.

The Kardashian family makes it no secret that they’re super-rich, and when a birthday comes around the family usually goes all out. Cosmetics mogul Kylie Jenner turned 22 on August 10, 2019, and she rode in style on the Tranquility yacht — a ridiculously huge superyacht that’s the length of a football field. Tranquility is more of a house than a yacht in some regards. It houses 22 guests in fully furnished rooms that look like they belong in a five-star hotel. In terms of the expected deluxe amenities, Jenner and her friends can enjoy a sauna, beauty salon, theater, gym, massage room, beach club, a Turkish bath and the service of a full 29-person crew. All these amenities ran the group $1.2 million per week.

Hansel and Gretel would probably have been safer at this gingerbread house in New York, rather than that of the wicked witch.
