I don't remember if it was awaiting moderation. If it was, please delete this one.<br />Briefly, I'd responded to the question with your last photo by saying that I think all of the usual stuff, positive and negative, goes on behind the doors of Beacon Hill homes, although probably mutiplied many times over by the fishbowl effect of living amongst such wealth. I wouldn't want to live in Beacon Hill or anywhere that prices are that stratospherically high. I wouldn't mind a lottery win and having lots of money, but that's only because, like most people, I'm convinced I could do a better job of living with wealth than is generally the case. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447366798740422421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-59824168924109722822018-04-02T10:42:03.394-05:002018-04-02T10:42:03.394-05:00I love your theme!

I'm guessing all of the usual joys and challenges, taken up a few notches because of the money (if some of my favourite tv movies and series are to be believed).<br />I wouldn't actually like to live in Beacon Hill, or any other place where property prices are in the stratosphere. The people I know who have even a fraction of that kind of money seem to spend a great deal of their time talking about it, protecting it, and believing they don't have enough of it. <br />That said, give me a major lottery win and I'll happily prove that I can be the exception to the rule!<br />Have a great day, Molly.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13447366798740422421noreply@blogger.com
