non-mercer related: got $20,000 lying around?


mom and pop have been casually looking over apartment rentals and house listings recently. pop found this house in scarsdale, ny with a rent of $20,000/MONTH:

"For rent is a 5000 square foot 1940 colonial estate with 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and almost 3 acres of land on a private road in the prestigious Quaker Ridge school district of Scarsdale, NY. The house is 1.5 miles from the Scarsdale Pool and the Saxon Woods public golf course (2 of the many great amenities of the Village of Scarsdale)."

The ad goes on to say that the minimum rental contract is 1 year. To save you from doing the math, that's $240,000. scarsdale is one of the ritziest towns in the county, but 20K is mind-blowing. no info on whether that price includes the tent or not.

just had to share that.
