A sprawling oceanfront Florida compound owned by the Ziff family is asking just under $200 million, according to people familiar with the property, making it one of the highest priced listings in the country.
quote:
Located on a barrier island in Manalapan, just south of Palm Beach, the nearly 16-acre property known as “Gemini” spans the width of the barrier island, with roughly 1,200 feet of frontage on the Atlantic Ocean and about 1,300 feet on the Intracoastal Waterway.
quote:
The oceanfront house is connected to guest quarters known as the Ficus Wing, which sits on the Intracoastal, by a tunnel that runs underneath the road bisecting the property. The tunnel is air-conditioned and furnished as a living room, with a fireplace and skylights
quote:
There are other Palm Beach properties with tunnels that go under the road, but they are “generally utilitarian,” Mr. Moeser said. He added that there are two other unfurnished tunnels on the Gemini property that residents use to get from one side to the other.
quote:
In addition to the main home, there is a seven-bedroom house known as the Mango House, two four-bedroom cottages on the beach, a manager’s house with four apartments, and manager’s offices.
quote:
On the grounds there is a pool, a pier and a dock for boating. A sports complex has a half basketball court and a tennis court. There is also a golf practice area with two greens. For children, the property has a multitiered treehouse, a playground and a miniature golf course with a model train set running through it.
Get your bids in but I won't go a penny higher than $150M. LINK

If I lived there I don't think I'd ever leave except for sporting events I wanted to attend.
Then I'd fly right back.
That is my paradise.

I'd hate to see what a hurricane would do to that place.

Don't want anyone thinking he made his fortune with Car & Driver
quote:
He is a billionaire and the eldest son of publishing magnate William Bernard Ziff, Jr. He and his two brothers inherited the family fortune in 1994.
He has a Forbes Self Made Score of 2
quote:
This year, we gave each member of The Forbes 400 a score on a scale from 1 to 10 — a 1 indicating the fortune was completely inherited, while a 10 was for a Horatio Alger-esque journey.

That reminds me. I need to become better friends with my people in Palm Beach.

Who gives a frick where it came from?
I've never understood the indictment against wealthy people who inherited their fortune. Did they do something wrong, or are people just jealous?

They jelly. Do you think he wakes up in the morning and scratches his 4.9 billion dollar arse and worries about his Forbes rating.

Yeah, I mean just sitting there that money generates $40,000,000 a year in interest at worst. Try and wrap your head around that shite for a second. He can spend $40,000,000/year and his net worth will not shrink.
