I just saw this story on the news...This 22 year old daughter of a Russian billionaire just gave his daughter the entire amount to purchase this condo on Central Park West in New York City.... She is in a disclosed college somewhere...She purchased the condo so she will have somewhere to stay when she visits New York... WOw, all I could do was just shake my head and said WOW!!!!!! Did I say she is just 22?????

It must be nice to have the money to do with as you pleased. This is pretty out there but for privacy I guess the rich and famous have to do such things. I just watched The Ultimate Gift with James Garner and it was about this very thing. It had a very good message for such people.

yep celticeagle, I am sure its nice to have that type of money to just spend like that... I am sure somewhere in this story there is something to be learned.. As of this minute I can't see myself with that type of money so the lesson hasn't hit me yet,,,,Like I said just can't wrap my head around this story.....

The best I could muster up when I first read that was what. This girl will never know the meaning of earning money via a hard day's work and that's a shame. It builds character and teaches not to frivolously spend mad amounts of money on a condo in New York. I can barely afford rent in my horrendously gross little house, I can't imagine spending that much money on a condo ever.

I am with you polaroidsredwine, all the way..What I thought about was what is she studying in college...What does she intend to do with her life in the future...But 22 years old any living in that sort of life style is far past any imagination... But the condo is just where she will stay when she visits New York. instead of staying in a hotel...wow....

Mabybe that is just rich man life, Russian Billionaire spent 88 million to buy a condo for his daughter that is mabye equivalent to you use your money to buy a car for your child, the money of buying a house equates to that money buying a car, he is so rich.

Wooww...the sadly side news about her is she's not buying condo with her own money, instead she's still bought by her father, she seems to be a spoiled little doughter i guess;)
