Michael Jordan has been unable to sell his gigantic house, in Highland Park, Illinois, either. I guess the indoor basketball court with a piece of the old Chicago Stadium isn't good enough to get the house to sell. :tongue:

I don't think MJ has ever gotten over the fact Tiger Woods passed him as the wealthiest athlete in history and more popular worldwide as well.:gig

When you build one of those monstrosities and put all the personal touches you want in place then it's a lot harder to sell later on and usually the price will drop significantly just to get rid of it. Here just selling an acreage takes about 3 years on average because only a particular demographic wants the privacy, plus you have to own a plow to keep your driveway open in the winter and the general upkeep of a large property takes a lot of your time.

I couldn't care less who owned the house before I bought it, I've never been one who fixates on a celebrity or famous figure.
