Kenny Rogers sprawling estate in Georgia is on sale!
Beaver Dam Farms is an expansive 973-acre private estate tucked away in the rolling foothills of Athens, Georgia. Built and designed by country music legend the Gambler himself, Kenny Rogers has just been listed privately for $20 million. 
The luxurious, fully-furnished estate, located on the original site of one of Georgia's grandest plantations, features a 12,000-square-foot main house complete with two gyms, a movie theater, a billiards room and an Italian marble wraparound porch. There is also a six bedroom guest house, a four bedroom guest cottage, and four one-bedroom villas.
From a Big property to a big Price!! $20 Million is a steal compared to the $85 Million sales price for the late Aaron Spelling Mansion (famous for Melrose place, dynasty, 90210) has been sold to Petra Ecclestone. Listed for price was $150 million. And sold for the $85 million., the 22 year old, daughter of Formula One head Bernie Ecclestone (net worth $4 billion) and yes you heard me 22 year old!!!
After putting her mansion on the market, Candy Spelling made news for buying a two floor condo in Century City recently for $45 million. When built, the Spelling mansion broke records as the largest home in Los Angeles County – a French chateau-style mansion spanning 56,500 square feet of space on a 4.6 acre lot abutting the Los Angeles Country Club. Honestly I think these people just have way too much money!! And space!! There is a term called “too much!”

Charlie Sheen has put his Beverly Hills mansion up for sale - complete with its own luxury movie theatre….for you know…….movies.
The five-bedroom property is on the market for an incredible $7.2 million . 
Wall Street star Sheen, 45, paid his ex-wife $1 million to become the sole owner of the home in their divorce proceedings earlier this year. Money magazine Forbes estimates that Sheen has earned $40 million in the last 12 months - despite getting sacked as the highest paid actor on TV for his role in the sitcom Two And A Half Men.
…WOOOOOWWWW!

Now we go from should be committed to committed …

Power couple Ellen Degeneres and Portia. They have spent more than four years—and many millions of dollars—completing their Beverly Hills compound. They bought a 9,000-square-foot house in April 2007 for a whopping $29Million. You wouldn’t believe it but over the years they bought surrounding mansions totaling 19Million, converting some into guest spaces and leveling the others.

I guess now Ellen and Portia have tired of their humungo estate, will they see any return on their almost $50M investment? The Real Estalker has it on good authority that entire compound has an amazing price of $60Million.
