According to McClatchy

Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor owns a condo valued at $1 million in New York's Greenwich Village but otherwise is a woman of fairly modest means..

Other than serving as Vice President of the United States, winning a Nobel prize, and publishing three best selling books, and making an Academy Award winning movie, Al was a fellow with few accomplishments.

Except for the large green tentacle growing out her forehead Xil was ordinary looking woman.

Other than being a serial killer, Lambert was a heck of a nice guy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Real estate in NYC is expensive. I'd imagine $1M buys a fairly modest condo there.

Yeah, and depending on when and where she bought, she could be like some artist types I know who bought in Soho way back when and their income's not that high. Or she could be house poor.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah, a million in the Village will be nice, but not extravagant.

I was gonna say, friends of mine own half-a-mil houses here in MD, and while they are comfortable, they are basically my salary times 2 and have kid expenses and I'm not raking in the bucks, but I am making it on my own. And owning doesn't mean paid off. Taken out of context... Half a mil in or a mil in my hometown is miles away from what it is in NY or here.

I just looked: half-a-mil in LC starts at between 2500 and 4000 sq ft. Jeez.

Because books.

But ... I think the point was not that her million-dollar property was especially big or luxurious, just that she *has* assets worth a million dollars, right?

But that doesn't mean much if you're going to live in NYC, particularly if she's still paying the mortgage.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yup - what the other city folk said. $1M is a lot of money, but it's not a lot of Village condo.

This too.
