Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein has bought a seven-bedroom home in New York’s Hamptons that was listed for $32.5 million, a person with knowledge of the deal said, reports Bloomberg.
Blankfein took title to the property on Ocean Road in Bridgehampton in recent weeks, says Bloomberg. Property records reported by LexisNexis list the owner as ‘Fein, Blank.’
The home, with six full bathrooms, includes a tennis court, “sculpted gardens,” a swimming pool, and “a winding driveway to a home of which dreams are made," says a real estate listing.
Below are pictures of the property, when it was listed by Elliman.
Wow. THAT home was $33 million? The property is beautiful and the home is certainly not a dump. I'm not impressed for that amount of money.
ReplyDeleteBut Blankfein can afford to get ripped off. He's ripping all of us off.
We should organize a peaceful, tri-state visit to have lunch there one day. C'mon Blanks, feed me grapes, you cue-ball head.
You should see some of the crap they way over pay for here in Palm Beach. This ex Goldman genius bought a home for 4x what the two properties next to it were on the market for. He could have bought both of them, torn down the houses and built the size of house on the property he bought. I think he paid $76mil for the house which was a 18000sqft mansion. It was a cool house where the back wall of the great room dropped exposing the back pool and beach view. He could have bought the two houses next to the one he bought for $20mill, torn them down and built his dream home for $5 to 6million and ended up with exactly what he wanted for $26mil. Makes you wonder how much these guys really understand value.
Deletea house certainly worthy of a man doing god's work...
ReplyDeleteAll that money and no taste.
ReplyDeleteLloyd would like to thank the tax payers for buying a house for him. He could not have done it without you.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the Ivy league schools will be adding a class in 'financial fraud theory and practice' into their business school curriculum?
“a winding driveway to a home of which dreams are made"
ReplyDeleteHell, that's worth $30 million by itself.
Personally I find this proof that Blankfein IS a moron. This house is just plain ugly. The living room looks like a 1850's barn and the bedroom looks like a small room behind an old 1920's gas station.
ReplyDeleteGuys, as an Irish/ Australian ...... its time that the decent people of America stood up to these people...... its truely obscene what is happening to your once great country. This 'turkey' is just laughing at you........ how angry do you have to get before you do something about it ?
ReplyDeleteyou all look like a bunch of occupy wall st hippies that are just jealous of this man!
ReplyDeleteThe hippies tend to complain about all rich people. Most readers here understand the difference between profits earned in the market and profits taken via theft.
