Michael Moore owns 9 homes....

[phill4paul]

According to the Detroit News, anti-capitalism "everyman" filmmaker Michael Moore owns 9 homes. On top of a $2 million, 10,000 square foot lakefront mansion in Torch Lake, Michigan, there is a Manhattan condo that was once 3 condos, and 7 other properties. Moore's secret role as a land baron was revealed in divorce papers:
The filmmaker, 60, who split his time between a home here and one in New York, is leaving his wife of 22 years, Kathy Glynn.
His hit movies and best-selling books have begat a lifestyle far from most ballcap-wearing, duck-waddling denizens of Flint.
Moore and Glynn own nine properties in Michigan and New York, including a Manhattan condo that once was three apartments. CelebrityNetWorth.com pegs their wealth at $50 million.
In legal pleadings, Moore blames his wife for the expansion of the 10,000-square-foot home on Torch Lake, which has a value of $2 million.
Since his 1989 "Roger and Me," Michael Moore has earned upwards of $50 million trashing capitalism.

The filmmaker, 60, who split his time between a home here and one in New York, is leaving his wife of 22 years, Kathy Glynn.

C'mon he is leaving her for what? A tuna on rye.

He bashes capitalism because he love crony capitalism--that's why he has 9 homes and you don't.

Sounds like he has more than his fair share. Time to re-distribute his wealth.

True story- My mother used to babysit Michael Moore as a child. She knew nothing of his "fame" until one night several years ago he was on television and his name was said. Her face dropped in disbelief.

She was like, "Oh my goodness, he looks like the grown up version of boy I used to watch back in Michigan. His name was Michael Moore too".

I went online and saw right away that he was from the same town outside of Detroit where we lived, and she told me all about him as a child.

My mother is now in her 80s but had a very good recollection of young Michael. Evidently, he was always a little "off".
Was bratty as could be but it wasn't in a typical brat kid kind of way. She feared back then that he was a little psychotic. I forget exactly what she said, but there was an incident involving a puppy or a dog that she had reason to believe he had purposefully hurt or killed (it's been too long to really say which it was), and his parents were in constant denial about his lunacy and behavioral problems.

She eventually declined to keep him any longer because she feared what he might do and the stress he put her under was not worth the bit of money his parents would pay. She never thought about him again until we saw him on TV that night.

Michael Moore was born a psychopath. It's not a difference in ideals or even that he is a liar. He's severely unstable.

It's always the smart ones who are crazy. Many people might not like to acknowledge this, but Michael Moore is a genius. He's wrong, but he's a genius. That's how he got where he is. Instead of going insane, he was able to funnel his energy into something productive. Yes, the irony is astounding, and I think even he sees it. He's living a lie.

I would agree with the genius part. I think she may have even said something along those lines. Where I would differ is that he sees he is living a lie.
Assuming he is as unstable as mom said he was, he would likely see nothing wrong with what he says and does. It makes perfect sense in his warped and entitled head.
At least, that's my take on nutters.

I rather doubt that's true. If it is, I'd question him as well since he's already turned down his pension.

That is a legitimate complaint about his consistency.

Ya but you know what? I learned everything Massie learned in that secret 20 page 9/11 document from Fahrenheit 9/11.

Watch it. It's all about the Saudi connection.

I seem to recall him saying during the last campaign that people who "pay into the system" deserve to draw bennies until teh system is reformed someday.

I don't think getting your tax money back at a later date is inconsistent..

[bunklocoempire]

I don't think getting your devalued tax money back at a later date is inconsistent..

FIFY

I sure the hell wish my folks had been able to put "their" S.S.-taken at gun point-"savings" into gold starting back in the late 50's instead of being forced into the funny money.

gggrrrrr

I watch it. As to whether or not it is stupid is subjective. Actually, it is kinda stupid. Which is why I watch it. What's gotten your panties in a bunch?

[kathy88]

Thanks Casey and Donnay for the chuckles.

[Ronin Truth]

I'll bet that Moore even secretly contributed to, and voted for Romney. :D

DAYUM!!!

[PaulConventionWV]

He paid into the system because he had to. Now he's getting some of it back. What's the inconsistency?

[Ronin Truth]

Moore probably could easily buy about ten thousand homes in Detroit now. Though I imagine that the taxes might eat him up.

[vita3]

The rich fat guy correctly pointed out the criminality between Bush & House of Saud.

If Bill O'reilly did the same thing, Republican party would have purged itself.

[Slave Mentality]

9 houses ain't going to help him with the dibeetus and heart attack he is working on. Rich divorced dude with lots of money and likes food, look out Oprah.

Those poor broke bastards in Flint bought tickets to his movies. Oh the irony.

I guess ron paul is also criticized because he accepts social security benefits. Oh wait...

As long as they force you to pay into it at gunpoint, then the principled position is to try and recoup your expense. If we were allowed to say "No, thank you." THEN the criticism for receiving SSI would be valid.

Billy steals a bunch of money from you. Thirty years later he's going through AA and decides to make amends by paying that back to you in payments. You don't say, "I don't want your money, I don't believe in charity." It's not charity. He stole the money in the first place now he's paying it back. That's called 'justice.'

Paul may not be receiving SSI because he is wealthy in his own right and likely never bothered to file; or he may be receiving it and planning to end it once he's received back what he's paid in. Or who knows, you don't. I do know that your criticism is invalid from the foundation no matter what the case is, given that SSI is mandatory.

If you hold a gun to my head and force me to spend half my food budget on rice, then regardless of how I feel about rice I will at some point end up eating rice. It's not because of my preferences or principles, it's because you would be an asshole with a gun.

Even if I was extremely wealthy, I'm not sure I could envision having more than three houses.

[GunnyFreedom]

Even if I was extremely wealthy, I'm not sure I could envision having more than three houses.

But that would not be opulent enough for your Hollywood and Washington friends. For heaven's sake if you started recycling the party location after only THREE MONTHS people would think you were poor or something. :p

I could. In fact, I plan on it.
