I agree that the house thing is pretty telling of one's view of what is priority. I wonder what one would say about my dwelling... :) (Jenny, that smiley face is just for you!)

Meaning that by purchasing the ostentatiously large home the CEO is stating with a great deal of self-importance that his status is superior and that his comfort and lifestyle is of paramount concern. Whereas the CEO's who purchase smaller homes are instead willing to not have the biggest, fanciest house on the block instead opting for more functional and realistic luxury that allows them to remain more focused on the needs and demands of their company, and not the needs and demands of their luxurious lifestyle. It seems that this house buying is a simple reflection of priority and well not a completely rock solid investment strategy the mindset of the CEO seems like a point of concern for me when investing my money into someone else's corporation.
