The Most Expensive Real Estate

Realtors would have us believe that property value is all about location! location! location! This is true about most real estate in the world. But there is one piece of real estate that is not exactly about location. It’s more about ownership.

The most expensive Real Estate, in my opinion, is your mother’s womb. The standard tenancy is for 9 months. However, even when that term has elapsed, your obligations under the tenancy continue in nigh perpetuity so long as your landlady still breathes and walks the earth.

Not even when other siblings have subsequently taken up temporary residence in the same realty. The tenancy never ends. Atleast from mother’s perspective. The rent can never be quantified or fully paid up. Her word is law and her needs are king lest you forget, “I brought you into this world!” As she is wont to remind us at every opportunity as an aside or prelude to an inconvenient request or unsolicited advice.

O yes my brother, the most expensive real estate is not found in London, Rome, Athens, Paris, Shanghai, Singapore, Tokyo or any other mythopoeic city in history or geography rather it sits sweet in the middle beneath mommy dearest’s navel.
