All I could think about looking at the pictures is, "get your grimey hands off the cars!" My wife and I don't even touch the paint on our cars - let alone a stranger!!

Just to save you a google:

Ron Cadwell, Chief Executive Officer

"A veteran of the online industry, Ron Cadwell learned firsthand the challenges of running multiple businesses. As founder and chief executive officer of CWIE LLC, the parent company for Cavecreek Web Hosting, CCBill and DRM Networks, Ron has created a group of companies committed to providing innovative service solutions for online businesses.
The first company, Cavecreek was founded in 1996 and has grown to be one of the largest online hosting companies in the world. In the process of building CWIE, Ron realized that many budding Internet entrepreneurs were finding it difficult to obtain a Merchant Account for online sales by credit card. Identifying this need in the market, Ron launched CCBill in 1998. Today, CCBill is one of the top E-ticketing solution providers in the world, processing millions of transactions each year. In keeping with his entrepreneurial spirit, Ron created DRM Networks in 2001, a move that tapped into the online market's need for commerce-enabled Digital Rights Management and content delivery solutions."
Hey Lomag, any chance of you catching this guy?

BTW, I'm not sure but it looks like the copter and jet may not have been connected to the homeowner (even though he's likely to own one or more.) I'm betting that the pics were taken and posted by someone who took the tour of the home. They probably used the helicopter to get to and from the house and while the "tourist" was standing on the airport tarmac, the Gulfstream was just sitting there waiting to be photographed...

Hahah I wish!! If I had started a year or two prior to when I did I could have taken a ride on the Internet bubble and came out a milllionare just like most of the others did! Although many of them have nothing left in terms of their business but a few million dollars, or in most cases, many many millions of dollars is enough to last a while. Well... ofcourse not if you own 10 ferrari's like that guy, lol.

What is the term I?m looking for? Oh yeah, conspicuous consumption! Though I have to say the home theater decked out like the bridge of the Starship Enterprise is a bit over the top?
