Typically, we try not to indulge endlessly in hypothetical scenarios. But recently we couldn’t help ourselves when the real estate brokerage company, Redfin, crunched the numbers on the total value of each and every home in various cities and then cross-checked it with Forbes’ list of the world’s billionaires to see who could, theoretically, afford to buy a whole city’s worth of homes. The results are, well, interesting.
