Ah yes, during the global pandemic. We are reminded that some people are still buying huge houses. Probably the same people that are staying inside. Or throwing Corona parties. 3 cheers for the bourgeoisie!!!

It's called Matterport and it's revolutionary. Me and my fellow insurance claims examiners use it to investigate claims. It's fantastic. Zoom in, zoom out, look up and down, the ability to walk through a home into every area and the cost to do it is minimal.

Ok Elon
