Buy Joe Johnson’s House, Live Like A Baller

Always wanted to live like an NBA player?  Here’s your chance!  For just a shade under $5 million (and $46,000 in annual taxes) you can be the proud owner of Joe Johnson’s Atlanta estate (to call it a “house” is to call his Ford F650 Super Truck a “car”).  The 1.7-acre property comes complete with a variety of conveniences that range from standard to completely unnecessary, including (but certainly not limited to) wireless internet/cable TV access, a hot tub, a 4+ car garage, and a lighted tennis court.  The home itself is massive; it spans 13,822 square feet and features 7 beds, 9 baths, walk-in closets, an exercise room, a small movie theater, and a media room.

As if all that isn’t enough, I’m sure JJ would be so kind to let you keep some of the memorabilia on the walls, too.  From Estately.com

Wait a minute, is that a… barber shop?

If I could scrape up the $900,000 needed to make the down payment I’d buy this pad and let it pay for itself.  I’d give haircuts, sell memberships to my workout facility, and screen exclusive movie showings.  I’d also start a record label, charge a cover to get into my bar, and list the aforementioned memorabilia on Ebay.

Or maybe I wouldn’t.  According to the listing, this place doesn’t get school bus service.  How the hell am I supposed to get the kids I don’t have to school without a bus?  Sorry, but this is a deal breaker.
