Good one.
Always amazes me how rich celebs end up bankrupting themselves. Is it just due to lack of brain or something.

Where would they live?
I have no doubt in my mind that the good people who want places to be open like the UK would be more than happy to let them stay on their land, and fund their ongoing stay.

Migrant workers from Romania and Bulgaria numbered 141,000 at the end of June, a rise of nearly 26 per cent on the 112,000 recorded at the end of March. The figure was up 35 per cent year-on-year.
Commentators said the rise foreshadowed how nationals from the two former Eastern Bloc countries would come to Britain in even greater numbers when they gain access to this country’s labour market on New Year’s Day.
Ministers have repeatedly refused to put a figure on the likely influx, though ambassadors for the two countries told MPs earlier this year that they expected 35,000 more migrants to come here in 2014. The figures published today by the Office for National Statistics showed that 37,000 extra Romanian and Bulgarian workers have arrived since June last year, indicating that citizens of the two countries are pre-empting the removal of restrictions in the new year.
The steep rise did not appear to have been caused by seasonal fluctuations because in the same March-June period in 2012 numbers rose by just 7,000.
Sir Andrew Green, the chairman of MigrationWatch, which has estimated that 50,000 Bulgarians and Romanians will arrive every year for the next five years, said: “This increase of just over a third in Romanian and Bulgarian workers in the UK over the past year is a sharp increase on the previous trend.
Loads of room to spare! (Still!)
