The main reason I posted that article is because it has few pictures of inside some rooms, and the overall aerial view.
The original asking price and the one that the house sold for few years later is just funny; that was the main tag line.
Celine is in mourning and money is the last thing on her mind when you're mourning someone you love. The funerals in Montreal for Rene were like the Queen's Elizabeth crowning ceremony. Celine thought that the province of Quebec would foot the entire bill for the funerals because her and Rene are loved by the entire city (Montreal), province (Quebec), country (Canada), continent (America), Las Vegas (Nevada, USA), the entire world (planet Earth), our galaxy (Milky Way Galaxy). I found it quite amusing, when Quebec taxpayers were asked to pay for Rene's funerals.

The American (anonymous) who bought the bungalow, wants to use it as a summer cottage, for couple weeks a year partying/vacationing during hurricane season.
There was no way that he would pay over $72.5 million for a small vacation shack. $38.5 mil was plenty fair, as far as my eyes can see.
Besides, he doesn't want to spend fifty weeks every year just to clean the dirt, get rid of the ants and spider webs, do the dishes, laundry, kill the rats with poison and traps, make the beds, buy the groceries, gardening, maintain the car's fleet, get the garbage out to the road every week, cut the grass, water the plants, clean the swimming pools, get the mold out, change the filters, put gas in the lawnmower, change the burned light bulbs, secure the HDMI cables of all the TVs, program the remote controls, do the plumbing repairs, ...brief pay enormous sums to hire a staff of cooks, gardeners, house caretakers, babysitters, bodyguards, audio/visual technical scientists, ... and pay all the taxes on top of that; property, city, water, utilities, electric bills, beach cleanup bills, telephone bills, cable TV bills, Internet bills, ...
That anonymous American; who do you think he/she might be...somebody from the Donald's entourage? I wouldn't be surprised one bit. :b
* Did you watch Rene's (Celine's husband) funerals last year? Me neither, I only say couple photographs, and read the article.
