looking through the photos, I can see several fabrics and fittings clearly inspired by several oneworld lounges.

I would have absolutely no shame copping the style of the Qantas F lounges for the Melbourne room in my theoretical Points Guy house . However, I guarantee there will be no copying of the CCR bathrooms for anything .

Although I wouldn't claim to be a Hamptons expert by any means -- Texas is so far away! -- I can see from the map that the house is a full mile "north of the Highway" and several miles from Sag Harbor. It wouldn't work for anyone (like me) interested in logging some serious beach time. Or for anyone with children. But I rather gather that that's not the targeted demographic anyway.
I respect anyone who can start and run a successful business. It's just that I find the blog nearly unreadable.
Very evidently many others don't share my opinion.

Can't wait to have a monthly MS meeting at this house with TPG sharing with all of us his secrets on how he gets 5x for his gift card and money orders MS activities all with free booze and no ticket to attend. You know, kind of like an FU to FTUs you guys...
Ok, I am laughing now...

Meantime, I always hopped on to his Periscope live chats and pressed for what % of his points earnings come from MS... alas, he never answered

I doubt any of the titans do MS. They don't need to because income from regular sources pays for travel. And talking about details of MS just scares off advertisers and affiliates.
