Just last year former President Barack Obama made a speech in South Africa where he criticized wealth inequality, stating: “There’s only so much you can eat. There’s only so big a house you can have. There’s only so many nice trips you can take. I mean, it’s enough.”

  Then he bought a $14.8m beachfront house.

  The Obama family is dropping nearly $15m on the 7,000-square foot, 29-acre house in Martha’s Vineyard.
