I don't know how many have seen this or if it has been posted before, but I would consider these homes not to be ostentatious or a cause of concern that the Prophets are siphoning off tithing money for their own benefit.

I have no problems with the Presidents home ... what do the apostles homes look like? I really have no idea, I am not trying to be argumentative, but I really have no idea?

That was fascinating to look at. Thanks so much for the link. Those houses definitely don't look like palaces. lol.
Some of them I have seen before, but didn't know presidents of the church had lived in them (with the obvious exception of BY's winter home in St. George, the Beehive House, and the Hotel Utah). I lived in the same building Pres Benson lived in at 777 E, but in the 1980s. In fact, I was living there because I was a live-in companion for a beautiful lady who had once been Pres Benson's secretary when he was in Washington D.C. Very small world, indeed.

I found this, don't know how creditable it is. The music is annoying...

My bro & sister in-law live in Heber. There is a local rumor that Pres. Monson owns a very large home in Midway, but I don't really know.

I think it is not good to post the addresses on the internet; these men deserve their privacy. Some of the houses in that link looked rather extravagant for just a husband and wife to live in but, like one of the comments said, many of them worked at well-paying jobs before they were called to be general authorities.

And some of them were likely the homes in which they raised their families (and while employed before becoming GA's).

True. I did think about that.
