rush_limbaugh.jpgI have really enjoyed the series on the Monday of each month dealing with Living near the Stars.  We have looked at several stars living right here in Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton.  We even have looked at several millionaires who live in Fort Lauderdale.  Now, I usually don't get into politics but I have to go there today.  I love to listen to Rush Limbaugh just for entertainment value alone some days.  He cracks me up.  He can be so out there and the quote "Talent on loan from God" makes me laugh.  But he lives right here in Palm Beach.

I found a great little article in the Sun Sentinel this morning about a movie by Catherine Gray titled Millionaires True Stories.  It's all about 5 local every day people in Fort Lauderdale and how they have amassed millions.  These people are regular Joe's just like you and me.  The only difference is that they are worth millions and we are not.  So let's take a look at who they are and hopefully you will go to see the movie at the Gateway Theatre on Saturday.

andy roddick.jpgWelcome back to the 4th in the Living near the Stars series. Today we are going to look at one of my favorite tennis stars. Of course I am a little biased since Andy Roddick lives right here in Boca Raton. Andy Roddick has been playing tennis in Boca Raton since he moved here with his family in 1992 from Austin, Texas. He has had great success in the tennis world and I am sure he will continue to win and bring success back to Boca Raton. 

Andy lives in a moderate sized home. It is so nice to see that stardom and fame has not gone to his head. His 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is located near the wonderful Boca Pointe Country Club and the Mizner Trail Golf Club. His home has an in ground pool and spa. Ok, so there has to be some perks to fame and fortune around to remind us that he is just a little more than a regular Joe. According to celebritydetective.com, his home is worth approximately $350,000. He loves to stay in town and hang out in the sun. When he isn’t here in Boca Raton or playing on the tennis circuit, he has recently purchased a not so modest home in his birthplace of Austin. I guess we can share him for a little bit. 

But the moral of this story is that you can live near the stars and not have top ay a fortune to do so. Let me show you how.

Talk to you later,
Christine
