Who hasn’t forgotten about a house? Who hasn’t had the producers filming their life scout a location within their own real estate portfolio and then thought, Oh, right. Yes. That old thing. Sure. We’ll go there.
Come to think of it, who hasn’t patted down their breast pockets and muttered to themselves, “It’s around here somewhere, my three-bedroom, two-bath, 2,400-square-foot paradise. I put it right here this morning”? Who hasn’t briefly wondered if sundowning was coming for them early while trying to remember where they last saw their hacienda-style nine-bedroom with the little studio ADU and pool house out back?
When you remember this is a typical experience that we’ve all had, you realize the revelation that Kris Jenner “kind of forgot” her condo in Beverly Hills existed—as revealed in the second-season premiere of Hulu’s The Kardashians—isn’t so crazy. It’s the one, for those following along at home, that she uses as a “gift-wrapping station” for Christmas.
Khloé Kardashian, who recently moved into a $17 million custom-built home in Hidden Hills, which is also next door to her mother’s new primary residence, was the one who got to point out the absurdity of Jenner’s negligence. “I can’t wait to be wealthy enough I forget I have properties somewhere,” Kardashian said. Putting on a British accent for added posh effect, she said, “Oh, I have a condo in Beverly Hills! I forgot about that!”
Yes, sometimes you wish you were wealthy enough to forget some real estate in your portfolio, and sometimes you wish you were wealthy enough to have a gift-wrapping condo, and sometimes you wish you were wealthy enough to have one (1) bit of real estate at all. These are all part of the American dream, and you know how easy it is to forget a dream.
