Or a REALLY nice house? Maybe someone here is a millionaire-I never have, but I think it'd be an awesome experience to stay in one for a weekend. If so, how did you get into one? Was it an interesting experience?

Many times. But the most interesting thing I ever seen was going in a garage where the car would lower down and it turned into a 360 degree underground automatic car wash.

I've been in Graceland. I've been other nice houses, but nothing I'd consider a mansion.

I used to babysit my mom's friend's kids. Her friend's husband is a millionaire, and while they don't live in a mansion, they have a very nice house

I once parked my muddy wheels in his driveway once because there was construction going in that cul de sac.

Coto de Caza right outside of Newport Beach (California)....gated community that is nothing but mansions.
We had to go there to meet our wedding photographer one day and as we went inside, we were just floored and had that "We're not in Kansas anymore" look in our eyes.
Marble floors, three stories (from what I remember)...home was probably worth 4 million dollars.

Yep, part of my school was in a Mansion so I spent many hours there. I also had my wedding reception in one.

Back when I was in elementary school, one of my classmates was the child of a land developer/construction magnate who pretty much owned half of the city's surrounding suburbs at the time. I do not remember why, but there was an occasion where the entire class was to have an event in their house.
It was improbably huge.
Come to think of it, pretty much everyone's parents were Land Development Moguls or Lawyers at that school. Except mine.
In hindsight, it must have been a pretty heavy burden on my grandfather to pay that tuition for 5 years.

I did a ride along with one of my company's field technicians several months ago. We went to one house that I would say qualified as a mansion. The crawl space behind the bedroom in which a great deal of the fiber was located was so big it could have served as a bedroom. The whole time I melt thinking "Probably works for the mob."

I used to install toilet paper roll and towel racks in bathrooms. I never worked in a mansion, but I went to plenty of big nice houses. I was in awe at some of those places. Anything bigger than a townhouse is too big for me to want to live in.

Yeah, when Clinton was still governor of Arkansas, I visited the governor's mansion.

Well I actually I went to party at Kim.com's mansion several years ago.
And by that I mean I tagged along with someone who was invited and they didn't mind me coming with them.

Yes, got invited to a friends house only to find a freaking basketball court in his basement. I honestly thing the basement alone was bigger than the house I grew up in.

Does Disney World's Haunted Mansion count? I went there once.
