Taylor Swift may have out waspy-ed the Kennedys buy buying a home in Westerly, Rhode Island for 17million bucks in cash. Seeing as she bought in Rhode Island in cash the seller must have requested un-marked non sequential bills. The house is in the Watch Hill neighborhood of Westerly, Rhode Island a working class/multi-millionaire enclave in southern RI.
Watch Hill was discovered by the super rich of the 19th century and the elite of the Victorian era built "summer cottages" on the bluffs. The cottages were in actuality summer mansions. Rhode Island in the 19th century was the Monaco of the US. Everyone who was anyone needed to have a summer home on the Rhode Island shore.
It had been rumored that Ms Swift wanted to buy a home near the Kennedy compound in Hyannisport on Cape Cod but if a Kennedy matriarch doesn't like you, you might as well forget it. Ask Darryl Hannah. By buying in Rhode Island Taylor Swift has upped the anti. She will find her money and fame won't help her in Westerly with either high society or the locals. Both groups will find her more annoying than as an asset. So Taylor buy an old Volvo station wagon and ride a bike and maybe you will fit in.
