What sorts of people live on 'Billionaires Row'?
Are these tech executives, trust fund babies, people in the entertainment industry? Thanks! Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Are you talking about a place in San Francisco, or confusing us with Los Angeles? I've never heard of "Billionaire's Row," and we don't have many people up here in entertainment... please let me know, and I'd be happy to move this to the LA forum!
Or if this is what you're referring to - Google Earth Community: San Francisco's Billionaire's Row - the people listed there are mostly tech gurus and old money. |

I heard someone whose wealth comes from University of Phoenix bought and/or built the city's most expensive mansion (for those that exist) there.

What about Grace Slick, The dude who moved he and his wife near a police station, now are divorced (?) musicians, George Lucas, aren't they in entertainment? I thought there were many 'stars' in Marin---Robin Williams as well?

We have our share of celebs around here, especially when you include local athletes. But when the OP said "people in the entertainment industry," I thought maybe he was thinking of L.A. - since we're not really known for that! |

Robin Williams lives here? Shame. That guy has always been the biggest turnoff for me. I never thought he was the least bit funny or entertaining. |
