The Dark Side Of Billionaire Philanthropy
<p>20 miles south of downtown San Francisco rests a lavish place. 98 rooms, a reflecting pool, and gardens that were designed largely from Versailles garden arrangement. The Carolands mansion was a lovely place and so many cars are lined up in front of the gates on a weekly basis.</p>
<p>They’re not there for charity. They are waiting in hopes of getting a ticket to receive a tour of this place. You have to apply at least a month in advance if you want to even get a chance to be considered.</p>
<p>And given that the Carolands are only open two hours per week, getting a ticket is akin to getting the golden ticket to see Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. It’s a lottery.</p>
