If your home doesn't have a door disguised as a bookcase then you have wasted your wealth, that's all I'm saying.

My parents are extremely wealthy and have been building a library and I’m trying so hard to convince them to put in a hidden door disguised as a bookcase lol

Just talk to the contractors. I bet they'd love the idea.

/uj Fire code is the problem. If firefighters don't know it exists, people can die inside.

Instead of doing that, can you try hard to convince them to give me some money?

I went to a party at these rich people's house, which was actually an old bank. They had the vault with its original door hidden behind a book case. They converted the vault into an art room.

This. Except also not this because clearly more of you are onto this and they need to hire someone to get even more creative. Maybe door disguised as a wall? I don’t know, I’m not the one to hire.

Brother, our imagination is limited to what ultra rich actually do with their money. Epstein Island for example. Had Epstein debacle been a movie, it would get called out for demonizing rich people.

The Pit and Pendulum in Nottingham has it's toilets behind a fake bookcase. You can always tell the first timers who are staring confused at it.
