Derek Jeter is rich, bitch

Instead of building a new 31,000 square-foot waterfront home on Davis Island in Florida, he could only afford 30,875 square feet (pic here). What a loser! From the New York Post:

Derek Jeter celebrated Thanksgiving by showing girlfriend Minka Kelly around the palatial home he's building in Tampa, Fla. The Yankee hero gave the stunning actress and his parents a tour of his 30,875-square- foot, seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom waterfront home on Davis Island. His dad, Dr. Charles Jeter, and his mother, Dorothy, were spotted checking out the property's 6-foot-tall "privacy" fence, which will keep prying eyes away.

Construction on the house, dubbed "St. Jetersburg" by locals, is expected to be finished next summer. What will be Tampa's biggest mansion, comprising two stories built over three lots, will boast a pair of three-car garages and entertainment, billiard and memorabilia rooms.

A spy said: "He was proudly showing off his new house to Minka and his parents. It's so big, they could all have a wing each.With the construction workers off for Thanksgiving, it was the perfect time to have a look at the house, plan with Minka how it will be decorated and what furniture they need. But they're going need a lot of furniture to fill it."

If I were dating Minka Kelly, I wouldn't need "a lot of furniture to fill" my 30,000 square-foot mansion. I'd just need a king size bed and a closet full of lube and muzzles. Now, some people might be jealous of Derek's wealth, fame, and Rolodex of beautiful women -- but not me. Why? Because I know something he'll never know: what a hearty Thanksgiving meal of Top Ramen and mayonnaise tastes like. Mmmm, poverty.
