Is it just me, or does it seem odd that the man had $3.2Million dollars (or 22.3M yuan, whatever), yet he chose to live in an apartment?

I guess. But this guy was a Government official. The least he could have done was buy himself a modest house or something.

But then I look at where it was (Southwest China). There isn't much down there...
