I have to admit, I am usually turned off by "rich-guy buys everything opulence".
Remember the Perkins "sailboat" story from a week or two ago? I love sailboats and Perkins' new mega-toy didn't turn me on at all.
But this library does seem more like my kind of opulence ;). tres magnific!!
Sadly, owning a chandelier from a James Bond movie doesn't make you James Bond. It does not even make you an author of a James Bond movie script. Similar things go for the other stuff in the library...

Looks a bit like Rapture from Bioshock.
