After years of Americans pointing and laughing at other country’s misfortune, it’s almost enjoyable watching Hollywood burn.

Don’t worry for poor Paris Hilton, she’ll make millions on the insurance.

Maybe another gender reveal party caused it again…

Nothing enjoyable about it. It's fascinating and awe-inspiring but I'm not that low that I'd revel in misfortune of hundreds of people I know nothing about. Also, I don't like watching pretty things burn.
I just always wondered about the insurance of houses in these areas because they have always been high-risk and insurance companies know that. Like come on...if redwood has been growing there for centuries, wildfires anywhere in the area are hardly a surprise. Everyone living there must be aware of the risk. Same with earthquakes.

@CrazyMusicLover I’m not enjoying watching redwoods burn, I’m enjoying watching villas burn.

Perhaps the ignored people of tent city will make space for them.

@DazzaTheHutt I meant pretty houses. I mentioned redwoods as the evidence that it's a wildfire area as redwoods evolutionary developed specific bark that protects them against fire. People can't blame this on climate etc. wildfires have been normal there for centuries. That's why I'm curious about the insurance conditions there because it's a high-risk area.

@CrazyMusicLover It depends upon the insurer I suppose and what insurable risk they decide to cover or not.
