Hollywood naughty with a capital ‘N’ Kim Kardashian and her hubby singer Kanye West with a small ‘h’ have decided to sell their lavish Bel Air mansion. Why are they doing it? Because they want to shift to a swankier place.

But the thing is that the couple wants to sell the house for $20m, which, compared to how much they bought it for, is more than double the price. No, no, it is not greed. It’s downright stupidity. The two are weak at maths.
