I guarantee you have never seen a "tear-down" house like this one. A Minnesota company is disassembling an immense home in the prestigious Lake Minnetonka area west of Minneapolis.
At the company's link are several pages of photos and a walk-through video.
The company saves money by inviting the public to go directly to the home to harvest materials; what remains is transported to their warehouse and store for resale.

This massive structure is filled with room after room of salvageable building materials in pristine condition, ranging from sprawling kitchens and custom cabinetry to a unique sauna and indoor pool slide.

Ownership of mansion and cars important to demonstrate his success, build confidence of his investors?
Another previous owner Denny Hecker. Much baggage comes with house...
Recent book on the mansions of Lake Minnetonka laments the teardown of architecturally significant ones to subdivide the land and build multiple smaller homes. MUCH better to tear down the tacky ones, such as this.
Commenters above say it is morally bad to build homes suitable for posh entertaining. What do they have against people working in the catering trade? What do they have against landscapers? Why say that people who hire the members of my family should instead not build, but give the resources instead to people who don't work?
I don't understand.
