THERE are a number of things that delight Moby, once the ultimate downtown New York musician, about his castle in the Hollywood Hills...

But now, while he keeps a small apartment in Little Italy, he has moved to Los Angeles, to a castle on three acres with a stone wall, a Disney-esque gatehouse and a kidney-shaped pool....

Moby paid just under $4 million for the house last year and estimates he has put another $2 million into its restoration...

As the money started rolling in, he started buying extravagant properties. In 2005, he bought four floors of an Upper West Side building for $4.5 million, but got “really lonely” and sold the apartment a few years later, moving back downtown...

In 2003, he bought a 9,000-square-foot house overlooking the Hudson River in Kent Cliffs, about an hour north of Manhattan...

Moby was always a product of connecticut's upper middle class. He likes to talk about his "poor" childhood, but his parents came from money & his sensibility has always been bourgeois.

Hard to believe moby makes that much selling his music. investments, i suspect, maybe a trust fund in the background.
