Couples do need time out to rest and recuperate, or have together time - away from the stress. If you're a celebrity, getting away from the paparazzi is an additional necessity, that requires a sizable investment.

Angelina Jolie is a rainbow family advocate, following chanteuse Josephine Baker and fellow actress Mia Farrow. Where will Angelina settle with her expanding brood?

France - at the tune of $60 million dollars.

Angelina and Brad globe trot. Their work demands, as well as the army of intrepid paparazzi, add logic to the couple's collection of homes. According to some reports (E! and The Daily Mail), their latest splurge is Chateau Miraval, a 1000 acre pre-Roman estate with 35 bedrooms, that includes a vineyard, 13 varieties of olives, 20 fountains, aqueducts, his and her gyms, billiard room, indoor pool, banquet hall and a moat.

"Magnificent cascading stone-walled terraces have been replanted with 13 different varieties of olives, and water is everywhere on the sprawling estate—20 fountains, aqueducts and a stream that runs through hidden tunnels, passes through the moat and fills the lake.

Except for the ponies and goats grazing in the nearby fields, "the house is surrounded by a forest so they'll have total privacy, which is exactly what they're after," the source tells E! "No one will ever be able to get pictures of them relaxing at home, it's just impossible." (E! News)

As for the rest of us? We can only dream.

If you've got it, why not flaunt it?
