When we were kids, we believed that a cool mill was THE most money a human being could have – but times have changed and so has the bar. Now, in the age of multimillionaires and influencer salaries – it’s not that outlandish for people to have cashed in at least six zeros. Plus, the homes we thought the rich lived in? Well, while many of them are built beautifully,  they’re definitely not the Scrooge-McDuck-style mansions we once expected. Want to see ’em for yourself? Here’s what kind of home $1 million can get you in Alberta.
