So let's take a high end runner team, we're talking 300 Karma, enough nuyen to fund a small army to retake the Papal states...you get the idea.

Now let's build their permanent residence where they hang out and try to live the life that they have earned for themselves. What do they do, where do they go?

My initial thought was a permanent high or luxury lifestyle on an orbital platform--great for the non-awakened members of the team and it cuts down on the possible ways for enemies to seek their revenge.

What are the benefits and hindrances to this lifestyle? Does anyone have a suggestion for a better place to hole up and retire, weighing both quality of life and security of life since these runners are bound to have tweaked several noses and their friends may not always be able to openly or even covertly protect them.
