the richest people in the world by the craziest most unique and sometimes useless houses these are the most expensive homes that billionaires own first up you know one of the biggest power couples Jay-Z and Beyonce had to go all out when they bought a house together I'm talking the highest priced home ever sold in California right off the coast of Malibu this thing looks straight out of space and since Jay-Z has a history being attacked on stage they needed the best security they could get and that's why they got bulletproof windows everywhere just to protect
them if you're a creep with the Drone you could see there four outdoor swimming pools though I'm not sure why they need all that when they have their own private beach this thing also has a full basketball court spa and gym altogether that makes this Mansion over 200 million that's more than Travis Scott's entire net worth this next house though wanted to take Jay-Z's title for the most expensive home sold cuz the developers listed this Tony Stark looking home for 500 million this place is the biggest modern home in the US 105,000 Square ft like
the fresh prince it's located in the hills of Bel Air for a project like this you'd assume they had a buyer lined up but no billionaires didn't really want to buy it cuz it's filled with some weird ass rooms like a room dedicated to jellyfish and another to Candy but it does have some cool stuff though like a whole ass nightclub a beauty salon five pools and an outdoor running track I mean you could live here completely isolated from the world even though the place seemed amazing no one was biting at that price but right
before the owners were about to go bankrupt they were saved by by the fashion NOA CEO Richard sagian worth 1.3 Bill he grabbed it for 141 million 359 million less than the original price brof fin has the deal of a lifetime but you'll never guess how much Richard Branson spent on buying an entire Island this Caribbean island is full of bizarre looking animals like flamingos and lemur it's also the perfect spot to practice his love for kite surfing and even though his company's called a virgin this place is so sick there's no way a baddy
would leave here as one there's more multiple Villas houses hundreds of employees to tend to your every need it's a gold diggers paradise and you can actually book the whole island for yourself for the low price of 105,000 a night only Mr Beast is going to be able to afford that but you're not going to believe how much he actually bought the island for since he bought it back in the late 1970s before prices skyrocketed it only cost him $180,000 clearly he's made some money back but there's no public figure for how much he spent
upgrading the island since then his head house is burned down and re built even more luxurious ones so it's got to be near the tens of millions if not hundreds of millions of dollars George Lucas's house wasn't as concerned with luxury cuz it's a film nerd's Paradise the Skywalker Ranch is one of the most beautiful places any billionaire owns it's got Vineyards mountain ranges and Rolling Hills that make you feel like you're in the Victorian era there's movie references all around the ranch like a statue of Yoda Charlie chaplain's hat and Kane in a new
drawing of John Lin but the main draw of this Ranch is that it actually houses the entire sound division of Lucas film which is used for most of the Star Wars and Indiana Jones films George found that he couldn't get the right sound out of a rented studio so he decided to create his own they can mix design and do any post- production at the Skywalker rench and when the films are finished they've got a huge movie theater with three story tall LED screens to Premiere them they've also got a huge research library and tons
of books and materials for sound designers to use since Skywalker Ranch actually is a ranch they produce their own wine olive oil and even wag you beef and if you happen to get a little too wine drunk and cause a fire they actually have their own fire department ready to respond to any emergencies I guess that's a cost of being so secluded with all these features Skywalker rench comes out to a whopping 100 million who knew Georgia had that much money I guess letting Disney ruin Star Wars was worth it for him in the long
run George Lucas isn't quite royalty though like the British Monarchy if you're a Brit you know everyone is always complaining about how much of their taxes go to the royal family and once you learn how much their main Palace is worth you might get why they need your money cuz just on the inside there's 775 rooms a private doctor's office police station and over 25,000 bottles of wine in their wine seller my God there's also secret tunnels to a bunker in case the whole world goes into Mad Max mode apparently connects to all the main
houses that the Royals live in like this one in the princess quarters their Ballroom can hold over 600 guests alone and almost every American president has been there for all of this Buckingham Palace is worth over $5 billion that pretty much makes every senior member of the royal family a billionaire the palace is one of the most expensive mansions in the world but there's other Rich dudes all around the world not just in the west like mukes Amani in India he's worth over $11 billion so he went all out when he bought a house in
the heart of Mumbai it's a tower called antilia and it's got over 27 stories reaching 568 ft in the air I mean look at this thing and it's even bigger on the inside there's six lower levels with space just for 168 cars in the top four floor are all dedicated to Vertical Gardens it's got a 50-seat movie theater an ice room with artificial snow and crystal chandeliers everywhere this house is so big they need 600 servants just to maintain the damn place it's also designed to be able to withstand a magnitude a earthquake even though
it looks straight up like a Jango Tower waiting to fall all this together makes some Bon's residents worth over $2 billion but at least we know who owns it one of the craziest mansions in the world has kept its owner secret although we might have a good idea of who it is it's a bit of an older one with Georgian style architecture but it's still extremely nice on the inside and has Unholy amounts of land even though the pool in the outside is massive it's never really used since the place is mostly uninhabited it's believed
that this place is owned by one of Putin's closest advisers Andre GF he's worth around 5 billion from selling fertilizer yeah a dud know for selling cow once his place kind of a let down I was hoping it was Tupac's Place Bill Gates is a bit secretive about his house too so much so that a tour of his house went for 35,000 at a charity auction and even though it's super futuristic on the inside it actually looks just like a cabin on the outside which makes sense in the woods of Washington Bill calls it xanadoo
2.0 named after Citizen Kane's fictional Mansion his vision for the house was to have one of the first Smart Homes any guest of the house can change each room's lighting music and climate via touchpad devices throughout the place there's $80,000 worth of touch screens that can display artwork or anything else you can imagine through the front and the bottom of the house there's a stream with salmon and trout so Bill can fish after pulling an all night coding session it's also home to a giant library with the $130 million book which is crazy cuz that's
literally the price of his entire Mansion for Tiger Woods you'd expect about as much as his Mansion costs as one of the richest athletes in the world he made sure he can work on his golf game even when he's at home tiger Mansion has a four-hole course in the backyard complete with a short game area and a video Studio where you can analyze his swing he's also got an oxygen therapy room whatever that means and an outdoor track cuz we all know how much sprinting you do in golf but the Florida Island itself that he
lives on Jupiter Island is hella expensive only 900 people live there and he's in an even more exclusive neighborhood within it so he had to put down 54 mil on it and like tiger Larry Ellison also needs time to escape from the media so he built a house he felt would be the perfect mix of tranquility and harmony with nature it sounds corny but the house actually looks pretty cool it's inspired by a 16th century Japanese Emperor's Palace and it definitely shows through its Bath House dope Japanese Gardens and tea house he dropped 70 million
just to feel a little Zen and I didn't think you could feel Zen in New York but IA Renard definitely tried Renard wanted to find an area where he doesn't have to hear all that damn traffic so we ended up paying 248 million for a New York estate in the Hamptons but estimates say it might be worth 500 mil now this huge mansion has 12 chimneys for some reason but that's not the only thing that's excessive cuz dude spent 150k on his hot tub alone this is also the only home I've ever heard of that
has its own power plant I guess in case there's some sort of nuclear apocalypse and apparently he's not the only one concerned with that cuz Mark Zuckerberg's also prepared he straight up out a Hawaii doomsday City just in case for years he's been buying up over 14 acres of land to build a compound of mansions tree houses and tunnels under the surface is a 5,000 ft shelter with a blast resistant door and a lifetime supply of energy and food I guess we got to become friends with Zuck if we want to survive the apocalypse all
you got to do is pretend to be a lizard like the rest of them but Angelina Jolie and Brad Pit aren't worried about all that when they were married they went in together on this lavish French mansion on the property there's old houses dating back to the 17th century it also for some reason has a recording studio where Pink Floyd recorded part of the wall but the real reason they purchased it was for the 500 Acres of Vineyards it makes some of the highest quality rosé wine and continues to make money year after year so
so when they got divorced and Angelina sold off 50% of the place pit was pissed it said in her contract that selling was off limits and he sued for every penny I'm talking a $250 million lawsuit cuz they originally bought the place for 160 million but the winery itself has generated over $500 million but to the Saudi family worth over 1.4 trillion those are peasant numbers cuz they own multiple palaces worth over 500 million inside of one they got a private suit for all types of exotic animals and since Saudi Arabia is a boiling hot
desert they've got snow rooms to experience winter they also have their own underground beaches and caves inside of the palace talk about not having to leave your house ever since Saudi Arabia isn't as beautiful in itself they have to add things like that but France has natural beauty so the Villa once owned by the king of Belgium can give it a run for its money it's got 50 acres of lush Gardens a view of the Mediterranean Sea and surrounding Hills in a huge Greenhouse it's also been the backdrop for some classic films like one by
Alfred Hitchcock valued at over 750 million Jay-Z and Beyonce couldn't even afford it it's owned by Russian billionaire Mikel prerov and I don't know why he ran for president against Putin in 2012 when he could have just chilled here man is lucky he didn't get whacked even though Taylor Swift is Rich enough to fly a private jet from bathroom to bathroom her house isn't exactly as large as you expect she does have seven Other Mansions to her name but she paid for her biggest Beverly Hills mansion in cash which is even more crazy when you
learned how much it cost previously owned by film producer Samuel Goldwin this place has the status of a historical landmark making it an absolute headache to renovate Taylor actually wants to restore to its exact Glory from 1934 where it held parties for Hollywood's biggest stars so it's got a whole Great Gatsby theme to it but it also includes an Italian pool tennis court and screening room costing Swift a slight 25 mil even though music makes a lot of money some football players make even more so after Leno Messi signed his Miami contract making his career
earnings over 1.6 billion it didn't surprise anyone when he purchased the largest place of any football player ever and here he's living better than anyone else on this list I mean he has his own private island shape just like his logo since it's in the middle of the ocean there's helicopter pads super yacht docks and a soccer pitch to keep his game pristine alog together Messi's Private Island comes up to 100 Mil but at the moment it's just a concept
