Most Expensive Items in the World
Millionaires and billionaires sometimes have the option to buy rare or limited goods within their insane price range. These are some of the most costly purchases you can make if you have enough dough. Which one of these items would you buy? Feel free to leave your comments down below.
While it's not as large as Bezos's, it took 3 years to design, and was made with some of the finest pricey materials in 100 feet of pure gold.
Mumbai, India is home to the most expensive house in the world, owned by Mukesh Ambani, the richest Indian at $115 billion. Some popular amenities include: 3 helipads, 9 elevators, a home theater, etc.
Constructed in 1902, this mansion has been passed down to several big names in the billionaire industry: King Leopold II, for instance. The history behind its use dates back all the way to World War II when it served as a hospital. Today, it houses Russian billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov.
I'm sure we're all a bit familiar with Leonardo da Vinci, most notably his painting of the Mona Lisa. Auctioned in 2017, seller Dmitry Rybolovlev sold this Vinci masterpiece at Christie's in New York, but later on accused Swiss art broker Yves Bouvier of fraud by overcharging him $1 billion.
Another tangible painting on the market for investors. This 1890s painting by Paul Cezanne was purchased by Qatar in 2011. Not much is really known about the artwork.
Bezos's second appearance on this list shows just how much of a mogul he is. A lot of real estate is credited with this man's name, but by far, his most expensive is the Beverly Hills House, previously owned by David Geffen.
It seems as though a lot of paintings take the cake in rich value. Art collector Ronald Lauder purchased this beauty at the Neue Gallery in New York in 2006, and has been in his ownership ever since.
More than 110 carats of diamonds were encrusted into this magnificent piece of jewelry, highly crafted by a landslide. Laurence Graff, the chairman of Gruff diamonds, introduced this gemstone to the world in 2014, and many have been in awe of its unique design.
Cars cost a lot of money in general, but this isn't your average vehicle. Let's just say you won't find very many of these in your local car dealership. This is a one-of-a-kind, state-of-the-art investment that an anonymous buyer at an auction in Monterey bought in 2018.
Designed to run for 10,000 years, this doomsday device was purchased by none other than Jeff Bezos. There really isn't any other information about its existence, so we'll leave it at it.
