Paul Allen takes the 46th position of the richest person in the world. Another Microsoft co-founder, he has a net worth of $15.8 billion. He was born in Seattle, Washington on January 21, 1953.
He can afford to buy himself basically anything in the world and has a good eye for luxury items. He owns several yachts as well as a private jet, the Mig 29. He has a great credit report which is owing to his clever business investments and shrewd decisions he has made.
BONO – Kingdom Come, Estimated $22 Million
The lead rock singer of U2 and one of the most influential and wealthy musicians in the world knows a thing or two about comfort. With a net worth of over $900, we are sure that BONO isn’t paying much attention to price tags.
When the winner of 22 Grammy Awards was in the market for a yacht, he chose a 198-foot-long “Kingdom Come” bearing more of a luxury hotel look than that of a ship. The yacht includes a master suite, a huge deck, a marble bathroom, a hot tub, and gold-plated furniture. Why sail in anything but the best when you’re one of the best?
John Travolta – Boeing 707, Estimated $4.5 Million
The star of “Saturday Night Fever” and “Grease”, John Travolta, is a sucker for aviation. He loves airplanes so much that he had a private airport built in his $12 million home in Florida. He has a pilot’s license which allows him to fly any of his 4 airplanes. That is one expensive collection well worth over $50 million.
But for the highly successful actor who has a net worth of $170 million, the hobby is not a burden on his bank account. John donated this plane, the Boeing 707 to the Historical Aircraft Restoration Society. We love John not only for his talent but also for all of the charity work that he does.
Calvin Klein – Vantage, Estimated $28 Million
The iconic American fashion designer Calvin Klein has a net worth of $720 million. He knows a thing or two about fashion and his yacht shows it.
He throws some pretty extravagant parties on his mega yacht, vantage. The yacht has six cabins, a jacuzzi, relaxation pads, and onboard barbecues. Basically, anything that is needed for a killer party.
Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson – Phocea, $200K Per Week
Prior to 2004 and the launch of Athens by Royal Huisman, the Phocea yacht was the world’s largest sailing yacht. It was built at the Toulon Naval Dockyard in 1976 and later by Alain Colas. Tom Hanks and his wife, amongst other celebrities, love renting it out for a romantic getaway.
Tom Hanks has made a lot of money since he first started acting in 1979. His films have taken in more than $4.5 billion at North American box offices and more than $9.0 billion worldwide, making him the fourth highest-grossing actor in North America. So when the couple wanted to rent a yacht for $200K a week, Tom’s $350 million net worth could afford it.
