BILL GATES – $127.48 MILLION, WASHINGTON
NET WORTH: $115 BILLION

It only fits that one of the world’s wealthiest personalities has the priciest and most extravagant home. With $115 billion of net worth, would you believe that Bill Gates only bought his Medina, Washington, estate for $2 million in 1988? Now, after seven years of renovation and $63 million of expenses, in 2018, his house is already worth $127.48 million. This only proves that real estate is one of the best investments there is.

As a tech genius, it is no surprise that Bill’s house is with high-tech details. Everyone is wearing a pin with a special chip with a high-tech sensor system that helps people who live there to monitor the room’s climate and lighting. The property is an earth-sheltered home built into the side of a hill with Douglas fir timbers, concrete foundation, stainless steel roof, and steel reinforcements several times sturdier than the minimums set by the local building code.
