Jeff Bezos |Beverly Hills, $165 Million

It would be hard to imagine that Jeff Bezos started his business empire out of a garage. Now, people would have no excuse to become successful so long as they have a set goal. The wealthy entrepreneur is said to be the first person in history to have a wealth exceeding $200 billion. To give you perspective, his net worth is equal to the combined GDPs of both Ethiopia and Kuwait.

Amazon is one of the biggest tech companies in the world, and this multi-billion dollar venture is still being handled by its founder, the one and only, Jeff Bezos. Bezos made an extraordinary move and paid a whopping $165 million for a Beverly Hills estate that would go down as one of the priciest home purchases in California’s history. DreamWorks co-founder David Geffen formerly owned the property. We can just imagine the amount of property insurance for this estate!
