Many people know they have really made it when they buy a property that is more than $1 Million. It’s the status symbol that they have worked hard for and can now tell their friends and family about.

Well what if you just bought a $100 Million property? How good would you feel then? My guess is that you would feel pretty damn good!

Here are 5 properties you can buy if you had the pocket change lying around:

#1 – Fleur de Lys – Beverly Hills – Price $125 Million

It’s no wonder why this huge mansion took five years to build; it is more than 45,000 square feet in size and is modelled almost exactly like Louis XIV’s palace in Versailles, France. It has a screening room capable of seating 50 people and a garage that will easily fit in 9 cars. The library is also packed with first edition books worth a lot of money. Continue Reading

It must be a good feeling mustn’t it? To be the richest person in the World!

That is what Bill Gates wakes up to every single morning. As of February 2009 he was still ranked the wealthiest person on the planet, with a Net worth of $40 Billion. Just $3 Billion ahead of his next rival Warren Buffet who is 25 years his senior.

Now you must have heard of Bill Gates already, he started Microsoft with Paul Allen and hasn’t looked back ever since. Although the company is hugely successful, they have been criticized for trying to get a monopoly on the computer market and in some cases this has been upheld by courts too. But it doesn’t stop them from becoming one of the most successful businesses on the planet. You are probably using one of their operating systems right now. Continue Reading

Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson is one of the UK’s most successful entrepreneurs. He has built up a net worth of more than $2.5 Billion through his Virgin group of companies.

I’ve read his autobiography, Losing My Virginity, several times and am always amazed at just how close to death he has come with the many stunts he has been involved in. He has attempted to break (some successfully) several World records on the way including crossing the Atlantic ocean twice in a boat and also in a hot air balloon.

The Virgin Brand

All of these publicity “stunts” have done wonders for his business. The Virgin brand is recognized all over the World and includes Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Rail, Virgin Money and Virgin Media to name but a few.

One of his most adventurous recent businesses is Virgin Galactic. This is his dream of taking paying passengers into space in a specially built aircraft. He has licensed the technology that powers spaceships and involved Paul Allen, the co-founder of Microsoft, and legendary engineer Burt Rutan. Tickets are said to going to cost $200,000 and they have already sold quite a few. Continue Reading

For many teenagers, they are happy to go through life and take whatever it throws at them. Many will find a job straight out of school and continue with it until they get bored and move on to another job.

But then there are others that just have a huge amount of motivation and drive and decide from an early age that they want a different lifestyle. They don’t want to just settle for the first job they come across. They want to be rich and successful and won’t stop until they get there.

What drives these teenagers and motivates them can be a variety if things. But there’s no doubt they can really make it big when they want to.
