Bill Gates | $127.3 Billion, Medina | Porsche 959


If you are among the richest men in the world, what else could you possibly want? For Bill Gates, it is helping people through philanthropic endeavors. The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation is what keeps him busy nowadays. He has, after all, pledged that at least half of his investments would be given to charity. This is a bold promise, which we hope that the tech entrepreneur would fulfill.

Gates does have a few guilty pleasures, one of which is buying real estate. His home that overlooks Lake Washington in Medina, Washington, is valued at $147.5 million. It boasted of a Pacific lodge style and was designed by top professionals from Bohlin Cywinski Jackson and Cutler-Anderson Architects. When it comes to cars, this CEO has a host of Mercedes, Ferraris, and Lamborghinis in the garage, but one of his favorites is his red 1988 Porsche 959.
