When you become super rich, do you develop a taste for the most expensive things, or do you just have the means to buy things you’ve always wanted, so you buy them?
Whatever the case may be, but for the world’s second-richest footballer, money is not an issue, of course, and he likes to spend it all on the most over-the-top ridiculously expensive things.
The latest thing he allegedly spent big bucks on, and the inspiration behind this list, he recently purchased the limited-edition hypercar. At 8.5 million euros – or Rs 75 crore – the car is so exclusive that reportedly only 10 of them are destined for production.
It’s no surprise that one of the owners is none other than Ronaldo even if he has to wait until 2021 for it.
2. A diamond-encrusted custom made Jacob & Co. watch
When it comes it to rich people, time really is money. (Sorry for the bad joke)
But seriously, how else do you explain a watch that’s worth $1.85 million, or almost Rs 14 crores? The Jacob & Co watch custom-made for the footballer may well be worth the price when you get to know that it’s fitted with a whopping 424 white diamonds.
Looks like he just found 424 ways of calling us poor, TBH.
3. His own wax figure
At just $25,000, it’s probably one of the cheapest things Ronaldo owns, but considering how unexpected and over-the-top it actually is, it deserves a place on this list.
I mean, who else is obsessed with themselves so much that they would spend thousands of dollars for a wax statue of themselves? Basically, Madrid’s Museum of Wax honoured Ronaldo with a statue and he was so impressed that he had a replica made which he reportedly keeps at his house.
This is the level of self-love people should aspire to reach.
4. Ronaldo’s NYC apartment
Out of all the houses he owns, and there are a lot, the one in New York, located in Trump Towers, seems to be the most expensive out of the lot.
With a price tag of $18.5 million, the gorgeous house has a nice view of the Hudson River, the Empire State Building, and the Central Park among other landmarks.
5. A private jet
Of course, the man has a private jet, but apparently it’s the most expensive one. He owns a Gulfstream G650 jet, which is reportedly worth about $70 million. I honestly can’t even comprehend that amount of money.
BONUS – $27k for two bottles of wine
Since he probably doesn’t own them anymore but he still could afford to spend over 20 lakhs on just two bottles of wine, this deserves an honorary mention here. A couple of years ago, he made headlines for buying two bottles of the most expensive red wine in just 15 minutes.
