The secret lives of billionaires
and the things that make them tick
There’s something incredibly alluring about having a billion or two in the bank. Hollywood has us living in a fantasy world of champagne, diamonds and bank notes are thrown around like it’s monopoly money. Sure, there’s the glamour of Valentino suits and Prada shoes, most billionaires don’t spend their day playing dress up and going out to parties.
In fact, they’re a lot more like us common people than we realize. The only difference is that they’ve managed to hit jackpot in their pursuits and everyone has elevated them to god status for their extreme wealth.
While millionaires tend to be a bit more showy with their wealth, the top 10 billionaires could easily be mistaken as just your regular Joe Blob if you weren’t paying attention.
