There aren’t many billionaires, and most of the time, it’s enough to have a few members on your security detail when at events since most keep low profiles. However, even though this may be true, billionaires still spend quite a lot of money on security.

The most expensive billionaire in terms of security:

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg

10–25 million USD Annually

What does he spend it on? What do billionaires in general spend it on?

Bodyguards

The 6’6″, 330-pound suit-and-earpiece men that stands near with crossed arms, surveying the area around their employer, bodyguards. Billionaires might have two or three of these individuals with them at all times, or even an entire team of them with their own convoy of vehicles.
