One very wealthy man from the Middle East dishes out enough cash to buy not one Aston Martin One-77  but ten!! Each Aston costing $1.7 million each. He also had them shipped to the desert which set him back an astounding $23 million. As for the performance of this sedan, it boasts of a V12 7.3 liter engine that produces a 750hp from the super light monocoque shell, hitting a top speed of 220mph.

He is reportedly planning to give one to each member of his immediate family. I wonder if he would like to adopt me?

How “Sweet” is that?? Diddy purchased a $360000 Maybach for his son Justin Dior Combs, 16th Birthday!! The entire event was filmed by no other than MTV’s  reality show “My Super Sweet Sixteen”. Performances by rappers Fabolous, Lil’ Kim, and Jim Jones.

Of course the car comes with a driver, i think thats too much car for a 16 year old to handle!

I have to admit i was a bit surprised by the collaboration photo-shoot with Sean Combs and Natalia Vodianova for this photoshoot. I loved the classic look minus the bling and extravagance that you would expect from Mr. Combs aka “DIDDY”. Sean wears classic mens cut suits and the editorial captures scenes that remind us of classic romanticism in a war time era. They both look amazing and Sean Combs never fails to impress me.

This foray into old Hollywood glamour – shot by Annie Leibovitz – can be seen in the gallery below.

Classy Hollywood star, Scarlett Johansson embodies the essence of Dolce & Gabbana’s  new ‘Rose the One’ fragrance. Subtly sexy with grace undertones, we can see why Scarlett was selected for this ad campaign.  The actress absolutely sizzles with girl next-door charm.  Though, this is only one of many D&G campaigns she represents. Her femininity and sexy sophistication definitely make for a lasting impression!

The Most Expensive Plane in the World

Posted on: November 9, 2009
1 comment so far

Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud spent $485 million on the custom Airbus A380, with interior and amenities designed by British firm Design Q.

The plane usually seats 600, but lots of room had to be cleared for various perks. Naturally, there’s an on-board garage, so that the prince can be driven right to the threshold of of the airplane’s elevator. After arrival, he can retire to his master suite–one of five with king-size beds, and computer generated prayer mats which always face Mecca (one must always be humble); up to 20 extra-guests have to make due in sleepers that are the equivalent of first class.

But the real insanity begins elsewhere on the plane’s three floors: There’s a concert hall that seats ten and has a baby grand piano; a boardroom with a holographic projector; and a full-size steamroom. The most entertaining perk is a “Wellbeing Room” which has a floor upon which is projected an enormous image of what the plane is flying over–thus creating a “magic carpet” effect.

    Your not rich unless you can buy a country rich!

    Some people like to consider themselves rich and wealthy but wait!!!!

    Your not rich or wealthy unless you can buy a country like Forbes 400 members!!  CIA Fact Book reveals that most Forbes 400 members have wealth that is greater than many countries. Bill Gates, for instance can buy Costa Rica, El Salvador, Bolivia and Uruguay among the 140 countries that have less GDP than his net worth of $50 billion.

    forbes_400

    forbes_400

    Warren Buffet can grab North Korea, New York’s Mayor Michael Bloomberg ca buy Zambia, and countries like Haiti, Belize, Montenegro, Barbados can be bought by many of the 400 billionaires mentioned in the Forbes list. If you truly want to call yourself rich, you must start thinking about being in the 400 member list of Forbes so that you could technically buy a country of your own, though it’s practically not possible. If you can’t afford a country, you should at least aim for the $2.2 billion resort for the world’s richest citizens.
