2. Sport Team
You have the most luxurious property, you own the best looking sport car and yacht, your collectible items are settled. What to do next with your abundant money? You can buy a sport team. Owning a sport team means more than just owning a property. A sport team can also be the source of your prestige, pride, and business income.
Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea Football Club from Ken Bates in 2003. He spent £140 million (worth over $200 million in 2003) for the ownership of the team. Until today, Abramovich has spent over £1 billion for Chelsea.
There are many other rich people, including celebrities, who own sport team. Jon Bon Jovi co-owned Arena Football League’s Philadelphia Soul from 2004 to 2010. In 2006, Australian Russell Crowe bought his favorite rugby team, the South Sydney Rabbitohs.
Owning a sport team doesn’t just mean that you get the best seat in the house for free. You will get all VIP access to the players (well, technically they work for you). You also get to make exclusive decisions over the club. Can you lead them to victory?
