Jeff Bezos, the titan behind Amazon and one of the world’s wealthiest individuals, continues to make headlines with his extravagant acquisitions. Recently, he made waves by purchasing a new Gulfstream G700 private jet, a purchase valued at a staggering $80 million (approximately Rs 670 crore). This acquisition adds to his already impressive fleet of aircraft, which includes a Gulfstream G650 and a Pilatus PC-24, pushing his total investment in aviation to over $200 million (approximately Rs 1,679 crore). The Gulfstream G700 is renowned for its opulent features and cutting-edge technology. Boasting panoramic oval windows, high-speed WiFi, and seats that transform into ergonomic beds, the jet promises a luxurious travel experience. Notably, it incorporates sustainable aviation technology, featuring aerodynamic wings and Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines aimed at fuel efficiency. With a capacity to accommodate up to 13 passengers, it epitomizes comfort and exclusivity in the skies. Jeff Bezos’s acquisition of the Gulfstream G700 marks him as one of the earliest billionaires to possess this state-of-the-art aircraft. Prior to his purchase, the first two models were snapped up by Qatar Airways, underscoring its appeal and exclusivity in the market. Elon Musk , another prominent figure in the billionaire league, has also placed an order for this coveted jet. Jeff Bezos’s wealth extends beyond his aerial indulgences into the realm of high-end real estate. In May 2024, he expanded his property portfolio with a $90 million (approximately Rs 749 crore) acquisition of a luxurious mansion on Indian Creek Island, Florida’s famed ‘billionaire bunker’. This purchase adds to his existing holdings, which total around $237 million (approximately Rs 1,970 crore) across the island, encompassing multiple properties catering to his lavish lifestyle . His real estate investments span across prominent locations like Beverly Hills, Seattle, West Texas, and New York City, cumulatively valued at approximately $570 million (around Rs 4,785 crore). Not content with dominating the skies, Bezos has also ventured into maritime opulence with the purchase of the superyacht ‘Koru’. Valued at approximately $500 million (around Rs 4,197 crore), this colossal vessel boasts multiple decks, a helipad, and the prestige of being one of the largest sailing yachts globally. It exemplifies Bezos’s penchant for extravagance and his taste for the finer things in life . A Collection of Exotic Wheels In addition to his airborne and nautical conquests, Jeff Bezos indulges in an impressive collection of automobiles. His fleet includes the rare Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, a Bugatti Veyron Mansory, a Land Rover Range Rover , and a Ferrari Pininfarina Sergio, among other high-end vehicles. Reports estimate his investment in this collection to exceed $20 million (approximately Rs 167 crore), underscoring his affinity for luxury on wheels.
