All kinds of hobbies make our life brighter, promote self-expression and sometimes even bring income. Moreover, the availability of money clearly affects interests. So, few of the billionaires collect maple leaves for herbarium or collect stamps. More often the subject of desire are cars, art objects, and jewelry.

The most expensive hobbies we have collected in the current Top 10.

10. Yachts and ships

As a rule, not only buying a yacht, but also its maintenance “flies” a pretty penny. After all, the luxury vessels presented in the collections of billionaires must be kept clean and in good condition. Do not forget about insurance. So, one of Roman Abramovich’s yachts costs the businessman about $ 2.5 million annually.

9. Aviation

Most wealthy people are limited to a single private jet for comfortable travel. However, some aircraft fall into the soul. So the famous actor John Travolta in his childhood collected models, but after achieving fame and money, he began to acquire real airplanes.

8. Ancient artifacts

Almost every one of the number of dollar billionaires can afford a statue of the ancient period. But the artifacts of the pre-Sumerian period are the lot of experts, enthusiastic natures and fabulously wealthy collectors. The real price of such exhibits is almost impossible to find out, because trade in artifacts, as a rule, is carried out illegally.

7. Rare books

In the world there are several hundred book collections that are not inferior in value to the famous Vatican library, which contains true rarities. The most expensive of the famous collections belongs to Bill Gates. This is the Leicester Codex by Leonardo da Vinci. The cost of the treatise is estimated at $ 24 million.

6. Art objects

In addition to the fact that buying an expensive painting or statue will cost millions of dollars, valuables should be constantly insured, because these exhibits are always in high demand among criminal elements. Officially, it is believed that the most expensive picture in the world was Paul Cézanne's “Card Players,” which left the auction for $ 250 million.

5. Autographs

So, an autograph of John Lennon can cost $ 850 thousand, autographs by Marilyn Monroe and Joe Di Maggio - about $ 200 thousand. Well, the most expensive in the world is the autograph of William Shakespeare, because it exists in only 6 copies.

4. Baseball cards

These pieces of cardboard cost enthusiastic collectors by no means cheap. So, in 2007, the T206 Honus Wagner baseball card was sold for $ 2.8 million. The card was issued in 1906 with a circulation of 70 copies.

3. Things celebrities

So, John Lennon’s Rolls-Royce was sold for $ 2.2 million, and the famous white “flying” dress of Marilyn Monroe “left” for $ 4.6 million. Even more expensive is the purchase of jewelry in which stars flaunted. Necklace Elizabeth Taylor went to a suffering collector for $ 11.9 million.

2. Military equipment

Hobbies are not cheap, since on the black market the cost of the T-72M tank will be from $ 1 million. True, there are enthusiastic collectors who buy decommissioned equipment and literally in parts restore cars and guns. So, the British married couple Andrew and Sally Baker collect such dilapidated tanks, self-propelled guns, etc., having already restored about 80 vehicles.

1. Ancient castles

Perhaps this hobby is the most expensive of all. The bottom line is to purchase an old castle, and then, having received the necessary permissions, transport it closer to the house in parts and rebuild. By the way, an abandoned dilapidated castle of the 12-14th century can be purchased at a ridiculous price of $ 50 thousand. Dismantling and transportation will cost more. The Arab sheikhs were the first to assemble the castles, who gradually brought this unusual hobby into fashion among multibillionaires.
