Bill Gates – $147 Million, Washington
Get ready to be blown away! After all, we are talking about one of the richest men in the world- Bill Gates. He owns several homes across the country, but his primary residence is straight out of a fiction novel, literally.
The residence spans 66,000 feet, and the imposing Pacific lodge-styled mansion is probably the smartest home in the world. It has the latest technology incorporated into it, complete with heated floors. A page would not fully describe the affluence this house has, but for scale, in 2009, Gates paid over a million dollars in property taxes for this house alone! Mind-blowing!
