8 Stupidly Expensive Things Michael Jordan Owns

so with Michael Jordan being worth two billion dollars cashing out on Ferraris buying his own private golf course and even copying a 30 million dollar jet it's just the beginning of his stupidly expensive purchases now one of Michael's most recent purchases came here at the beginning of 2019 where he was spotted celebrating on an 80 million dollar yacht the yacht is actually so big that by law requires a professional crew on board at all times but with that being said there's plenty of room for any activities with a full indoor bar decorating a tropical team with special hardwood 8 sleeping cabins a gym and jacuzzi as well then the outdoor includes dining areas as well even its own basketball court onboard and according to TMZ the audit stuff costs eight hundred forty thousand dollars a week to maintain and keep functioning perfectly now back in 2015 Jordan cash on a Gulfstream g4 private jet and he had it wrapped in the UNC white and light blue with the Jordan Brand logo on the back wing as well as it labeled and 236 MJ standing for the number on his jersey of 23 the number of NBA championships he won with six and of course his initials now before the upgrades or any cosmetic work was done the private jet came at a base price of nearly 36 million and then he added luxuries like custom rolls-royce engines and being able to sit 19 passengers but in 2017 Jordan decided to give the plane a makeover with a brand new paint job that happened to be Jordan's specific design that's been used for many of the signature shoes the new elephant print style now covered the entire plane with colors of urban camouflage which is popular to the retro Air Jordan threes so with both of these paint jobs coming in around $700,000 for both of them the total price of this jet is nearly 50 million dollars now join happen to be introduced to golf by his college roommate just weeks before he left to join the NBA but Jordan followed his hidden talent very well over the years and eventually played with icons like Tiger Woods on a regular basis bought a massive mansion our private golf course and then he came on early 2018 making a public he was gonna open up his very own golf course in Florida just north of West Palm Beach the course itself will primarily be private would be called Grove 23 but it would allow close friends and family as well as pro golfers or anyone highly recommended by MJ himself a close friend and golf partner of Jordan over the years actually said his reason for wine to build his own course was that Michael likes to play fast and he can't stand when people won't let him through that happens enough out there that he's gotten fed up he just steps up hits choose your ears off with smack talk and off he goes if he knows the guy she's with I'll not even wait he'll drive up to the green as your back is in the fairway hitting the course itself will include a private club for residents and members a driving range 9800 square foot Clubhouse and maintenance facilities for any golfer on the course but the course itself covers 223 acres with Hills and many trees that float throughout the st. Lucie River and it was estimated to be worth fifteen to twenty million dollars when he was initially having it built but would cost a couple million dollars annually to maintain now Jordan himself is heavily been in the cars ever since he joined the league and beyond one of Jordans prized possessions this is Aston Martin db7 that was estimated to be worth around $200,000 but it was actually gifted to him by the manufacturer and they gave him the car in a special red variant that wouldn't be put on any of the other cars similar to it being sold Jordan also flats his red and black $115,000 Porsche 911 Turbo that was actually an inspiration on one of his iconic shoe designs the MJ himself actually owned many different models of Porsches all at the same time during his days with the Chicago Bulls a 939 64 and 993 even Michael's very own Air Jordan six shoes were actually inspired by his red and black 911 with the shoe itself being shaped like the car as well as the black and red color scheme another car that MJ's been spied in many times is a two hundred twelve thousand dollar custom Ferrari 512 testa Rossa which happens to be one of his favorites and he's been spotted in multiple versions of it he's had one black and one bright red and even had the license plate and it's also a modified special model that few people in the world actually have but back in 2007 Jordan cashed out on a very rare edition of a car that cost him nearly a half million dollars this mercedes-benz McLaren version an SLR 722 had butterfly doors as well as engine and suspension upgrades to make it better for racing and it cost her in 450,000 but it didn't last long at MJ's garage as it ended up on eBay just a few years later with less than a thousand miles on it but over the years Jordan's garage have constantly been filled with a variety of unique cars he said certain was personally customized by DreamWorks Motorsports including multiple Range Rovers a Bentley Continental GT and multiple mercedes-benz MJ's even had multiple Ferraris including a 599 and has been spotted in and around many Corvettes as well so with Michael Jordan being recognized as the greatest player of all time his NBA resume is easily one of the most impressive that we've ever seen so it's only right - MJ's been living good all these years with his ridiculous mansion collection now we all know that MJ resided in Chicago for most of his professional career but nearly a decade after retiring for the first time MJ cash on the 12 million dollar home in Jupiter Florida repaid 4.8 million for the land and 7.6 million for the construction of the home making this mansion one of the most expensive homes in the Palm Beaches but MJ who says he's an everyday golfer nowadays actually bought this home from legendary Jack Nicklaus is ironically right down the street from Tiger Woods as well but back in 2010 Jordan said to the Gulf sunrise to sunset while his family enjoys everything else about the stunning 28,000 square foot home this massive 3 acre mansion consists of a guard house a guest house and a pool house but Jordan's home itself consists of 11 bedrooms 6 on the second floor alone a huge media room with state-of-the-art electronics and also an athletic wing together with basketball court and workout facility having said all of that since moving in Jordan's had over 7 million dollars in renovations put into this home make it worth nearly 20 million dollars present day now obviously with Michael Jordan creating such a legacy in Chicago it's only right these still spends time there today in just a few years after he retired from the Wizards he bought a 56,000 square foot home in Highland Park Illinois that has everything a legend needs from an infinity pool with a grass Hill in the middle a custom door from the Playboy Mansion and even his Jumpman logo on all of the golf legs around the premises but with that being said the home includes a putting green tennis court and even a pond filled with fish now up to this point if you've seen anything to do with this home the main gate of his mansion has the number 23 on it and it's pretty much turned into a tourist attraction for the city but the area as a whole consists of seven acres while on the inside includes an NBA regulation court branded with his logo a piano room a cigar room an aquarium actually built into the wall a skylight over the kitchen nine bedrooms and 19 bathrooms of course it includes yet again a media room as well as a full-size gym with every piece of equipment necessary it was actually stated that some of Jordans bowls teammates came to work out here every morning when Jordan bought them for roughly 25 million dollars he originally had plans to make it his primary home but becoming such a golfer after his basketball days and she decided to make the Florida home his main destination and he eventually put this Highland Park house up for sale at 30 million but it sits on the market still today now in February of 2013 Jordan purchased a huge mansion in Charlotte North Carolina during a foreclosure sale so as for much cheaper than the house was actually worth but it makes sense that he did so since he spent most of his childhood in the state played in college therefore the Tar Heels and of course he became a majority owner of the Charlotte Hornets but this 12,000 square foot mansion only costed MJ 2.8 million after the house was listed at 3.5 million and it sits on North Carolina's Lake Norman it includes six bedrooms eight bathrooms full library a vintage wooden in-home elevator with built-in telephone on the wall inside a two-story great room that opens to a terrace patio with enormous pool and spa and a basement of personal gym and entertainment center the lakefront home also happens to sit right off the seventh hole in the peninsula Club Golf Course which suits Jordan well now with Michael Jordan growing up in North Carolina as well as playing college ball there with his playing days in the NBA being over he still continues to be heavily involved in the league is the investment of the Charlotte team which was the Bobcats back in 2006 but just a few years later in 2010 Jordan made a public he wanted to own the team and he purchased them outright for a reported 275 million shortly after Jordan came out and said purchasing the Bobcats is the culmination of my post-playing career goal of becoming a majority owner of an NBA franchise I'm especially pleased to have the opportunity to build a winning team in my home state of North Carolina I plan to make this franchise an organization that Charlotte can be proud of and I'm committed to doing all that I can to achieve this goal now according to Forbes the Hortons franchise is now worth around 1.25 billion with MJ spending a short time playing professional baseball as well he's actually looking to own an MLB team on top of this and he recently spent five million dollars to have a stake in the Miami Marlins now just like the rare type of player that Jordan was his watch collection is just as unique at a join brand photo shoot that also included Dwyane Wade Jordan Wade both suck out their hands with Jordan shoes in each and Jordan was rocking one of his $40,000 Ulis nard and Sanada watches that's white gold and has a huge face with a big day and countdown mechanism in a promotional interview for his brand MJ was rocking a Richard Mille RM 32 covered in red gold was the larger style coming in at 50 millimeters the Richard Mille watch cost him $125,000 and respectfully so with a full titanium build and big rubber strap in 2005 Jordan was pictured wearing a you are 203 watch made by your work that cost Jordan roughly 230,000 the watch is known for being quite special with its design being unlike many other watches as well as of working off satellites and even has telescoping hands and a picture taken of Jordan courtside at a Bobcats game in 2013 you spotted rocking a stunning $75,000 Rolex Daytona Platinum Jordan had the new 2013 50th anniversary Platinum Edition where the faces of seafoam light green color with brown edging all along the sides with a diamond bezel and lastly at the 2019 NBA all-star weekend in Charlotte during a press conference Jordan was spotted wearing another unique piece this time a red gold big pilot's watch that was actually limited only 250 ever made with a being priced around 32,000 this Anton de st. at a red gold case as well as an annual calendar display now of course with MJ being so legendary anything sold at michael's after his playing days is something worth treasuring since his legacy isn't disappearing anytime soon and lots of expensive memorabilia of Jordans spent sold recently a protect which is a popular sports car business actually bought the entire hardwood floor that Jordan won his final championship on I'll protect bought the Delta Centers floor for $1,000,000 and although there's not details on what they did with it I'm sure they incorporated into many products another crazy piece of memorabilia that was actually sold was a basketball signed by the two icons that went by the initials MJ Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson but they both signed this one-of-a-kind basketball after they both shot the music video Jam for Michael Jackson that happens to feature Jordan a bunch throughout and has 55 million views on YouTube the one lucky fan purchased the sign ball for 294,000 which is one if not the most expensive basketball in history now nobody created more hype and college sports than Michael Jordan and that's exactly why game war and UNC jerseys are almost impossible to find but them starting at $100,000 to even get your hands on one but one person did buy one of Jordans game worn jerseys from his sophomore season and sold for a hundred fourteen thousand a few years ago legendary sports cards that are signed by a player have pieces of jersey in it or our of the rookie seasons are hard to come by but recently some about a 1986 rookie Michael Jordan card for $100,000 which is a record for the most ever spent on one car and this card is unique because it's actually graded a perfect ten out of ten in all categories now one of the greatest plays in sports history is Michael Jordan's final shot in Game six of the 1998 NBA Finals where was 16 seconds left in the game down by one he got a steal and took it the length of the court crossed up and hit his famous shot leaving five seconds on the clock and going up on the Jazz by one basically securing them the championship this was Jordans final shot of a Chicago career and a fan actually ended up purchasing the rim and backboard that he hit that shot on for 57,000 now go check out what the NBA will
