nice walk on the beach well that's exactly what the prince thought when he bought not one but two luxury Mega Yachts you could never be too safe when buying a luxury yacht it's best to keep a spare right MBS bought his first mega yacht Pegasus in 2014. this 120 million dollar mega yacht features a 39-foot swimming pool a helipad a golf driving range and even a children's play area the 255 yacht also has space for up to 12 guests and a crew of 26 while also showcasing a party deck with two bars a dance floor a grand piano a barbecue and a 1 000 bottle tequila Cellar built in 2003 The Vessel has a top cruising speed of 16 knots and was built by the Royal Den shop a Danish company before it was bought by a Californian investor Ronald Tudor until finally being sold to Prince Mohammed bin Salman the Pegasus yacht was the prince's first yacht and ignited in him a love for sailing vessels which compelled him to buy the Serene mega yacht a true Masterpiece this beauty stands tall at 18.5 meters or 60 feet and is one of the top 10 largest yachts in the world with an overall length of 134 meters or 439 feet during a vacation in the south of France Prince Mohammed bin Salman bought the Serene yacht in 2014 from Russian billionaire Yuri Scheffler for about half a billion dollars this iconic sailing vessel was built in 2011 by the Italian Shipyard fincantieri with the exterior design work and Engineering being done by espinoy now one of the world's top yacht designers exact details about the interior of the yacht aren't publicly available however Paul Ashton the editor of super yacht World said the interior is a closely guarded synchrant as is often the case with the very private yachts at the top end but it is the work of Raymond langtat who is one of the most exclusive design teams in the world so it will be breathtaking some details about the interior amenities have been leaked and boy is this yacht impressive Serene features an internal sea water pool complete with a jet stream swimming pool and even an underwater viewing room called the Nemo room one of these pools can even be converted to a helipad if needed giving this yacht a total of two helipads along with an underwater compartment for a submarine designed to be as comfortable as possible this work of art comes with a lavish owner's suede featuring a double cabin with a built-in private swimming platform and a private lift in addition to all this 12 top of the line luxury cabins have been constructed to accommodate 24 guests in the vessel all this sounds great but is this all that you're going to get for half a billion dollars no it's not the Serene yacht is equipped with almost every amenity imaginable including a dance floor a hot and cold Spa a snow room three dedicated playing rooms for children fitted with climbing walls PlayStations and Xboxes and finally the star of the show a 450 million dollar painting hanging on the luxurious walls of the Serene yacht is the world's most expensive painting Leonardo da Vinci's Salvatore munde purchased for almost half a billion dollars in 2017. the 500 year old painting is the last painting ever made by Leonardo da Vinci and depicts Christ making the sign of the cross with his hand the Serene yacht is so impressive that even world famous billionaires have rented it reportedly Bill Gates chartered the Serene Yacht for his vacation in Puerto Servo Sardinia in August 2014 for an estimated 9 million dollars a week Saudi Prince al-walid bin talal gold-plated cars are impressive but when you're the nephew of the king and also the owner of an 18 billion dollar Investment Company you need something a little extra and that's just where Saudi Prince al-wulid bintalal's diamond-encrusted cars step in Yes you heard that right diamond encrusted cars Saudi Prince al-walid bintalal is believed to have a net worth of 18 billion dollars and boy does he spend it right his personal car collection includes over 100 expensive cars including Lamborghinis Ferraris Bentleys and a couple of Rolls-Royce ass by far the most expensive of these cars however is the diamond studded Rolls-Royce rumored to be worth over 4.8 million dollars this extravagant car is adorned with a hundred thousand diamonds but as wild as this purchase is it's nowhere near the most outrageous thing that Prince Al Walid bin talal has spent his money on that award instead goes to his half a billion dollar flying Palace the Airbus A380 the largest commercial aircraft in the world the Airbus A380 is as tall as a seven-story building with each of its wings being large enough to hold 70 cars overall This Magnificent aircraft is 72 meters long and 24 meters high with a wingspan spanning over 80 meters a monster in the sky the Airbus A380 has a

with a personal jacuzzi in case the prince decides to relax and unwind the company has said that the A380 is not only the most luxurious aircraft in existence but also reflects the cultural values and status of its owner Prince alwali's order for the plane was such a big moment for Airbus that they bragged about it in a press release a month after he had placed the order the press release read Prince al-walid's order means that airbus's sales success in the corporate jet market now extends from its smallest aircraft the A318 Elite all the way up to its largest the A380 flying Palace a spokesperson for the company also said this is the most up-to-date model you can get and the largest civil aircraft ever it's huge now we know that this plane is extravagant but what if the prince gets bored is he supposed to keep flying on the same Lane over and over again absolutely not the prince has another plane to deal with this issue Prince al-walid bintalal also owns a Boeing 747 which he bought in 2003 for 220 million dollars This Plane had a seating capacity of 400 when it was first bought but it was later customized to fit the prince's needs and now includes master bedrooms a

abdulaziz al-saud if you thought the princes were overdoing it wait till you see just how much the king spends traveling ranked 16 in the top powerful people 2016 list of Forbes the king of Saudi Arabia King Salman bin abdulaziz Al Saud has a net worth of 20 billion dollars and is by far the most influential person in all of Saudi Arabia keeping their kings safe is of the utmost importance for any nation and when you are the king of a Dynasty worth over 2 trillion dollars you need that extra level of security which is why King Salman travels with over 100 bodyguards in his Boeing 747. this customized Boeing 747 is worth over 500 million dollars and contains king-sized beds a gold-lined interior as well as a throne in the center of the plane that's draped in gold the plane has been customized to include a gym a cinema and most importantly a fully functional hospital as if that wasn't enough the escalator he uses to get out of the plane is gilded with gold too to make sure the king is safe in addition to being comfortable his Boeing 747 has been retrofitted with security measures that enable it to survive a direct hit from a ground-to-air missile According to some Reports online the plane also has electrical systems installed on board which disrupt the navigation systems of incoming missiles and Rockets details about the offensive capability of King Salman in abdulaziz's Planes aren't available publicly for obvious reasons however there are reports that the plane has extensive offensive capabilities too extra fuel tanks have also been installed on board so the plane can cover longer distances without having to land all this not only makes the plane extremely expensive but also makes the annual upkeep of the Flying Fortress pretty pricey it is estimated that the royal family spends 25 million dollars every year on the plane's up game now when you're traveling to another country you need to take some luggage with you and if you're like most people you're only allowed to carry 32 kilograms of luggage King Salomon bin abdulaziz however doesn't follow rules made for everyday men during his tour of Indonesia in 2017 King Salman brought over 459 metric tons of luggage with him wanted this much luggage consist of you ask among other things this luggage contained two stretched out bulletproof Mercedes-Benz S600 limos and two electric elevators in addition to the gold gilded one he normally uses all this had to be carried on an additional seven airplanes consisting of two Boeing 747 400s two 777s one 757 and two 737 800 passenger Jets additional cargo was then also flown in on a Lockheed C-130 Hercules a plane generally reserved for military transport King Salman doesn't enjoy this luxury alone and likes to travel with his buddies wherever he goes for example on the same Indonesian visit I previously mentioned King Salman brought an Entourage of more than 1500 people with him this Entourage consisted of 800 delegates 25 princes and 10 10 ministers in addition to his already extensive security detail in case you're wondering how many weeks the king stayed in Indonesia after bringing nearly 500 tons of luggage and an Entourage of 1500 people it was nine days all that for a little more than a week of traveling now you might be thinking that that's insane and honestly you're not the only one king Salman's outrageous spending habits during his trips have been the cause of multiple protests in Saudi Arabia Indonesia isn't even King Salman's most extravagant trip during his trip to Tokyo King Salman brought an Entourage of over 1 000 people with him and rented out over 400 cars for everyone a member of the car rental industry even revealed that the Saudis had requested only high-end cars be used for the Entourage including Mercedes-Benz BMWs lexuses and other top brands so many cars were required for the Entourage that's not enough were available in the Tokyo region where the King was staying and the company had to expand its search to other parts of the country entree as for hotels King Salman doesn't like to be disturbed when he's on vacation and often rents out entire hotels just to not be bothered these high-end hotels are usually occupied by his Entourage for example 222 rooms in the Four Seasons Hotel Washington DC and Georgetown were booked by the King when he traveled to the U.S on a state visit in 2015. a look back at his Indonesian trip reveals that he booked rooms at the Bulgari for his Entourage these rooms can go for upwards of four thousand four hundred dollars a night and since his Entourage consisted of over 1500 people you can guess just how much the king likes to splurge King Salman has even booked entire beaches for himself during his 2015 visit to France the oil Godfather reserved a section of the beach for himself and had an elevator installed so he could travel straight from his room to the sea without walking through the sand a similar thing was done during his visit in 2015 to Cote d'azur except for this time two elevators were installed instead of one on King Salman bin abdulaziz owns the al-salama super yacht estimated to be worth 300 million dollars the AL Salama super yacht has a top speed of 22 knots and was designed by uk-based Design firm Terence distdale design in 2002. the al-salama super yacht has something which no other super
