How Jeff Bezos Blew $120.4 Billion Dollars

Jeff Bezos is the richest man in the world, and ceo of Amazon. He's worth over 100 billion US dollars, he spends his money on mansions, private jets, sports cars and some incredible technology

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos is the richest man in the world with a networth of about $117.3 billion as of 2020. A man with that much money has to come up with some creative ways to spend it.

He has luxury properties in Seattle, LA, and even Texas, but the CEO also has an exclusive private jet and even a company dedicated to commercial space travel. And he definitely has his unique taste, which is why he’s invested money buying things like a giant clock that will run for 10,00 years.

With all the fortune to spend, Jeff Bezos is definitely living the luxury life. But you’d be surprised by what isn’t so important to him, like cars, and what is, like robot dogs and family vacations.

But don’t think that the billionaire isn’t at least a little bit cheap. Workers at Amazon HQ don’t ever get free lunches or luxury treatment, but Bezos still throws himself and his friend some lavish parties at his many mansions. Here are all the crazy things Jeff Bezos blows his enormous fortune on.
