Check Out the Homes of 8 Famous Money Experts, From Bezos to Buffett
One of the perks of being a famous money expert (or simply one of the wealthiest people on Earth) is having the ability to live large — literally. Having amassed an incredible amount of wealth, folks such as Jeff Bezos also have acquired some fascinating real estate portfolios that reflect not only their personal tastes, but also their financial philosophies. Also See: Learn More: Whether it's a 1,400-acre hyper-secret Hawaiian compound or a 400-square-foot, four-bedroom home in Texas, the houses, mansions and compounds of eight of the world's most famous money experts might fascinate you. As the world's third-wealthiest human being (after Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, who will both pop up later), Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has a staggering real estate portfolio of over 10 homes valued at approximately $700 million, per the Robb Report. Estimated Cost: $165 million Bezos owns a 14,000-square-foot mansion with two houses, a golf course, a tennis court, a parking structure, a nursery and a swimming pool. Estimated cost: $78 million The secretive Bezos compound in Maui consists of 14 acres and multiple houses. Estimated cost: $234 million In 2023, Bezos began purchasing great deals of Florida real estate, making the state his primary residence. Estimated cost: $132 million Bezos has owned property in New York City since 1999, owning multiple massive units in multiple buildings throughout the city. Estimated cost: $120.5 million Bezos set himself up with a gargantuan compound in Medina, Washington in 1998, a great deal of which he has since sold and made Florida his primary residence. Estimated Cost: $28 million In addition to buying The Washington Post, Bezos has also purchased a building formerly used as the Textile Museum and transformed it into a private residence. Find More: Read More: Estimated cost: $31,500 Warren Buffett is currently the sixth-richest man in the world with a net worth of $154 billion, and yet the famously frugal investor owns only one home — in Omaha, Nebraska. Purchased in 1958 for approximately $31,500, Buffett has lived in the five-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home for 67 years. See More: Bestselling author and business expert Grant Cardone has an estimated net worth of $600 million. While that doesn't make him the wealthiest person in the world, it certainly has afforded him the ability to own some pricey real estate. Estimated cost: $40 million Cardone spent $40 million in January 2022 on a Malibu beachfront home that houses six bedrooms across 10,000 square feet. He is reportedly trying to sell the home for $65 million, and has noted he would prefer payment in bitcoin. Estimated cost: $28 million Cardone is also selling his Miami home for $42 million, after spending $28 million on it in 2021 in a purchase from Tommy Hilfiger. Billionaire and entrepreneur Mark Cuban has gone from splitting $600 rent with five friends in a single apartment in 1982 to owning an incredibly expensive series of properties throughout America. Estimated cost: $22 million Cuban makes his main home in the ritzy Preston Hollow neighborhood of Dallas. In addition to such extravagances as a tennis court and pool, the house also has 10 bathrooms and eight bedrooms. Estimated cost: $19 million to $26 million Cuban's West Coast home comes loaded with a walk-in wine cellar, an infinity pool and a gorgeous view of the Pacific Ocean. Estimated cost: $13.5 million Cuban owns a condo in the Trump International Hotel & Tower. Cuban bought it in 2000 and has yet to sell it because it has lost value. Estimated cost: $50,000 Perhaps befitting his mercurial, somewhat unusual nature, Elon Musk is the richest human being on Earth, and yet lives a tiny home that is only 400 square feet. Designed to be the height of functionality and efficiency, it is worth only $50,000 and is comprised of a living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. It is located near Musk's SpaceX Starbase that is based out of Boca Chica, Texas. Explore More: Financial expert and author Suze Orman has a varied and pricey real estate portfolio, albeit one without many public details. Estimated cost: $3.6 million Since 2007, Orman has owned a 1,275-foot apartment in the ritzy Plaza Hotel along New York City's Central Park. Estimated cost: N/A While details on Orman's other properties are scant, she is known to also own a condo in South Florida, a condo in Johannesburg, South Africa, and property in the Bahamas, per her own website. Estimated cost: $10.2 million Financial advisor Dave Ramsey is known for his somewhat loud, larger-than-life personality, so it's only fitting that he would have had an enormous six-bedroom, nine-bathroom home of his own, one that stretches across 13,545 square feet, as reported by Taste of Country. The home is stacked with an elevator, a pool and spa, three garages and five fireplaces. All that said, Ramsey chose to sell the property in 2021. With a net worth of $216 billion, Facebook founder and entrepreneur Mark Zuckerberg is the world's second-wealthiest person, and he has a real estate portfolio that definitely matches his stature as one of the world's richest men. Estimated cost: $270 million Zuckerberg owns an enormous estate in Kauai that stretches beyond a whopping 1,400 acres. Multiple mansions are housed across the properties, along with a number of swimming pools, a tennis court, gyms and saunas, multiple treehouses connected by rope bridges, and even a 5,000-square-foot underground shelter, according to the Robb Report. Little else is known about this very mysterious — and very large –property holding. Estimated cost: $59 million Zuckerberg has purchased two properties along Lake Tahoe and has been at work grouping them into a seven-building joint compound that will feature additional guesthouses, offices and a spa. Estimated cost: $43 million Zuckerberg primarily hangs his hat in Palo Alto, in a series of neighboring homes, pools and offices. Estimated cost: $23 million Like Bezos, Zuckerberg has set himself up with a strikingly expensive home in Washington, D.C., following the most recent presidential election. At 15,400 square feet, the mansion is practically a compound unto itself, one that serves as a home base for Zuckerberg as his interests become increasingly political.

My 3 Favorite Stocks to Buy Right Now
Roku is a long-term growth play with recent volatility and a promising ad partnership with Amazon. Costco continues to deliver market-beating returns, justifying its premium price tag. Target is a risky turnaround story, priced for pessimism but showing signs of a strategic comeback. 10 stocks we like better than Roku › The stock market has been less predictable than usual lately. As I'm writing this on June 20, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) index is up only 1.5% year to date. But this mellow return included a deep dip in April, so the index has gained 24% from the bottom of its 52-week low. So, things are extra volatile this year, and I understand if you'd rather keep some cash on hand right now. But even now, a few stocks can inspire me to put my extra cash to work. Read on to see why my hand hovers over the "buy" button for Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU), Costco (NASDAQ: COST), and Target (NYSE: TGT) in June 2025. Media-streaming technology veteran Roku has had quite a ride lately. Its stock price shot up by 50% over the past year but has taken a slight detour more recently, dropping 3% in the last six months. The growth story is still alive and well, with excitement over new deals, such as the recent Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) ad partnership, keeping optimism afloat. However, the company still isn't showing a profit, so valuation ratios based on profitability don't make any sense. Instead, you can look at Roku's price-to-sales (P/S) ratio, which sits at a reasonable 2.8. That metric floated in double-digit territory four years ago. For now, Roku is acting a bit like the kid in class who has tons of potential but hasn't quite turned in the homework -- yet. The platform is growing, and recent partnerships could be a game changer, but the market wants to see proof that all these moves will translate to real, scalable profits. That's why Roku's stock looks cheap in this period of growth-focused operations and limited profits. If you're in it for the long haul and don't mind a few twists and turns, Roku still looks like a compelling candidate for a growth-focused portfolio. It's one of the few stocks I don't mind buying right now since its short-term price moves tend to be unpredictable anyway. This is a long-term growth idea. Wholesale warehouse retailer Costco is a different story. The stock has been soaring for years, lifting the P/S ratio to a lofty 1.6. That would be low in the high-growth media-streaming market, but Costco's valuation looks luxurious next to other large-scale retailers. But the stock is rising for good reasons. The company has more cash and less debt than sector giant Walmart (NYSE: WMT). Trailing sales are up 61% over the last five years, while Walmart's sales increased by only 26%. Costco's return on invested capital is 26%, nearly twice that of Walmart's 14% reading. Long story short, Costco runs a superior business, and its stock deserves a price premium. This stock looked expensive five years ago, with a 5-year price gain of 114% at the time. By comparison, the S&P rose 47%, and Walmart gained 65% over the same time span. But if you cashed in your Costco gains or sat on your hands in 2020, you've missed out on a market-beating 227% return in the last 5 years: Costco's stock isn't cheap, but you get what you pay for -- a world-class retailer with a history of great shareholder returns. Last but not least, fellow big-box retailer Target tells another compelling story. Target's stock is down 21% in 5 years, and the P/S ratio stands at a skimpy 0.4. If investors are paying extra for Costco's incredible performance, they're stuffing Target shares in Wall Street's bargain bin. This is a turnaround story, not a march to ever greater heights. Turnarounds are risky, but this one should have a happy ending. The company is no longer competing against Walmart and Costco on lower prices, but is refocusing on the affordable-luxury status it once held. The new strategy leans on the nearly forgotten "Tar-zhay" branding. "In a world where shopping has become less inspiring, consumers expect us to be the place they can recapture the joy of retail," CEO Brian Cornell said in the fourth-quarter 2024 earnings call. "Our guests are looking for Tar-zhay. Consumers coined that term decades ago to define how we elevate the everything, every day to something special, how we add unexpected fun into shopping that would be otherwise routine." So, Target is betting the barn on a better shopping experience. The stores need to feel friendlier than Costco's or Walmart's low-cost emporiums. Nobody likes an empty shelf, so popular items must always be in stock -- even if it costs more to run a more complete supply chain. And the Target Circle loyalty program can't be all about discounts, which is why it also offers personalized product recommendations and extended product returns. Target's stock is priced for absolute disaster, but I see good things happening in the turnaround effort. It's a risky bet, but one worth making in the summer of 2025.
