Billionaire Larry Ellison, the 3rd richest American according to Forbes, has purchased Lanai which is the 6th largest Hawaiian island.
At $500,000,000 it was quite a steal considering it breaks down to a tiny 0.13 cents a square foot. A great 500 million USD investment by the Oracle CEO.
Lanai is a destination of untouched tranquility, relaxation and tranquility. A golfers paradise, no distraction or hustle and bustle like Oahu.
This romantic island is a true getaway, though they also have a Four Seasons five star hotel.
The rich get richer. Congratulations, Mr. Ellison on obtaining Hawaii’s most enticing island. Well played sir and Aloha.
65 negatives of world famous photographer Ansel Adams were bought at a garage sale in Fresno, California for only $45.
The photos have been verified as Ansel Adam’s early work, thought to have been lost in a 1937 Yosemite fire, and are now valued at over $200,000,000 [$200 Million]
Ansel Adams is best known for his stunning black and white photography – in particular – his western America landscapes. He passed away in 1984 at the age of 82.
The 6.5 x 8.5 inch glass plate negatives of famous Yosemite landscapes and San Francisco landmarks made an interesting journey from Ansel Adams’ own collection to a Pasadena, Ca. unclaimed storage / warehouse salvage sale and ultimately to a Fresno, Ca. garage sale.
One fortunate man has parlayed a $45 investment into a $200 Million cash cow.
