I’m so rich that when I buy a personal jet I buy a small one - that way I can fit it inside the bigger personal jet I buy to fly my personal jet around in.

I’m so rich, that \*when \*I decide to go to the beach in the Caribbean , all I do is walk to the back yard and it’s all arranged - luxury helicopter to aprivate airport, private jet arranged, land somewhere with immigration is covered (whether it’s my own island or Richard Branson’s), and another luxury ride to my luxury pad with private beach and anything I want within a 5 minute wait time.

That’s rich.

I’m so rich that I paid for my copy of WinRAR.

It’s what Palmer Luckey mentioned as what he finally bought with all his money, and that’s probably the thing that would stand out for me too. WinRaR is forever free if you want it to be. I never had to pay for that. I _chose_ to pay for that.

**I’m so rich that**  
nations come to me when they need a loan  
Banks can’t pay interest on my savings, as it would bankrupt them.  
The entire state of Texas would fit on my patio.

My house is so big, that the sun orbits around it.

Jiminy Cricket, that’s a mere summer cottage for me, son. _My_ house is so big, that it has stopped the expansion of the Universe and everything is going to collapse in upon it during a Big Crunch in 14 billion years.
