2. Jay Z – $55 Million On Racehorse
There is no doubt that California Chrome is not one of the greatest racehorses of all time. The horse won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Winner, and you can imagine when it went up for sale, that it was going to fetch a pretty hefty sum of money. The racing community, and former owner Steve Coburn, were blown away though when Jay-Z was the man who stepped in with the winning bid of $55 million. The horse may end up paying off for Jay-Z, as you can imagine those are genes that are well worth passing on to future racehorses. Personally, I had no idea that Jay-Z was a big racehorse fan, but I suppose when you get the opportunity to purchase the absolute best of something, why wouldn’t you go out and get it?
