that guy is dumb, besides the fact it costs so much he wasted his money because there is only 5-6 airports in the world that an A380 can even land at. His 747 could fly into almost every major airport

i would want one, but i know that no matter what i can do, i would in no way have a single chance in my life have the moment to get that much money. im sure that this is a case where the probability is actually 0.

Come on, let the guy party. He's given so much away, its ridiculous. Not as much as Gates or anything, but I'm pretty sure he even tried to give NYC like 10 million or more after the Sept 11 attacks. Thats pretty cool if u ask me.

the richest guy in dubai supposedly only has 2.5 billion
so thats pretty reckless to spend more than 10 percent of your wealth on a single thing like that
