To be John Paulson…
So, who is John Paulson?
Well, he is a former investment banker and currently runs his own hedge fund firm and last year took home US $3 billion as his paycheck.
As Maclean’s magazine points out, that is “$26 for every single household in the US, 13 times what Oprah makes (a mere $225 Million), and enough to buy the Dallas Cowboys, Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Rangers and have half a billion left over to buy hot dogs”.
Apparently he is looking at trading up from his $19 Million Hamptons digs to a $41 Million compound down the street.
must be nice…
Just wanting to share the world's ridiculous extravagances...
