Looks like Victoria Beckham loves the ‘posh’ life. The singer/actress/designer – and wife of soccer legend David Beckham – owns 100 Hermes Birkin bags, the Daily Mail reports. They’re worth more than $2 million altogether. The Birkin bag, named after actress Jane Birkin and designed by French fashion house Hermes, usually starts around $7,500. However, the prices can sometimes hit six figures when the bag is made from more exotic materials. And Ms. Beckham appears to like those exotic bags. She has been seen carrying the pink ostrich skin and black crocodile versions. She also owns the Silver Himalayan style, which comes with a three carat diamond and is worth about $120,000, the Daily Mail reports.

Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich may have lost $20 billion last year but that’s not going to stop him from building the biggest yacht in the world. He’s continuing his plans for the Eclipse which is estimated to cost roughly $355 million. The megayacht will be the world’s biggest upon completion next year. The 555-ft. ship, which includes a military-grade missile defense system, armor plating and bullet-proof windows, will literally eclipse the recently-debuted $350 million, 531-ft. Dubai owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al-Maktoum, the Emir of Dubai.

Do you know what $150 Million can buy you? Somebody else’s hand me downs!

With 73,500 square feet, the $150 million Spelling Manor is the largest home in Los Angeles County. “I spent four years, 24-7, planning this house,” says Spelling of the French chateau-style house, which boasts five acres of manicured grounds, a tennis court, a swimming pool and a beauty salon. “Now I need something smaller – just for me.” Her plan? To move into a 17,000-sq.-ft. condo (the same size as an attic in her present home). “I’m going to have to give up some things, but it’s time for a change,” she says.

I have many different opinions on 50 Cent, none of which are bad just my perception of him. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is a smart, young, black, successful businessman. He is also at times arrogant and conceited but as Remy put it, he got a reason. We might not like the things that 50 says or the way he delivers his message at the time, but the message is usually based in the truth just delivered in a light that’s most favorable to 50.
50 found the clue to success early in his career with “How to Rob.” That’s when he learned that in order to be successful, you need to first make yourself relevant. He’s been thriving every since. His business moves and strategies have made him pretty damn rich. He has strategically branded and marketed himself in ways that were previously unfamiliar to Hip-Hop. He created another niche inside the mixtape game that took mixtapes as a whole to another level. Sh*t do you remember “Problem Child”? That was the first time I ever went out looking for a mixtape! That record was so hot, but I digress. He took the success in the mixtape market and planted it firmly into his first commercial release. The “Get Rich or Die Tryin” album started a new energy around Hip-Hop and it was highly anticipated as evidenced by the outstanding, record breaking album sales. Realistically 50 changed the bar for rappers with this album. The road to this wasn’t easy.
