Many of these seriously expensive will of course be owned by companies via all sorts of financial vehicles. I bet very few are owned in the conventional sense by one person.
I don’t really see the attraction of possessions associated with extreme wealth. When I see super-yachts or high end houses I don’t feel envy. It would be like being in an impersonal hotel. Oddly enough there is one luxury yacht I did find attractive : Britannia. The state rooms aside HM had a way of humanising her space. If it ever comes on sale I might be tempted.
