The Octopus

When the biggest issue of the day becomes: Which helicopter should I take... off my yacht?

The Octopus is currently the world's 8th most expensive yacht, 2nd for a person other than a head of state. That person is Paul G. Allen, co-founder of Microsoft. This 414’ puppy cost 200 million to build, hosts a full time crew of 60 (including Navy Seals), carries two helicopters, seven boats and 2 submarines. Operating costs per year? 20 mil.
