9. Bill Gates’ Xanadu fortress
It’s a home. No a castle. Nope, it’s a fortress. Bill Gates’ Xanadu estate in Medina, Washington is the largest private residence in the U.S. worth a whopping $120 million.

10. Mark Zuckerberg’s $7M house
It’s outrageous in a sense that this tech mogul could have afforded a celebrity-level mansion than his $7-million house in Silicon Valley. It has neat porch, big windows, a yard, and all the nooks and crannies of an upper middle-class house.
