10 Millionaires & Billionaires Who Drive Cheap Cars
While other rich personalities are spending millions on expensive houses, cars, and exotic vacations, these public figures choose to lead more humble lives. Take a look at the following 10 millionaires and billionaires who own cheap cars.
Well, what do you know? These A-Listers are just like me and you, ordinary!
1. Ingvar Kamprad – Volvo 240
Founder of Ikea – Ingvar Kamprad. The successful entrepreneur is worth in the neighbourhood of $30 billion (that’s right, billion), and despite his financial independence (to put it lightly) he chose to drive a Volvo.
2. Ron Artest – Hyundai Genesis
Artest is best known for his contribution to the Chicago Bulls and the New York Knicks. It’s estimated that artest is worth somewhere around $20 million, but that doesn’t automatically guarantee a sweet ride. In fact, Artest drives a Hyundai Genesis – a car that he didn’t even purchase.
3. Steve Ballmer – Ford Fusion Hybrid
Steve Ballmer is the ex-CEO of software giant Microsoft, and currently he owns NBA’s LA Clippers. Ballmer is worth over $21 billion, but that doesn’t really shock anyone considering the man had run a massive tech company, and now owns an NBA team. What does shock, however, is the fact that despite being able to afford literally anything, Ballmer chose a Ford Fusion Hybrid as his primary mode of transportation.
4. Leonardo DiCaprio – Toyota Prius Hybrid
The environmentally conscious DiCaprio gets around in a 4-cylinder Toyota Prius Hybrid. Although the Prius starts at $19,600, the star could’ve spent as much as an exorbitant $29,900
5. Justin Timberlake – Volkswagen Jetta
Next we have the singer and actor Justin Timberlake and his fourth generation, white Volkswagen Jetta. Although Timberlake appeared in 17 films, released many hits and dated some of the hottest women in show business, he still chooses to drive this $16,000 tin can.
