You Have More Extravagant Tastes Than These Millionaires

Bright Side

Some ultra-wealthy individuals choose to live modestly, almost like the average person. Billionaires might reside in simple homes, drive regular cars, and shop at regular stores. Despite having enormous wealth, they prefer a low-key lifestyle without flaunting their riches. This could be due to personal values, a desire for privacy, or a way to stay grounded. Living like the poor might also be a deliberate choice to avoid attracting attention or maintaining a sense of normalcy in their lives. What do you think?

00:00With a million bucks in the bank, most people would go for fancy rides at

00:04five-star Michelin restaurants, but not these celebs. From Mark Zuckerberg grabbing a bite

00:09at McDonald's to Leonardo DiCaprio taking his dates on bike rides, meet the rich who keep

00:14things simple. Don't be surprised if you see Mark Zuckerberg eating at McDonald's on a Tuesday

00:22night. He actually has a pretty down-to-earth lifestyle for someone whose net worth is over

00:27$160 billion. Recently, the internet has been buzzing about his, let's say, curious clothing

00:34choices. Comments like, why does Mark Zuckerberg look like a DJ now? are everywhere. But in reality,

00:41he's always been known for never spending money on designer brands and sticking with the average

00:45tech bro wardrobe, a gray t-shirt, hoodie, and jeans. His taste in cars is far from extravagant

00:53In 2022, he posted a photo of two Ford Broncos captioned

00:58his and hers, and these models are valued at around $40,000.

01:03At some level, he believes no one deserves to be a billionaire. As he once said,

01:07I think if you do something that's good, you get rewarded. But I do think some of the wealth that

01:12can be accumulated is unreasonable. Another rich guy who doesn't have

01:17expensive or exotic tastes in cars is Christian Bale. Despite being a multi-millionaire and once

01:24the highest paid actor in the world, he prefers to use public transport, and still drives a

01:2920-year-old secondhand Toyota pickup truck. About his ride, he says,

01:34It's practical, and all my friends need it for moving stuff.

01:37Once you have a pickup truck, you don't go back to anything else.

01:41Leonardo DiCaprio didn't grow up in Beverly Hills or have a 90210 area code.

01:46Quite the opposite, and maybe it's exactly why he still maintains such a humble lifestyle.

01:52Here's what a girl who met him at a club in New York said about him.

01:56He was wearing very casual clothes, especially considering how people dress for the club scene

02:01in The Big Apple, was very polite, and obviously did not want to stand out.

02:07On a daily basis, this Oscar-winning actor is known for keeping things pretty low-key.

02:12He's been spotted picking up pizzas, doing his own grocery shopping,

02:16and riding city bikes along the busy streets of New York. By the way, he seems to be a serial

02:21bike-dater. According to Vogue, over the years, the consummate dad-bot has taken his romance

02:27alfresco and enjoyed a bike ride with many a model, from Gisele Bundchen to Blake Lively.

02:35Adam Sandler is well-known for his laid-back, effortless look,

02:38which basically consists of baggy t-shirts and even baggier basketball shorts and a pair

02:43of sneakers. As his co-star Jennifer Aniston once said,

02:47Well, Adam doesn't really have a great wardrobe, but that's his thing. He actually loves it.

02:53His basketball player outfit makes sense since he loves jumping into random pickup games.

02:58As this former college student shared online, he strolled in with no entourage and no expectation

03:04of VIP treatment. He waited his turn to get into the game. Apparently, he's a regular dude who

03:09happens to have $300 million in the bank. But a big part of his money is donated to

03:15charities such as Feeding America, Make-A-Wish, and Animal Rescue Foundation.

03:20Next up is Hollywood sweetheart Julia Roberts.

03:24She's been in over 50 movies and has a net worth of $250 million. But despite being this mega-famous

03:31actress, she's just living a normal life as a housewife and a mother of three. If you ever

03:36find yourself with a ton of leftovers in your fridge, know that she can work with that.

03:40According to her,

03:42I'm quite a good cook. I'm like a closet home E.C. teacher. I can really cook anything.

03:48She doesn't seem to have fancy, pricey hobbies either, but she just loves sewing. Her co-worker

03:53Julianne Nicholson once said,

03:55I would go in the trailer and she would be sewing sleeping bags for Hazel's dolls.

04:00With show-stopping hair like that, you'd think she's all about those fancy grooming routines,

04:04right? But nah, not her. A former security guard spilled the beans, calling her a total hippie.

04:11He said,

04:12She'll go days without showering. She likes to save water. She's really green.

04:17And she likes the smell of her natural oils.

04:20Keanu Reeves once said,

04:22Money is the last thing I think about. I could live on what I have already made for the next

04:27few centuries. And let me tell you, he truly lives up to that.

04:31It seems that giving money is in his DNA.

04:34When negotiating his contract for the Matrix sequels,

04:37he ensured a big portion of his earnings went to the movie's special effects and costume design

04:41teams. Keanu ended up foregoing over $75 million in points. Instead, that money was spread out over

04:49dozens of Matrix crew members. The guy's also a big-time philanthropist, donating millions to

04:55various charities over the years. A family friend once said,

04:59Keanu's given away a lot of money, and done a lot more for people than most will ever know.

05:04He's been rocking pretty much the same laid-back, tailored outfit for, like, the past 25 years.

05:10He doesn't really care about being seen in public, wearing the exact same clothes.

05:14As one Redditor put it,

05:16Met Keanu Reeves when I was 14, and again when I was 17.

05:20Oddly enough, Neo was wearing the same t-shirt both times.

05:23David Beckham might have forgotten just how rich he is. Even though he has a net worth of over $450

05:29million, he's been talking about saving the pennies to spend on his family.

05:34It's more about spending time together, going for a simple dinner together.

05:38On social media, the soccer legend shares relatable everyday moments, like feeding chickens,

05:44taking his dogs for a walk, and traveling by train with Victoria and their kids.

05:48In real life, he's just as nice as he seems in his Netflix docuseries.

05:53His one-time teammate, Kobe Jones, described him as

05:56a down-to-earth guy. When his son's team played,

05:59he would join the other families for a post-game meal at Subway.

06:03Let's talk about another UK legend, Sir Paul McCartney.

06:07The former Beatle became the UK's first billionaire musician,

06:11but it seems he still enjoys the simple things in life.

06:14In 2023, for instance, this iconic figure opted for Pepe's pizza after a gig at Yale.

06:19And just before a concert in Brazil,

06:21he casually cruised through the streets of Sao Paulo in a Chery Tigo.

06:28If you don't like spending money, you have a lot in common with Dave Grohl.

06:32When he got his first credit card after Nirvana hit it big,

06:36his first purchase was dinner at Benihana.

06:38You might think that changed after years of leading the Foo Fighters and earning $333 million,

06:44but no. According to him, his money turns all moldy and smelly in his bank account.

06:49One of his top extravagances might have been a Tesla, which he described as impractical.

06:55He said,

06:55If something goes wrong with the Tesla, it's like trying to repair a satellite.

06:59There's nothing you can do.

07:02Just like Dave Grohl, the last name today is also his last name.

07:06The last name today is also a Grammy winner.

07:10Ed Sheeran

07:11He has a net worth of about $200 million, but he doesn't like to be wasteful.

07:17Several years ago, he revealed that he was still using the university account,

07:21giving himself an allowance of only around $1,000 a month.

07:26How did he spend his allowance, then?

07:29Well, according to his Instagram posts, his life is pretty amazing.

07:33But he does stuff you probably wouldn't expect from a millionaire.

07:36Like eating street food, cooking barbecues with friends, and even riding a mechanical bull.

07:42These down-to-earth celebs prove you don't need to live large just because you can.

07:47Enjoying the simple pleasures in life and staying grounded is way cooler than throwing money around.

07:52And if you happen to have that kind of money, why not share a bit, right?
