Becoming a Billionaire

So one of my primary goals is to become a billionaire. No, not a millionaire, a billionaire. In order to do this, I intend to build a huge company and invest and build real-estate. I love entrepreneurship (or at least the subject of it---I still have to actually engage in it) and my dream is to build enormous companies.

Why am I so bent on becoming a billionaire? Well, a few reasons. For one thing, I love luxury. To expand on that more I love architecture, gardens, furniture, and interior design. As a result, I have some dream homes that I plan to own, and the only way I will be able to own these dream homes is to be very wealthy. I also love fine automobiles, everything from Lamborghinis to Bentleys. Again, the only way to own these is to be wealthy. And I love yachts, private jets, and fabulous vacations. Again, this stuff requires wealth.

The other reasons are that there are a lot of things that I want to do that will require a lot of wealth. For example, I want to work at underwater exploration, at underwater flight as Graham Hawkes has been. That will require some money. I want to be able to study whatever I want and to fund my own research. I want to contribute a lot to philanthropy. I want to do a lot of work in the arts as an artist, but to do this requires money as one can't make much income from the arts.

I also want the ability to start any companies I think up. This, again, requires money. I want to develop real-estate and invest and so forth as well. Yes, one doesn't necessarilly need a billion-dollar net worth for all of this stuff, however for the homes I want, I think the cost of the home would be around $40 million to $50 million, which to comfortably afford, I'd prefer a $1 billion net worth at least.

Basically I want the ability to build and create things as I please, whether this be through scientific and engineering research or the arts. To get this wealth, I will have to succeed in building a huge company.
