What would you do if your net worth were $22 billion? If you were Indian businessman Mukesh Ambani, you might build yourself the world's most expensive home. As designed by Chicago architecture firm Perkins + Will, the in-progress glass-tower is estimated at $1 billion and is known to feature, at the least, a health club, multiple "safe" rooms, 3 helipads, 168 parking spaces and require 600 servants to maintain, and physically, the structure stands at 27 stories, or 570 feet tall.

You gotta be sh***ing me.  Y'know, to have this much money in a poor country like India is more than criminal.  I wouldn't be surprised if someone got real pissed off and twin towered that baby.

Just as long as he's not building it in Chicago. We've got enough fugly assed architecture, what with Trump's building that is supposed to overshadow some more famous landmarks. ::)
