When it comes to businessmen, you can expect them to make smart and practical investments that they can use for both fun and leisure. That certainly applies to this pioneering investor from Australia, who purchased a Sikorsky S-76 helicopter for a cool $13 million.

Just counting all the zeroes on that is making us see double—but given the ride’s specs, which are 2 turboshaft engines, modern landing gear, and enough room for 12 people, it’s well worth every penny. Besides, this won’t even make a dent on his credit. The man’s got more than enough to buy a second one in a different color.
