What all do you have on your bucket list? Let me tell you mine, I want to make good money, be known for my work, get Googled by at least some people, own a HUGE house, a Benz, and well, have a world record someday.
Yeah, I know it is kinda silly, but… How cool it would be to have world record in YOUR name, when there are 7 billion people in the world! Do you get the picture?
Well, these 10 celebrities are kinda living my dream and I am not even close to achieving it. They’re rich, famous, get Googled like crazy, own multiple houses/resorts/hotels/villas, have countless Benz (and even better I am assuming) and also have a world record. Oh yes, they do!
