Here's one article, and here's a comprehensive list of what he's done with his skrilla in a few little years.
-At least two yachts and a gulfstream jet.
-Two private islands in the Bahamas.
-Paid $500,000 for a Lamborghini confiscated from the Shah of Iran which was worth $250 – 300,000
-A dinosaur skull that Cage purchased in 2007 for $276,000 in a heated auction with Leonardo DiCaprio.
-In June 2004, he owned 18 motorcycles and 30 cars, a member of his entourage says. And that was on the low end: At another point, two sources say, the car total was around 50. -At one point, Cage was snapping up cars at a rate of about “one per month.”
-Cage’s pet collection, which in addition to a handful of purebred dogs, included highly expensive rare birds and a host of expensive lizards, snakes, and other creepy crawlies and an octopus farm.
-Two actual castles, one in Bath, England, and another in Etzelwang, Germany
-He also had two albino King Cobras (Moby and Sheba), as well as ‘an antidote serum on the wall, so that if you got bit by a snake you could save yourself, which he paid vast amounts of money to harvest.'
He's suing his ex-manager for "bad finance handling."
What a champ.
Here's the mausoleum.
