A day in the life of the rich and famous : Glimpse into the routines of some of the most iconic figures of the century 

21 Feb 2021

By Patrick de Kretser Being famous can be awfully tedious at times, and I mean that without any intended sarcasm. It is not always the easiest task to manage a schedule which has you getting recognised by hundreds, if not thousands, of people every single day, especially when it always seems like your life is constantly under the spotlight and every little thing you do ends up being scribbled on the front of some tabloid magazine cover and labelled as a breaking new story. But it is quite a convenient way for us to get a closer look into the lives of some of the most iconic and inspirational people out there and what exactly they do to keep up to speed with life in the fast lane. So, how about we do that today and take a look at a few I have picked out? You never know what you might discover about some of your icons who could have your jaw drop in astonishment – this is what this article is here for today. Elon Musk It is not every day that you wake up to the fact that you are now the richest man on the planet, but it really was no surprise considering how much Elon Musk does in the aerospace industry. Reading the book on him by Ashlee Vance really opens your eyes to just how busy his schedule is, as he is constantly travelling from one part of America to the other in order to fulfil his obligations as a Chief Executive Officer. His stressful lifestyle can only be attributed to his insane workaholic nature, as most people in his position would never want to take on as much responsibilities as he does without catching a break on occasion. But then again, maybe that is what sets him apart and transformed him into the richest man in the world. Keanu Reeves Everyone’s favourite Hollywood star is very well known for being not so well known outside the public spotlight. Reeves probably has the most isolated personal life out of any star that is currently working in Hollywood, as his introverted nature combined with a contentment for the simple things of life has led him staying away from most of the lavish antics and hobbies that most other stars find themselves engaged in these days. He is heavily involved in philanthropy and helping the less fortunate to make their way up in the world. When he is not busy doing those things, he can sometimes be seen travelling by subway to either his workplace or a small café. Safe to say, Reeves has always been a supporter of a daily routine that is identical to what most of us would follow as well. Floyd Mayweather If Keanu Reeves is the perfect example of living a simple and humble life, then Floyd Mayweather defines the exact opposite. While Mayweather is famously known for being one of the greatest boxers of all time, he is also notoriously known for his lavish lifestyle and his love for putting together a rather expensive car collection. The boxing great owns three mansions located in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Miami, with his Las Vegas one being the most recent addition to the luxurious collection. Mayweather also has a rather fond interest in his car collection, which is reportedly said to be worth over £ 20 million. Although, you cannot completely blame him for indulging, given that he is one of the rare sportsmen that has managed to earn over $ 1 billion during his career. But here’s hoping that he still keeps a sizable budget for his training sessions, as he will need it when he fights Logan Paul not too long from now. Tiger Woods Turns out golf stars live equally lavish lifestyles just like any other celebrity or sports icon. Tiger Woods has been no stranger to that lifestyle, and golf fans out there who have been following him throughout his career would know. Woods’ personal life involves a keen fondness he has for a mansion he owns in Florida that spans 10 acres, which he built from scratch at a cost of $ 55 million. Part of the reason he probably enjoys living around Florida is because it goes well with the yacht he owns, which is worth around $ 25 million. Suffice to say, living near the seaside is far better when you actually have a luxury boat to go with your beach house.
