Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis return in the new season of BILLIONS this weekend, and shrewd businessman Bobby Axelrod (Lewis) is back trying to expand his estimated 10 billion dollar net worth by any means necessary.
Below are some ideas on how Bobby can spend his fortune:
Create a fully functional replica of Russian Space Station MIR – $4.2 Billion
While Bobby doesn’t have the $150 billion to build his own International Space Station, he can build its predecessor, the Russian station MIR. If Axe Capital headquarters orbits the earth, is it still subject to international law?
Buy every Canadian Hockey team –$7.125 Billion
In what would probably the most financially beneficial suggestion on this list, Bobby could purchase all seven Canadian NHL teams. He would have some of the biggest franchises in the sport, seven stable sources of revenue and almost $3 billion to spare.
Buy Marvel and Lucasfilm – $8.05 billion
In 2009 Disney purchased Marvel for $4 billion, and in 2012 Lucas Film was acquired for $4.05 billion. Bobby has the funds to purchase both, which would be fitting since he is basically a real-life Tony Stark, just swap the saving people with insider trading.
Purchase the Vatican and Vatican City – $10-$15 Billion
While Vatican City is pretty quiet about its GDP, estimates are between $10 – 15 billion. Bobby could not only own the beautiful artwork of St. Peters basilica but one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world.
BILLIONS Season 3 begins streaming Sunday, March 25 at 10 p.m. on CraveTV, day-and-date with SHOWTIME in the U.S.
