Most parents support their children's hobbies by paying for classes, buying equipment, or maybe taking them to a few competitions. But when you are Bill Gates, one of the richest people in the world and the co-founder of Microsoft, that support looks very different. Instead of just extending a little help, Gates went all out for his daughter Jennifer's love of horse riding. Reports say he spent over USD 38 million (approximately Rs. 317 crore in Indian Rupees) to buy almost an entire street in Wellington, Florida, just so she could have the best place to follow her passion.
It all started in 2011 when the Gates family first rented a home in the area. But over time, they began buying up several properties in the Mallet Hill Court neighborhood, a well-known spot among horse lovers. These purchases turned the area into a private space just for Jennifer, complete with large homes, stables, and everything needed for horse training and riding.
