Think your rent is too high? Then this story will either amuse you, or REALLY annoy you. The most expensive home in the United States has just sold…for a cool $238-million. The owner? New York Hedge Funder Ken Griffin.

Among his properties, Griffin has a $58.75-million condo in Chicago; a $60-million penthouse in Miami at Faena House; a $122-million London mansion…and $250-million worth of land to build a Palm Beach compound. Aside from property, he also likes art. In 2016, the billionaire spent a total of $500-million for a pair of works by the famous abstract expressionist artists. He dropped $200-million for a Jackson Pollock painting and $300-mill for a Willem de Kooning. And ladies? He appears to be single. Griffin and his second wife divorced in October 2015.
