What can you buy for $100 million?

One hundred million dollars can buy a lot of house, so much house that such pricey properties are actually rare to find. They are located in the most sought-after zip codes, have stunning views, are typically humongous, opulent and made of materials most of us probably haven't even heard of. So if you're interested in owning a property so big it warrants its own name, like Xanadu, these may be for you.
