Mystery Malaysian buys RM14.5b yacht..for real?!!!

A mysterious Malaysian businessman has reportedly splashed out a massive £3 billion (RM14.5billion) on a gold and platinum yacht made using 100,000kg of precious metals.
The 'History Supreme' yachtwhich even has a solid gold anchor stands out even when compared to other billionaires' toys. It was created by Liverpool-based jeweller Stuart Hughes.
It took him three years to complete and the entire base of the 100ft vessel is wrapped in solid gold, along with most other features on-board.
the interior of the yacht.cool!!

The main sleeping quarter is adorned with platinum accents and has a wall feature made from meteoric stone and a genuine T-Rex dinosaur bone. (For what do you need a bone? it's still a bone!!!)
Speaking to Newslite, Stuart Hughes said: "I was commissioned for the "History Supreme" project by an anonymous Malaysian business man who wanted something really special."

"It was probably the most mammoth task I have undertaken so far, there was three years of planning and it was very difficult to get right."

"The project uses 100,000 kilograms of solid gold and platinum and all features including the deck," he said.
Are you being serious? that's 100,000 kgs??!!! Making the boat float was a gargantuan feat then!!
