Location: Laucala, Lau Islands, Fiji
Purchased: $9.72 million*
Current Value: $14.22 million*

Laucala is one of a few small islands off the coast of Thurston Point, which is located in Fiji. These privately-owned islands are beautiful and exotic, and it costs between $7,000 and $36,000 a night to stay in the resort there.

Dietrich Mateschitz, the owner of Red Bull, an energy drink company, bought Laucala from its previous owner, a Forbes heir, for $9.72 million in 2003. Now, the island is worth at least $14.22 million, possibly more, considering the resort haven it has become. It has twenty-five bars on the island, each of which has its own theme.  

M H Red Bull gave him wings and he landed on one of the Fidji islands. Looks perfect !
