Dietrich Mateschitz

Georgina Prodhan reported Dietrich Mateschitz, who founded Red Bull with two Thai partners in 1984, is one of Austria's richest people," with a net worth of $7.1B, according to Forbes. Bernie Ecclestone is worth about $3.8B. Of course his daughters Tamara & Petra Ecclestone spent $3.5B In 9 Years, otherwise Ecclestone might be worth more. Reuters

Among the lavish, opulent, and ridiculously expensive things the two sisters spent their money on, are Petra’s £12 million wedding and Tamara’s £1 million crystal bathtub. They spent the entirety of their trust in less than ten years.

Here is a running tab of some of their latest expenditures:
