Larry Page famously founded Google in a garage with his Stanford classmate Sergey Brin in 1998. Their company proved so successful that almost exactly 30 years later, he was able to drop US$32mil (RM153.36mil) for a 300-acre island called Cayo Norte in Puerto Rico.

Business Insider recently uncovered documents that show that in 2018 Page and his wife, Lucinda Southworth, purchased the private island through a limited-liability corporation called US Virgin Island Properties. It’s at least the fifth island he owns, including spots in the US Virgin Islands and Fiji, according to BI.
