A closer look at Kim Dotcom, the larger-than-life founder of Megaupload
Quote:
You probably heard about yesterday?s federal government takedown of popular file sharing site Megaupload. You may have even heard about the luxury items that were impounded by the Feds. What you may not be familiar with, however, is the face of Megupload.
37-year-old Kim Dotcom (formerly Kim Schmitz) is the German founder of Megaupload. Dotcom?s lifestyle fits his physical presence: larger-than-life. He?s reportedly 6′ 7″ tall and weighs over 300 pounds. Dotcom?s life resembles something you?d see in a rap video: plenty of bling, scantily-clad women, and criminal charges to boot.
To say that Dotcom has a lavish life would be an understatement. He bought his New Zealand mansion for NZ$30 million (over $24 million USD). When his property was seized, several theater-sized TVs were hauled in, including an 82-inch Samsung TV and a 108-inch Sharp set. A laundry list of premium vehicles was included as well, including a 1959 Cadillac convertible, 1957 El Dorado, 1989 Lamborghini LM002, 2008 Rolls Royce Phantom, and a 2012 Toyota Vellfire. Several Mercedes-Benzes, motorcycles, and a jetski were also taken away.
