Got $250M? Bernard Marcus did and with it he built the world’s largest aquarium in Atlanta, Georgia. The place is huge and houses many specimens, the largest of which are four whale sharks and three beluga whales. The Georgia Aquarium was not conceived merely as a tourist attraction, but Mr. Marcus wanted it to promote the conservation of our oceans and to develop one of the greatest marine research and conservation facilities in the world. It seems they are well on their way.
