Paul Gascoigne – $1.5 Million, County Durham

Just recently, Paul Gascoigne was in several social media posts showing a quick run of his skills while playing football with his nephew. This skill is one of the many from his arsenal that made him one of the greatest and most successful football players of all-time. However, with a strange twist of faith, he needed to hire a bankruptcy attorney just to settle all of his financial trouble. What is remarkable about Gascoigne is that he was part of the team that reached fourth in the 1990 FIFA World Cup.

Amidst the various issues, he listed his former home in Greystones, County Durham, on the market for a whopping £1.2million or roughly $1.5 million in 2013. This property was undoubtedly one of the best-valued expenditures at the time. There is usually the tendency for celebrity-owned houses to appreciate in value, so long as they also take care of the property.
