The Most Famous Gifts and Fine Jewelry in Sports

What good is a multi-million dollar salary, if you don't indulge?  

Diamonds come in as many colors as Lucky Charm marshmallows, you have 32 teeth (unless you're a hockey player) awaiting to be gilded, there are hangars to store your private jets, marinas for your private yachts; not even the sky is the limit (looking to buy some lunar real estate? Look no further.)

Click on to see some of the most extravagant purchases for or by athletes.
