This building you're looking at looks like a regular building, except it's called Geneva Freeport.

0:03.4

It's in Switzerland. It holds roughly 1.2 million art pieces valued at. Ready? A hundred billion

0:10.0

dollars. Many of the art pieces in there are owned by millionaires and billionaires around the

0:14.8

world who have never seen the art. They've never touched it, but they store it here. The question

0:19.5

is why? And by the way, art historically as known as being the top three most unregulated industries

0:25.9

in the world behind drugs and sex prostitution. But why are so many investors, billionaires,

0:32.5

millionaires buying art? Why are they doing that? We're going to take a deep dive in that topic today.

0:44.4

So here's what we're going to be talking about. We're going to talk about the pros and cons of

0:47.2

investing into art. Who do players are? How big of a market is it? What are the most expensive

1:16.4

The last 18 years, the top 100 artists, their return has been roughly 8.9% while the S&P

1:23.6

1:28.4

There's a lot of good stories. There's a lot of bad stories. There's a lot of ugly stories. I'll

1:31.6

share a couple of them here with you. One of them is imagine buying an art piece that you sell

1:37.5

in 2005 for $10,000. And that art piece 12 years later sells for, you ready? $450 million. That's

1:48.2

this art piece here you're looking at called Savator Mundi. Here's what you need to know about the

1:52.9

story of Savator Mundi. So this art piece back in 1958. Sotheby's had it. They looked at it like,

1:58.0
