And he'll have even more cash after he sells Old Wind Farm, his 75-plus-acre estate in the back country of swanky Greenwich, Connecticut. It recently hit the market for a bank account-busting $39.5 million—coincidentally, that's about the budget of Apocalypto.

The Elizabethan inspired Tudor behemoth clocks in at a whopping 15,862-square feet with 15 bedrooms, 12 full and six half bathrooms.
