Russian billionaire investor Yuri Milner (pictured above)  has bought a French chateau-style mansion in Silicon Valley for $100 million, making it among the most expensive single-family home sales in U.S. history, according to  the Wall Street Journal.

The limestone mansion runs more than 30,000 square feet and has a ballroom, home theater, wine cellar, tennis courts and indoor and outdoor pools. It was completed around 2008, according to an architect who helped design the home, the Journal said.

Milner is CEO of Moscow-based Digital Sky Technologies, which has made large capital investments in Facebook Inc., GROUPON and “Farmville” game maker Zynga Inc., among others. Milner’s primary residence is still in Moscow, sources say he has no plans to move in the $100 Million Dollar Silicon Valley mansion anytime soon.

On this date, 16 years ago, we lost Hip Hop icon, Eric “Eazy -E” Wright.  Wright died on March 26th 1995 ten days after anouncing he had contracted the AIDS virus.  Eazy E is known for creating hip hop rap group NWA, Dr. Dre, and Bone Thugs N Harmony.  In 1986, at the age of 23, Wright had allegedly earned as much as $250,000 from dealing drugs. However, he decided that he could make a better living by becoming involved with the Los Angeles hip-hop scene, which was growing rapidly in popularity. He then began recording songs during the mid-1980s in the garage of his parents’ home.
