Marc Andreessen Spent $255 Million On Malibu Property In 5 Months
The billionaire's newest Malibu acquisition has a huge painting over the stairs that reads "Money Talks" ... how fitting.

MALIBU, CA — Venture capitalist Marc Andreessen just bought a $34 million Malibu home, making his total Malibu tab $255 million in around five months.
The billionaire just picked up a two-bedroom Paradise Cove house, according to Dirt. The newest addition to his Malibu portfolio is adjacent to a $44.5 million home he bought in late March... which is right nearby a $177 million property he snatched up in November.
Andreessen, who built his fortune in the tech industry in Silicon Valley, made waves with his $177 million purchase, which was the most anyone has ever paid for a house in California. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos previously held the record with a $165 million mansion in Beverly Hills.

Based on Zillow photos, the new acquisition is as grand as the last. Sitting straight on the Malibu coast, the top floor feels like it's floating above the water and the bottom is one with the sand. The 3,600-square-foot home is flooded with natural light.
As staged, the home has a massive painting that reads "Money Talks" hanging over the stairwell... fitting. Who knows if Andreessen will keep it up.
