An American billionaire, Haim Saban, went from living in his one-bed flat to owning a $90 million superyacht that is more like a floating castle, thanks to the Power Rangers.

Power Rangers billionaire Haim Saban’s 257-foot superyacht is one for the ages, with the massive vessel featuring some of the most incredible luxury you will ever see.

Born in Alexandria, Egypt, Saban once lived in a cramped, one-room flat before he gained his fortune, much of which came from bringing the Power Rangers to the West.

His rise to fame and glory is remarkable, culminating in the giant luxury superyacht.

How the American billionaire amassed his fortune

Currently 80 years old, Saban is worth $3.3 billion according to Forbes, which is a jaw-dropping figure.

Saban moved with his family to Tel Aviv when he was younger, living in a one-room flat.

In the 1980s, he relocated to Los Angeles, shifting from a career in music to one in TV and children’s entertainment.

It was through this work that he managed to license the Japanese show Super Sentai.

This was the show that Saban was able to adapt into Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, which launched in 1993.

That show has gone on to big success ever since, and is now watched by kids around the world.

Alongside wife Cheryl, Saban set up the Saban Family Foundation in 1999.

This supports medical, children’s, and educational programs across the U.S. and Israel.

Saban’s superyacht truly is a sight to behold

Costing $90 million, the giant superyacht that Saban and his family use is packed with luxury.

Measuring 257 feet long, the yacht is called the Eminence, and the billionaire acquired it in 2019.

Before this, the Eminence had undergone a major refit the year before.

Inside, there are five decks, able to sleep 12 guests in eight stunning suites.

Not only that, but there are features such as a private cinema, a sauna, and an expansive beach club section.

The yacht also boasts its own sundeck, a huge pool that inflates and extends into the sea, and Alfresco dining locations.

Having made so much money, it’s no wonder that Saban wants to indulge in it on this glorious superyacht.
