Beyoncé and Jay-Z are the closest thing to royalty the United States has. Unparalleled in their success, Beyoncé Knowles and Jay-Z (real name Shawn Carter) are pop culture juggernauts who inspire awe in the rest of us mere mortals. They are pioneers in every sense of the word, from their style to their music to their seemingly effortless way of just looking so darn good all the time. All hail the queen and her king!

Hook: Jay-Z You know it's crew love, Roc-A-Fella till we die As long as you and I keep it movin like a drive-by We could stack dough sky-high Niggas can't touch what they can't feel, real. By the time Jay-Z released the single “Dead Presidents” and dropped a video that featured Biggie and AZ playing monopoly with real money, the streets were convinced. What did Jay-Z do after Reasonable Doubt? He created a legendary career that make him the Greatest MC of All Time. Why do I say this?

Jay and Bey aren't exactly known for keeping the lowest of profiles, or living a super humble lifestyle, either. Hey, no judgment here — if you've got it, flaunt it. Plus, it's a well-known fact that Jay-Z grew up in the notorious Marcy Projects in Brooklyn and transformed himself into quite the business-savvy investor, according to Billboard. And, as noted by W magazine, Beyoncé was born into a comfortable middle-class family in Texas, her mother a salon owner and her father a sales executive for Xerox. Translation: there were no silver spoons for either of them as kids.

But now that they're on top of the world, they are living their best lives. Here's an inside look at Beyoncé and Jay-Z's insanely glamorous life together.

Beyonce and Jay-Z are worth over a billion dollars

In order to contextualize Beyoncé and Jay-Z's super lavish lifestyle, it first helps to understand how much cash they have and how they keep the green coming in. According to Forbes, the Carters are worth... wait for it... $1.255 billion dollars, as of July of 2018.

Interestingly enough, Beyoncé is only valued at $355 million compared to her husband's $900 million, but that doesn't tell the full story. Beyoncé's income comes mostly from her album sales and concert earnings, which tend to be larger than her husband's. Conversely, Jay-Z's income comes mostly as a result of his investments, such as his significant ownership of the streaming company Tidal. Obviously, both celebs have their strengths and both play to them well.

So now you know what Beyoncé means when she says, 'My great-great-grandchildren already rich,' as she did on 'Boss' from her and Jay-Z's joint album Everything Is Love. Indeed, they are.

Jay-Z's swanky Tribeca loft

According to the Observer, the Tribeca neighborhood in New York City is one of the most desirable parts of the entire area. It makes sense, then, that that's where Jay-Z would want to purchase a home. With no shortage of restaurants and plenty of neighborhood charm, it's an ideal place for the Carters to nest when they're in the Big Apple.

Jay-Z bought his seventh-floor penthouse in 2004 for a cool $6.85 million, according to another article in the Observer. That was before he and his now-wife got married, so, conceivably, this was his final bachelor pad, likely one with a heck of a view. The 8,000-square foot apartment is comprised of 5,000 indoor square feet and 3,000 square feet of terrace space. Talk about living the city dream.

The celebs officially tied the knot there in an intimate ceremony in April 2008, according to People magazine. Lest you think the ceremony was informal, the apartment was decorated with 70,000 dendrobium orchids that Beyoncé and Jay-Z flew in from Thailand. That's the definition of extra.

Of course, Beyonce and Jay-Z have a mansion in Bel-Air

Having a swanky New York City pad isn't going to cut it on its own for Beyoncé and Jay-Z. To that end, the couple has quite a diverse real estate portfolio, including a mansion in Bel-Air that's the stuff of dreams. They purchased the estate in 2017, according to W magazine, for approximately $90 million. Among the amenities, it boasts a helipad, four pools (really!), a tennis court, wellness facilities and a spa, and an entire complex for entertainment, according to another article in W magazine. That's some serious opulence right there.

The Los Angeles Times reported that the Carters' Los Angeles digs was developed by Dean McKillen, who is the son of Paddy McKillen, an Irish property investor who also happens to be a billionaire. Plus, in addition to the other amenities, the 30,000-square foot, six-structure compound has a basketball court, a 15-car garage, and separate staff residences. And just to be sure, the glass in the external doors and windows is bullet-proof. You never know, right?

A residence in the Hamptons? Check.

Music's first couple couldn't possibly be content with only one home in New York. To that end, they picked up a second Empire State residence not long after acquiring their Bel-Air abode, and this one is the epitome of deluxe. According toBehind the Hedges, the Carters plunked down $26 million on a waterfront residence in East Hampton (Of course, it's in The Hamptons — where else do wealthy NYCers spend their summers?). That's significantly less than Beyoncé and Jay-Z's Cali pad, but still!

Known as the Pond House, the 12,000-square foot mansion sits on two acres of lush greenery adjacent to Georgica Pond. Inside, the estate boasts seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms, hand-carved marble tubs that are heated, white oak paneling, and parquet de Versailles floors that were hand-pegged, according to Zillow. Outside there's an infinity pool and an grilling area for those warm summer evenings.

To top it all off, there's a 1,800-square foot guesthouse with all of the fixings, in case seven bedrooms just wasn't cutting it. Like we said, it's deluxe.

Don't forget Beyonce and Jay-Z's Garden District Palace

New York City? Check. Los Angeles? Check. East Hampton? Check. But those aren't the only cities that the Carters can call home, as both Curbed and Zillow reported that Beyoncé and Jay-Z likely purchased a stunning residence in the Big Easy in 2015. Specifically, it looks like they are the proud owners of a $2.6 million home in the Garden District that used to be both a Presbyterian Church and a ballet school. Talk about a unique diamond in the rough!

At 13,292 square feet, the NOLA estate is a sprawling beauty, with soaring 26-foot ceilings — so there's plenty of light-filled space in every room. Plus it has elegant touches throughout, including floor-to-ceiling bookshelves in the library, polished hardwood floors, and a master suite worthy of royalty, claw foot bathtub included. There's even a large roof-top garden with city views, so farm-to-table dinners could easily be a reality.

Given that Beyoncé's sister, Solange, co-owns a shop in the French Quarter, perhaps that's where they stay when they visit her.

Beyonce and Jay-Z boast a world-famous car collection

Just as Beyoncé Knowles and Shawn Carter have a fabulous collection of homes, so too do they have an equally enviable collection of automobiles, according to the Fabulous Life specialon Beyoncé and Jay-Z. For one, Queen Bey's vehicle of choice is a black Mercedes van that reportedly cost $1 million with a full bathroom inside. It's also equipped with a $150,000 sound system and is upholstered with 'cream-colored Italian leather.' If she's not feeling like piloting the mom van for the day, she can always jump behind the wheel of her $500,000 Mercedes McLaren SLR — that's a super swanky sports car.

But it's Jay-Z who's especially well-known for his car collection, which includes a $107,000 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, a Ferrari F430 worth up to $275,000, and a Pagani Zonda F reportedly worth $2.5 million, to name a few. Could you imagine what it's like to drive those?

Not to be outdone by her parents, daughter Blue Ivy also has some custom-made vehicles to bumble
