Owning exotic pets

There are dog people, there are cat people, there are bird people. Normally, people would be glad to have a simple and ordinary animal companion. But since you are rich, why not take it to the next level? Provided that you have all the legal papers that you need to own an exotic or rare animal, then why not? The more rare the animal, the better. Have you tried owning a wolf or maybe something as cool as an American eagle or a Bengal tiger? That would be sick and cool. Elvis had his kangaroo, Clooney had a pig and Salvador Dali? An anteater.
