14. Quite A Baller 

I once read about Paul Allen, the late co-founder of Microsoft. Who owned a 414-foot mega-yacht complete with a basketball court on one of its decks. It was not uncommon for basketballs to go overboard during games. To solve this problem, Allen hired someone to follow the yacht in a smaller boat. Specifically tasked with retrieving any basketballs that escaped into the water. His solution showcased both his dedication to enjoying his hobbies and his ability to solve any challenges that arose creatively.
