Damien Hirst has admitted that he used treat property “a bit like Monopoly” and would even buy the villas he stayed in each time he went on holiday.
The artist who was once at the centre of the “Brit Pack” scene of the Nineties – also referred to as the Young British Artists or YBAs – is believed to be the UK’s richest living artist, and in 2020 was reported to have a net worth of more than £315m.
