Olympic facilities, Beijing, China, cost: $47.6 billion
Topping our list, the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing cost a staggering $40 billion in 2008, equivalent to $47.6 billion in today’s money. Yet over a decade later the venues are a mess. The volleyball stadium (pictured) is filled with rotting wood, watersports arenas have run dry and mascots lie abandoned.
