Beyonce and Jay-Z are the center of the newest episode of VH1's "The Fabulous Life Of." Considering that hip-hop's power couple topped Forbes' list of Highest Earning Celebrity Couples last year and their combined net worth is an estimated $775 million, Jay-Z is right when he says, "I'm lucky, I'm a lucky person." Cue his usual hova laugh. This episode of "The Fabulous Life of" gave us the details about Beyonce and Jay-Z's assets as well as their very costly day to day life.
First, a look at their engagement. Beyonce and Jay-Z were married in April 2008 at Jay'z Tribeca penthouse in New York City. Friends Kanye West, P. Diddy, and Gwyneth Paltrow were in attendance with 40 people maximum at the ultra luxe affair. He bought Beyonce a 18 carat platinum $5 million giant sparkler of an engagement ring.

Beyonce wore $1.8 million emerald earrings for Obama's inauguration. Their total cost in bling? $17,632,000. This includes Beyonce's platinum wedding ring and her Lorraine Schwartz jewelry collection (which she wore to the Grammys one year - apparently worth $10 million).
Cars are next on the list. Mr. and Mrs. Carter own $4,107,000 worth of luxury cars. Beyoncé drives around in a million dollar Mercedes outfitted with a $150,000 sound system, wifi, and its own bathroom with a shower. She also owns an exclusive Porsche.
