If you are interested to live or invest in Palm Beach, why not take a look at one of its most expensive properties on the market? The Ziff Family’s “Gemini,” is currently listed at $200M offering a hard to beat luxury to its soon to be owners, The Wall Street Journal reports.

Ziff of the Ziff-Davis publishing empire. Ziff-Davis is also a leading digital media company that caters to gaming, technology and men’s lifestyle.
