Gianluca Vacchi and Dan Bilzerian are considered a God on the Internet for their opulent (near) billionaire lifestyles, with yachts, cars, mansions, and of course, beautiful women, like Vacchi's girlfriend Giorgia Gabriele.
But there's a new guy in town who lives what may be an even more lavish lifestyle -- on just pennies: Justin Ross Lee, with his girlfriend Kate Nardi.
Justin Ross Lee is an Instagram celebrity, who has found fame by being a self-proclaimed "travel hacker." Lee isn't an ultra wealthy entrepreneur like Gianluca Vacchi, but a regular guy who's figured out how to live like Vacchi and Giorgia Gabriele without spending money.
He stays in the top hotels, spends his days on yachts, and travels in the finest of comforts with his (arguably even more beautiful) girlfriend Kate Nardi.
Who are Justin Ross Lee and Kate Nardi?
So who is this guy? Lee takes advantage of "opportunities" in the travel industry, such as using frequent flyer miles to fly first-class, buying refundable airline tickets just to use the amenities, and showing fake business cards to get perks, according to Ben Schlappig, of the blog One Mile at a Time.

But Can Justin Ross Lee and Kate Nardi Really Compare to the King, Gianluca Vacchi and Queen, Giorgia Gabriele?
So how do Justin Ross Lee and Kate Nardi compare to Gianluca Vacchi and Giorgia Gabriele? We'd say they're pretty even at this point. Here are a few pictures of Vacchi and his girlfriend Giorgia Gabriele on their travels:
Or Is Justin Ross Lee More Like Dan Bilzerian?
But Justin Ross Lee and Kate Nardi also have a wild side, like Instagram playboy Dan Bilzerian.
According to FlyerTalk, Justin Ross Lee " has been banned from a number of establishments for his contentious acts, the most recent of which occurred aboard a Japan Airlines flight." Here's a picture of what Lee and Nardi did:
Here are some of Dan Bilzerian's wild pics:
So what you think? Gianluca Vacchi may be the king, but he better watch out, because there may just be a new king in town.
