If you have been wondering where all the money you have been paying for gas has been going, here is your answer. You have been helping the head of petrochemical giant Reliance Industries, Mukesh Ambani, build this:
When finished, this 400,000 square foot home will have 27 stories and cost $2 billion. It has the same layout of a hotel or condominium but only 5 people will be living here. If that doesn’t sound unnecessary enough, it will also have 6 stories of parking space, a hanging garden, a home theater and an ice room complete with man made snow.
Pizza
A frozen pizza from Wal-Mart will cost you around $4. If you want it cooked for you and delivered, a pizza will cost approximately $15. So why would anyone feel the need to make a pizza that costs $1,000?
This pizza is topped with six types of caviar and lobster tail. Apparently, the caviar is a delicacy comprised of sturgeon roe and the roe of other fish from the sea and the pizza costs owner, Nino Selimaj, $720 just to make it.
A Scottish chef topped this when he made a pizza that sold for $4,200 on Ebay. However, it was made for a promotional charity and one like it hasn’t been sold since. Just for the record, it was made with lobster marinated in cognac, caviar soaked in champagne, Scottish smoked salmon, venison, vintage basalmic vinegar, proscuitto and topped with a large edible helping of 24-carat gold flakes.
I wonder how it tastes
Chocolate
Richard Donnelly decided that Hershey’s kisses weren’t good enough for the rich man. That’s why he started selling his chocolate for $75 per pound. However, he was no match for Knipschildt Chocolatier’s $250 dark chocolate truffle. That’s right, Fritz Knipschildt charges approximately $2,600 per pound for his French black truffle dusted with cocoa powde
Water
If you are one of the people who think that tap water is only good enough for your yard, you probably spend a lot of money on bottled water. Hawaii Deep Marine Inc. understands your concern for top quality water and has begun selling deep seawater costing $33.50 for 2 oz. It is extracted from a depth of 915 feet from the waters surrounding Hawaii.
Of course, if you are in the club and decide to opt for water over alcohol, you can spend $50-$60 or more for a 750ml bottle of Bling H2O. The water has a nine-step purification process and is bottled in frosted Swarovski crystal bottles and then corked (for freshness, I assume). Kevin G. Boyd created a bottled water for extremely rich individuals willing to pay way too much for a simple bottle of water.
Coffee
We can both agree that Starbucks charges too much for a cup of coffee. If you don’t agree, you’re probably filthy rich or you work for Starbucks. Perhaps you’d rather spend $600 per pound on rare, Indonesian, pooped-out coffee beans.
Supposedly, the Kopi Luwak coffee gets its unique flavor from coffee beans that have been eaten by a weasel-like creature and then excreted. Locals then sort through poo and pick out the partially digested coffee beans which they use to make coffee that sells for around $50 per cup.
Cell Phone
Although you can live without a cellphone, it has become a basic part of today’s society. If you want to stand out in a crowd, you either have to spend a couple bucks on the hottest new ring tones or spend $1,300,000 on your phone. The Diamond Crypto Smartphone comes complete with a platinum body with 50 diamonds in it, 10 of which are a rare blue diamond. The navigation key and logo are made of 18 carat rose gold and it is capable of e-mail, internet, WAP, JAVA support, SMS, MMS and has a media player.
Toilet Paper
What are the qualities you look for when shopping for toilet paper? It has to be soft, absorbent and strong. Oh, and it should be sleek and elegant. You know, to match your style. For $15-$20 for a 3-pack you can buy stylish Renova toilet paper in many different designer colors, including black. It seems like a waste, since you’re just going to wipe your ass with it.
