What A Waste Of Money
Those of us that have money to do whatever they want, buy some really stupid stuff.
Take for instance, the Platinum iPhone. This "limited edition" is encased in 24k platinum, with the back having a total of 46 diamonds where each stone is a minimum of at least 0.50 carat, and on the front it has 53 diamonds totaling 0.36 carat.
The only upside to the whole thing is that it has been made scratch proof, so at least all of that platinum won't get all marked up.
The company is only making 200 of them, and you can purchase one for 7,000 euros (about $10,000).
That's right, ten grand to make a $200 product all done up in platinum. I can only hope that whoever buys these has them stolen.
