Talk about excessive spending,  appreciation and going up in value. This gold coin from 1880 sold 2.75 million or 687,500.00 times its face value.

What has always puzzles me is; who has that kind of money to squander it so foolishly? Probably the same kind of person that would build a house in Antillia Mumbai for 2 billion dollars.

Nita Ambani the owner of this monstrosity is married to Mukesh Ambani  head of Mumbai, India-based petrochemical giant Reliance Industries, and the fifth richest man in the world Lakshmi Mittal’

Nita has 600 full time staff members to maintain these hideous looking structure.

India is known as one of the most impoverished countries in the world. Wouldn’t it be a great humanitarian gesture of Mrs. Ambani built a “modest” house for $100,000,000.00  and gave the other $ 1,900,000,000.00 to some of the people starving in her country? Talk about over the top.
