You know you’ve made it when the word “millionaire” tags along with your name. But more money doesn’t always mean more sense. If you’re curious about what even the biggest spenders might hesitate on, read on! Here’s a longer look at 18 items even those with fat wallets would think thrice about.
The World’s Largest Rubber Duck Collection
Every child loves that tiny rubber duckie that goes “squeak” in the tub. But can you imagine dedicating an entire mansion wing to these rubber wonders? It’s definitely a thing. But even if you had money piled to the ceiling, would you want a rubbery audience every time you took a bath? Maybe let’s just keep one or two classics.
Overpriced Bottled Air
Breathe in, breathe out! Now, imagine paying for that! Some folks are shelling out for air bottled from far-off lands, claiming it’s fresher. But if you’re a millionaire sitting in your penthouse, wouldn’t you prefer the breeze from an open window over some bottled gust?
NFTs (Digital Art)
Digital art, especially NFTs, has folks in a frenzy. Some of these digital wonders go for the price of mansions. But it’s just a bunch of pixels on a screen. And let’s be real, it’s not like you can show it off on your wall at home. Why not just cherish and frame that cute crayon scribble your child gifted you last Christmas?
Cryptocurrency Adventures
You’ve seen it on the news – folks turning into overnight millionaires with Bitcoin and its buddies. But the crypto world is a rollercoaster! You might be up today and down tomorrow. Why gamble away your fortune when the jingle of coins in your pocket is music enough?
Brand New Sports Cars Every Year
Speed, luxury, that new car smell – it’s tempting! But getting a new model every year? Those cars devalue faster than last year’s fashion. Plus, how many cars can one person drive? Instead of a garage resembling a car dealership, perhaps a good old classic that ages like fine wine is the way to go.
Luxury Boats and Floating Mansions
Yachts are impressive, no doubt. They’re like five-star hotels, but on water. Yet, the maintenance is a nightmare! Not to mention the rocky waves and potential seasickness. With millions in the bank, you’re better off chartering a yacht for special occasions instead of owning a floating money pit.
Private Islands
“I own an island” is quite the statement. But the logistics! Mosquitoes, isolation, and you’ve got to remember to stock up on everything. Sure, it sounds like a dream. But wouldn’t a beautiful beachfront mansion, with amenities nearby, be a tad more convenient?
The Latest Designer Outfits & Purses
Haute couture might turn heads on the runway. But is it practical for a Tuesday afternoon? Some outfits cost an arm and a leg and can be worn just once. Why not rock stylish, affordable brands and leave the hyper-expensive tags for the dummies?
Exotic Animals as House Pets
A pet lion might sound cool, in theory. But where would it sleep? The garage? Exotic pets come with exotic challenges. Instead of turning your home into a mini-zoo, maybe adopting a rescue pet would provide just as many cuddles without the chaos.
Showering in Fancy Water
There are those who believe in the wonders of unique mineral waters for showers. It’s said to refresh and rejuvenate. But let’s get real, is there anything wrong with a regular tap? With millions, you should invest in a luxurious bath bomb and enjoy a simple soak.
Gold-Plated Toilet Seats
A bathroom throne fit for royalty! But practicality aside, isn’t gold a tad chilly? The novelty might sound appealing, but the reality is a cold wake-up call on a winter morning. Comfort trumps luxury, and there’s nothing like a fuzzy toilet seat cover to keep things cozy.
Super Expensive Super Bowl Tickets
The thrill of the Super Bowl, live! But those VIP tickets could cost as much as a small apartment. Why spend that when you could have the boys over for a game night at home? Big screen, comfy couches, and no lines for snacks. Touchdown!
Genuine Fur Coats
Furs might have been the rage in old Hollywood. But in an era of animal rights and synthetic alternatives, do you really want to wear something that was once roaming free? Plus, faux fur offers warmth without guilt.
The Priciest Pen in the World
A pen that costs as much as a car? Sure, it’s encrusted with jewels and precious metals. But at the end of the day, it’s for writing, right? You should opt for a trusty ballpoint that gets the job done without the fear of misplacing it.
Gifts for Those Ungrateful Relatives
Remember when Aunt Linda barely acknowledged your thoughtful gift? Why burn money on extravagant gifts for folks who wouldn’t appreciate it? Sometimes a heartfelt note or meaningful gesture holds more value than the priciest trinkets.
A Space Trip Ticket
The final frontier! But is space tourism worth the astronomical price tag? Zero gravity might be fun for a minute, but the risks are out of this world. Maybe a trip to a planetarium or a telescope to stargaze from your backyard would suffice.
Giant Diamond-Studded Statues
A lawn ornament that screams luxury! But also, “Come rob me.” Instead of flashy displays, why not invest in art that can be enjoyed indoors? Or perhaps, a lovely garden gnome to watch over your greens without attracting too much attention.
Haunted Castles
History, charm, and… ghosts? Sure, it’s a conversation starter, but think about those heating bills and possibly a ghost roommate who isn’t too thrilled about you. A modern mansion with no unexplained noises in the night might be a wiser choice.
