30 Excessive Million Dollar Items

Ways for Christiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid to Spend Dinero

— June 11, 2009 — Luxury
Christiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid (the team that bought him) would likely be able to purchase multiple items from these million dollar masterpieces. Why do we say that? Because soccer playing superstar Christiano Ronaldo sold to Real Madrid for $131 million.

Luxury seems to be flowing all around us, and for Ronaldo, he's now swimming in it (not like he wasn't before).

Enjoy! It's okay to dream, and drool (whatever is necessary).

Implications - Despite the recent economic downturn, there exists an elitist group of high-spending consumers who are willing to invest large sums of money. Such individuals are looking for unique and ritzy ways to both preserve and enhance their esteemed status within society. Businesses that offer a wide range of high-end goods will fare well amongst this small group of consumers.
