    Wink How was your day?

    A day in the life of the wealthy...

    65' custom-built motor yacht complete with 4 staterooms, a state-of-the-art galley, GPS System and radar for navigation, twin supercharged diesel engines, etc. $4,500,000.00

    Champagne, chocolate covered strawberries with cream and music dockside for the excited 'soon to be owners' and a small group of friends. $500.00








    Two corporate representatives, crane, and rigging complete with faulty turnbuckle. $2,500/hour

    (Note the guy in the stern!)








    Watching your dreamboat nose dive into the harbor, accompanied by two corporate representatives just prior to 'inking' the final paperwork...



    Priceless!


    So, how was your day?

    You know Michael, you *really* should find something better to do with your millions than sinking it into a yacht.

    True story except the price of the yacht and the champagne and strawberries were exaggerated.
