if you were rich would buy this?

[imandia4]

I think this is ridiculous!!!!! If you were rich would you want to buy a $10,000 drink? I saw this on extreme bar hopping last night. I was kinda disgusted.

 

 

Recession? Not at club XS, where there’s a $10,000 drink on the menu

  Normally I leave the club writing to our men-about-town, Norm Clarke
and Doug Elfman, but this one is too rich too pass up.

  Quite literally, it’s way too rich for my tastes. At club XS inside
Encore, Steve Wynn, Roger Thomas, and Victor Drai have combined with
managing partners Cy and Jesse Watts to create the latest in ultra
exclusive lounges. It’s hip, it’s now, it’s arty, it’s sexy. It ain’t
no sports bar, cousin. It features 95 VIP tables, 30 VIP cabanas, and
an atmosphere that figures to attract the celebrity elite for years to
come.

  But my favorite feature is called the Ono, a cocktail made with
ritzy Charlie 1981 champagne, and Louis XIII de Remy Martin Black
Pearl cognac.

  And those are the bartender’s cufflinks at the bottom of the glass.
Each Ono comes with a sterling silver cufflink and an 18K white gold
chain with a black pearl pendant and the XS logo.

  The price?

  A cool $10,000.

  I think I’ll stick with my shot-and-a-beer. If I want to upgrade,
I’ll just drop my watch in the glass.

oh i saw this too but a while back... its just stupid IMO

[michelle121003]

I can think of a billion other things to spend that kind of money on...even if I had money to throw away like that!!

[myfoursonsks]

Was it the one with the gold in it?  I have seen something like that before and they actually showed people ordering and drinking them. There is no way I would do that.  The only people that would do that are just people that want to flaunt how much money they have.

IF I ever get rich, I will be the same, money saving me! I wouldn't buy crazy stuff like this!

[De_Chick]

I wouldn't spend ten bucks on one drink much less ten thousand..lol 

[JulyBabies]

No way. Rich or not rich, I know the value of a dollar

[imandia4]

YEAH! And the girl in her high pitched gold digging voice said" It does taste like$10,000!" I wanted to smack her!!!

Quoting myfoursonsks:

Shoot i get made when I spend 10 bucks on a drink! No way would I spend 10,000 even if I had the money to blow. There are lots of things I could use the money for. If I spend that much on a drink I better pee gold coins or something!

I wouldn't do it either, but arent you paying for the jewelry?  Says in the post:
