All these Arab billionaires should use their excess money to help their follow poverty stricken Muslims in Yemen, Palestine, Syria, Iraq and other places where they have displaced Muslims running away from war. They rather have them rush into Europe and America to seek refuge and distort the way of life of the Western world with their radical beliefs.

Now, this is what I call vanity. Deluded minds pursue such vain and worthless ambitions.

What happens when Agbero's steal the plate number from your car on the streets of Lagos?

Its just a waste of effort because they can't sell it or do anything with it.

The only thing they can do is kidnap the plate number and ask for ransom which you know is risky...

A Rolls-Royce owner just paid ₦217million (£460,000) for the ultimate "RR1" registration plate at an auction. This number cost ₦47million (£100k) more than a brand new Rolls-Royce Phantom.

The number was described as one of the most special plates in the world before it was sold at the Goodwood Revival auction.

But no one knows whether it is an investment or be used on a Rolls-Royce.

The "1" number is the most expensive registration plate which was sold for £7.25million. It was purchased by Abu Dhabi businessman Saeed Abdul Ghaffar Khouri in 2008. 

The "25 O" number is the most expensive registration plate in UK which was sold for £518,000 four years ago.

A "F1" licensed to a 2013 Bugatti Veyron SuperSport is believed to be the world's most sought-after registration plate.

The number is owned by the founder of Kahn Design (customises luxury cars),Afzal Kahn,and is currently on sale for ₦7.1billion (£15million).



He purchased it ten years ago for £375,000 and rejected a ₦2.9 billion (£6 million) bid for the plate four years ago.

The price of this newly purchased RR1 plate number is enough to buy 20 brand new Toyota Camry or 23 brand new ₦9.4 Innoson’s Carrier 4×2 .

For the same price,you will buy a brand new ₦170m Rolls-Royce Phantom plus 4 new Toyota Camry.

Again, the cost of that plate number can also buy you 15 million litres of petrol or fill your car's 65L tank around 23 thousand times.

Would you pay a staggering ₦217 million for a license plate number ?

This is why we have a lot of poor people in Nigeria, we have a big poor man's mentality!.......if a lot of us dont understand what is happening here, let me dissect it a little for a business mind to understand.....this is actually an investment, but a lot of us dont see it....you all say it's a waste of money or its vanity? Hope you guys read the part someone bought a plate for £375,000 ten years ago and now auctions it for £15 million? Please calculate how much that is in profit and tell me it was bad business....there is hidden treasure in some of the things people buy at auctions but sometimes it's too deep for us to comprehend. A lot of people dont buy these things to show off, some of them buy for keep till it appreciates....I remember a man once asked for princess Diana's "accidented" benz car that time she died, you think he wanted to repair it and drive? Please think again!.......That guy will sell that plate for more 10 years from now.....this can be likened to what a friend of mine said when Juventus bought Ronaldo, he said that amount is too much and he can guaranty a return of 10% on wall street if the money was given to him. I told him he doesn't understand the business Juve just performed was the best ever because the money used to buy Ronaldo would be made in Jersey sales alone in just one week or two....well, he understands it now! (Sorry for the digression). Sometimes, we need to think outside the box!
