Israeli $1.5M Gold & Diamond Face-Mask Is The Most Expensive In The World by Nobody: 11:28pm On Aug 10, 2020

An Israeli jewelry company is working on what it says will be the world’s most expensive coronavirus mask, a gold, diamond-encrusted face covering with a price tag of $1.5 million.

The 18-karat white gold mask will be decorated with 3,600 white and black diamonds and fitted with top-rated N99 filters at the request of the buyer, said designer Isaac Levy.

Levy, owner of the Yvel company, said the buyer had two other demands: that it be completed by the end of the year, and that it would be the priciest in the world. That last condition, he said, “was the easiest to fulfill.”

He declined to identify the buyer, but said he was a Chinese businessman living in the United States.

The glitzed-up face mask may lend some pizzazz to the protective gear now mandatory in public spaces in many countries. But at 270 grams (over half a pound) — nearly 100 times that of a typical surgical mask — it is not likely to be a practical accessory to wear.

In an interview at his factory near Jerusalem, Levy showed off several pieces of the mask, covered in diamonds. One gold plate had a hole for the filter.

“Money maybe doesn’t buy everything, but if it can buy a very expensive COVID-19 mask and the guy wants to wear it and walk around and get the attention, he should be happy with that,” Levy said.

Such an ostentatious mask might also rub some the wrong way at a time when millions of people around the world are out of work or suffering economically. Levy said that while he would not wear it himself, he was thankful for the opportunity.

“I am happy that this mask gave us enough work for our employees to be able to provide their jobs in very challenging times like these times right now,” he said.

Soon it will be a useless facemask. A buyer will hate Russia for discovering the vaccine.

In life, we all have challenges, except that for some people, the challenge is 'no money', while for others, the challenge is 'too much money'.
While some people are crying about, where to get meager money to spend, others are crying about, how to spend the mega money they have.
Such is life.

In life, everything is vanity, except that it is better to live in a million dollar vanity, than live in a thousand dollar vanity.
A wise man once said, "money can't buy happiness, but it's better to cry in a Lamborghini than cry on a bicycle."

I was illuminating the mind of a kid here sometimes ago on the popular slogan, "the rich gets richer."
While many people see this mask as a colossal waste of money, the buyer who is gonna buy it sees an investment for getting massive ROI in the near future.
Poor people buy liabilities, rich people buy assets.
Poor people see challenges, smart people see opportunities.
Poor minds see wastage, smart minds see investments.

Now back to the slogan, 'the rich gets richer', there's a clause after this slogan that most people aren't aware of.
The rich gets richer because the poor gets poorer, or better put, the rich only gets richer because some poor people have gotten poorer.
If you still can't get this simple logic, this is how it works.
Kim Kardashian wore a designer clothing on her social media page, she didn't pay for it, rather she was paid for the advert, average and poor ladies saw this and in a bid to wear something Kim wore, they all trooped out enmass to buy the dress. That's big Jackpot for the seller.
Kim and the seller became richer, the poor girls became poorer.
Sport betting bookmakers get richer, because poor guys on the street get poorer.
BBN gets more money, because there are many poor people wasting their time to promote it, and wasting their little cash to vote it.
The list goes on and on and on.
Poor people waste money to look like the rich, rich people invest money to keep the lead and stay in the game.

No matter how you factorize the equation of cash-flow, you would always end up with a positive and negative value. The poor people are the negative value, who are always at the loosing end most times, while the rich guys are the positive value, who are on the winning side most times.
