ABU DHABI, Feb 17: A licence plate bearing simply the number “1” fetched what organisers said was a world record $14 million at a charity auction here on Saturday.
The price paid by Saeed Abdel Khouri, 25, beat a record set by one of his relatives in September, the organisers said in a statement.
The record has been submitted to the Guinness World Records book, they said.
Proceeds from the auction will fund construction of a specialised emergency hospital in the seven-member United Arab Emirates. Reuters

I think he is inclined to charity and has the heart of showing love for the poor and the help that this money will alleviate some afflicted in a society is a great blessing to him. Though the vehicle may not have worth the money i think it isn't the number plate that matters but the cause of the money is what every individual should be glad.
