$1000 Pizza Pie! Is It Me Or Are The Rich Flaunting Their Wealth These Days?

yes that is ridiulous.i have seen on a show a while back where they were selling a hamburger for $300, what in da world? I can make that same hamburger/pizza and will probably taste better.They can donate some of dat money to me.lol i will be happy to accept!

I am not having a bite of that pizza. I can never afford it. It is much too expensive for people who belong to the social standing where I am. The rich are flaunting their riches because, they are more insecure than the less fortunate ones. They go about bragging how much have they accumulated through the years and as to how young have they started getting those millions and then billions. They never have enough of their fill because, they know that there is always someone much richer or someone who will still be much richer than they are. Let's be happy that we are having enough of our fill to address all our needs.

There has always been a tendancy for the rich to love flaunting their wealth, and it will no doubt continue. Caviar and champagne are 2 perfect examples of this, because in both cases they are an acquired taste that most people would not enjoy. I can imagine the pizza selling fairly well purely because of it's cost. However, it sounds like the most revolting pizza that I have heard of.

i saw that on a television show this morning! i sure would not buy a pizza for $1000. But there are stupid people who will. i don't care how much money i have, i would never waste it on a pizza/ crazy!!

I personally think that i never want to be rich. It's pathetic, i think that if they have all that money, why don't they find a way to use it that doesn't just go to show people "i have more than you" It just bugs the heck right out of me... I don't mind them having a big fancy house, even a nice car/truck or 2, but there comes a point where it's just showing off, most people don't even like caviar, but look, their eating it to show off, the expensive necklace, i'm sure you can find something just as beautiful, if not more, for under 2 grand, and any house that costs that much, isn't worth it to me. If they want to go ahead and flaunt what they got, then they just better know that there's going to be a lot of pissed off people, and a lot of trash to deal with. Not from me, no, but there's a lot of people who would go pretty far to get back at them.

I think they should give money to the poor as well.That is sad that so many people are going hungary and would be happy with some beans or macaroni and cheese to eat.I think is is ridiculous to spend tht much on dresses or whatever when they could probably find a dress or something similar and it would be less money and still look good.If I had that much money I would probably get me a nice house but not a huge mansion that is so big you could barley get to one end in a day.LOL.I guess I woud be happy with just a normal house and conserve money and I would give it away to people that needed it.I think that is what God intends for people to do when they have lots and lots of money.I think that person that specifically caters to only rich people that can afford to pay for that high price food will be making boocoos of money.I also think some rich and famous people are to snotty and prissy to eat around us regular people and that is wrong to.Everyone is created equal.So no one should feel oneself superior to the other just becuase they have money.I for one would not have alot of cars.I would only have about 2 or 3.Six is too much unless it is your childrens cars counted.Some Celebrities and Wealthy people spend to much money on stuff.When they die they cant take it with them.The family would probably get it.I think that if they want to buy something buy something almost the same but a little cheaper.I wonder sometimes even if some do give to charity (some probably more so for tax reasons)If they feel guilt or have a conciense when they know they could give alittle more money.

I've read about that in the newspaper last week. It would be nice to try it out, I'm sure it's delicious.

The thing is, by "flaunting" their wealth, they're probably making even more money. Just don't watch those shows and don't pay attention! :p Donald Trump's apartment was on The Apprentice, the man may have lots of money, but he clearly has no taste! Like someone once put it, "take a look at my ridiculously ostentatious apartment!".

I was raised to believe that it was only the nouveau riche (newly rich) who flaunted their money. People with class and breeding never did that. Camilla never had any class so I would not expect to her to behave as if she did.

I'm sorry but if I were a millionaire, I wouldn't spend a thousand dollars on something that(pardon my language) I'm going to crap out in a few hours. Nothing tastes that good. The sad thing is that most of these people(Donald Trump and the royal Family excepting) have a good chance of going broke. MC Hammar is a perfect example of a man who was on top of the world, financially and lost it all. Rich people in entertainment need to use a few smarts and put away a bit for a rainy day.

Well first of all what I think about the pizza, I saw it on Fox 5 news, is that even though I have never tried caviar, I don't intend to try it and you couldn't pay me $1000 to eat it. Actually I take that back, I think I would have to force myself to eat it for $1000. lol! But I think it is stupid to charge $1000 for a pizza let alone $125 a slice. And about the rich flaunting their wealth: Yes I do think they are flaunting their wealth too much and what makes me mad is that you say some of them have 12 different cars. What are they doing with 12 different cars in the first place? Do they drive a different car everyday? I think that is stupid and wasteful of their money when they could be spending it on helping the poor and homeless. I am sick of the rich people showing off their expensive stuff. I think it is also stupid to even spend $25 million dollars on one necklace. It is a waste of money if you ask me. Money can be better spent on so many things besides expensive necklaces and 12 different cars. If I was a millionaire I would first pay off all of my bills and buy a nice house for me and my husband. Then I would give my mom, dad, sister and mother n law a whole bunch of money and keep giving them money all the time. Then I would build more apartment buildings for the homeless and buy them whatever they needed to get back on their feet and get a job so they wouldn't have to live that life anymore. I have thought of this so many times. What really bothers me is it seems like the only people that actually want to help out the poor are the ones that are poor themselves and the rich have the means to do everything they can to help out the homeless but they don't. Sure they give money to charity but I think they only do that to make themselves look good. I wouldn't directly give the money to charity but I would go around to as many states as I could and just hand out money to those who really needed it. I get so mad hearing about them buying this and that. It makes me sick. Sorry for the long response but this stuff just makes me so angry.

I don’t think I will ever have a bite of that pizza. I already can buy a lot of things with $125. Times are though nowadays and I just don’t want to spend my hard earned money on such impractical stuff. Know pizza is a food and food is a need and not a want but we can have a delicious pizza without having to pay $125. But I don’t see anything wrong with the rich flaunting their wealth. It’s their life, so they can always decide what they want to do with it.

What a shame, they can't spend 15 bucks on a pie and give the balance of the thousand to some poor starving people, people who go to bed hungry because they don't have anything at all to eat. The worst part of the whole thing is that they have to throw it in everyones face.

Well with those kind of toppings, they can have those pizzas. I'll stick with my pepperoni and mushroom or if I want exotic, hawaiian style! As for the homes, they can keep those too. I'm not one much for that size a house! I watch Hogans and the Osbournes were frankly disgusting! I'll stick with a 3 bedroom suburban house. Not to mention all the "friends" you have when you are rich. No thanks! I would just like to not have to worry anymore about bills being paid!

I think it is ridiculous , there is so much that they could do for poor people with all that money , they should be ashamed to pay so much for food xx

I could care less what they have. They are wasteful people. Would be nice if they were required to do good works when they get that wealthy. Then they might remember how good it is to have things most people never do. Would be nice to have a Robin Hood in this age and day.

Sadly this is not a new trend. The rich has always loved flaunting their money. Not all of them of course but there are some. It's just so obnoxious. It's also a collosal waste of money. You look at all the suffering & starving in this world (not to mention in our own country) & then you have morons like this spending $1,000 on a pizza. Way to go.

I like food but I really would feel guilty to spend so much money. If this pizza had been baked for a charity dinner than I could understand the prize but paying exorbitant prizes for basic necessities like food and clothes is ridiculous. I've known rich people who were frugal because they understood there is more to life than flaunting your money. But those people never get press coverage.

Well i do not find it all that shocking. Nino Selimaj has cleverly promoted his product without spending much. On the contrary he has got millions of dollar's worth publicity for his products. I really doubt his $1000 pizza will ever be a part of his restaurant's regular menu. This style of marketing reminds me of Donald Trump who recruits excellent talent using his show "The Apprentice". Instead of losing money in the pursuit of good talent he actually makes money. I think the $1000 pizza is good idea, in fact we can have $500 pies, $250 cookies also for promotion of products and of course plenty of publicity. I do not find anything wrong with the rich spending money, just imagine if they chose to be miserly and do not spend anything. There are plenty of rich people who just keep banking their money and keep watching their investments grow. So, i see nothing wrong on their part in spending huge amounts... in fact eye popping amounts. Also, the world would be boring if we only had budget range products and nothing else to aspire for. It would be much like the socialist model of lifestyle, where there is no difference between the bread which the rich man has or the poor man has. I think we should be positive and think well that $1000 has made Nino Selimaj rich and famous. His prosperity would mean more restaurants, more jobs. I think its good that the rich spend money that's what keeps the economy in good spirits.

First of all I would NOT buy a pizza that expensive it's just going to go in one hole and out the other. Second it's not like those who are rich don't donate money to those in need. I'm sure they don't purposely try to make those who are poor feel bad, if they were flaunting their wealth and not trying to help those who are poor that's one thing. But to pamper yourself because you can doesn't make them bad people.
