A case of too much money?

It beggars belief when someone has so much money they pay this much for a painting. The money spent on that could feed and clothe so many underprivileged people. A case of materialism if ever I saw it. Of course it's his money to spend but I do hope he would spread some of his wealth among the underprivileged. If he has 21 million to spare just imagine how much he does have.

Well yeah there is that, I don't know how he is famous in the first place to have made so much money, can't see it myself but obviously many don't agree with me lol just think how many fans he must have , it's clear i.m in the minority

It is hard to believe a picture is worth that amount of money, not even my creations!

How much is anything worth?
As much as you can get for it.

Re: A case of too much money?

I agree with you Lion Queen.
How some of these celebrities are worth what they're paid is puzzling!
I saw a program about Windsor and how much treasure is stashed away in those sort of places, which the country owns.
There is no need for anyone to be homeless or poor or not able to afford treatment, it all needs to be sold off and poured into the NHS and housing.
No one looks at most of it, it's just hoarded.
If they sold it to the very wealthy we could use the money!

I suppose it is up to people to spend their own money on whatever they choose that makes them happy, it is healthier than drugs or alcohol .

I think you will find that Puff Daddy is a philanthropist and gives loads to charities. He raised £2 million alone running a marathon for charity, has his own foundation which puts kids through college, feeds the poor in both America and Africa etc etc
