I'm waiting for the $1 billion piece of art
- Thread starter blakpacman

Speaking of Art, from the classic movie "Wall Street":
Bud: How much is enough, Gordon? When does it all end, huh? How many yachts can you water-ski behind? How much is enough, huh?
Gekko: It's not a question of enough, pal. It's a Zero Sum game â somebody wins, somebody loses. Money itself isn't lost or made, it's simply transferred â from one perception to another. Like magic. This painting here? I bought it ten years ago for sixty thousand dollars. I could sell it today for six hundred [grand]. The illusion has become real, and the more real it becomes, the more desperately they want it. Capitalism at its finest."
