$390 Gucci Swimsuit That Can't Even Get Wet
It's hard not to roll your eyes at some of the absurd purchases of the super-rich. Take the $390 Gucci swimsuit, for example. Sure, it looks stylish and high-end, but you can't even swim in it!

Most people only see Lamborghinis in movies, but here, it's a regular occurrence on the roads.
It may seem extraordinary to the rest of us, but in a city full of riches and luxuries, it's just another day for the wealthy residents of this city.

Extravagant Horse Stalls
When it comes to the wealthy, even the most mundane things can be taken to an extreme. Horses, while not particularly exotic animals to own, can still be housed in the most luxurious of accommodations. Take, for example, this indoor marble pen with several horse stalls. It's a lavish living space fit for a king, or in this case, a horse. Spending money on elaborate accommodations for their pets is just a normal occurrence.
These stalls may be fancier than some of our homes, but in a world where anything goes, there's no limit to the extravagance that the wealthy can indulge in.
Customized Luxury Motorcycles
For rich people, spending thousands and thousands of dollars on luxury items is just another day in the life. From solid gold motorcycles to customized cars, there are endless things they could spend their money on. Take this guy, for example. He customized his motorcycle as a white stallion!

The lounge is always kept at -6 degrees Celsius; just the upkeep alone runs an expensive bill!
The lengths that the super wealthy go to just to enjoy the finer things in life are hard to wrap your head around. A trip to Dubai and an ice lounge, anyone?
Bathrooms the Size of a House
It's no surprise that the wealthy have super decked-out mansions but have you seen one up close? This bathroom alone could be the size of a studio apartment. When it comes to spending money on luxurious property, there are no limits. It might seem like a waste of money to remodel a bathroom to be this big because what's the point? But it doesn't matter for those who have disposable income.
Imagine spending over $10,000 on a bathroom alone. What's next, $50 toilet paper rolls and bathtubs full of gold-specked water?
$5,800 Turtle Fountain Pen
When it comes to luxury items, the rich really know how to go all out. Take these turtle fountain pens, for example. They may look like something you could pick up at a discount store, but don't be fooled - they're actually worth a cool $5,800 apiece. And if you're really feeling fancy, you can snag a set of three for a "discounted" price. But let's be real here, do these pens really look like they're worth the price tag?
All we see is a gaudy, over-the-top writing utensil that would be more at home in a kid's toy box than on a billionaire's desk! But these people have so much extra money to spend that it doesn't even matter.
