By price · Order from cheapest to most expensive.

1. A PlayStation 5 console $500

   The PS5 sold out so fast at launch during the pandemic that scalper bots became a news story — resale prices briefly doubled the sticker.

2. An average American wedding $33K

   The single biggest line item is usually the venue. Meanwhile the median engagement ring, despite the marketing, costs a fraction of the 'three months salary' rule.

3. A Lamborghini Urus SUV $240K

   Ferruccio Lamborghini built tractors first and started making supercars after Enzo Ferrari allegedly insulted him. The Urus is now the brand's best-seller.

4. The rarest Pokemon card, the Pikachu Illustrator, in mint condition $5.3M

   Logan Paul bought it in 2022, setting a Guinness World Record — then wore it around his neck into a WrestleMania match.

5. SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, the most expensive stadium ever built $5.5B

   Because it sits under the LAX flight path, the roof had to stay low — so builders dug the field about 30 meters below ground level.

6. Pixar, when Disney bought it $7.4B

   The 2006 deal made Steve Jobs Disney's largest individual shareholder — he had bought Pixar from George Lucas two decades earlier for about $10 million.
