- A pair of white Nike Air Force 1 sneakers $110
Released in 1982 as a basketball shoe, the Air Force 1 still sells millions of pairs a year — virtually unchanged in design for four decades.
- A pair of Apple AirPods Pro $249
AirPods alone generate more revenue than Spotify, Twitter, and Shopify each did when analysts ran the comparison — earbuds as a Fortune 500-scale business.
- A Ford F-150 Lightning electric pickup $63K
The F-150 has been America's best-selling vehicle for over four decades — Ford sells one roughly every minute of every day.
- Thirty seconds of advertising time during the Super Bowl $8M
In 1967, a Super Bowl ad cost about $42,000. Brands now spend millions more on celebrity talent and production than on the airtime itself.
- The Mercedes 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe, the most expensive car ever sold $142M
Mercedes had kept both existing cars for nearly 70 years before secretly auctioning one in 2022 — the buyer's identity and the car's location remain closely guarded.
- Andy Warhol's 'Shot Sage Blue Marilyn' silkscreen $195M
The series got its name when a performance artist walked into Warhol's studio in 1964 and shot a stack of Marilyn canvases with a revolver.
