old news.

You know most (if not all) of the money raised at these auctions go to charity?

I will say this: Good on the government for donating a large portion to charity, if that is indeed true.

I will also say this: There is too much money over there. To the point of complete excess where they have nothing better to spend it on. Look at the recent purchase of Manchester City by the financial wing of one of the Princes over there. Absolutely sickening how much money they have.

I'm aware... it was clearly outlined in the video.
I'm glad alot of it does go to charity.. but it's funny, lamborghini's oil change at $87,000 ish or whatever it was. License plates at millions.. Crazy middle east, excess at it's finest.

The #1 plate went for an outrageous price. Isn't it on a Veyron now? (Think that video is a bit old)

So if the lower the number, the more prestigious you are...

What about 0? Or negative numbers?

Seriously though, glad to hear that a chunk of it goes to charity.

Thanks for the news!

even though it sounds completely nuts, and probably is, this is probably the greatest investment ever, unlike a car or house, there is no tax, no maintenance...
