Who in their right mind even with FU money would spend it on something as stupid as this? This Prada paper clip cost more than a flight to Los Angeles

Simple supply and demand.

To each their own. Funny thing, is I'm following a similar type of thread on a flashlight enthusiast page on FB. The poster was floored that anyone would spend $1400 on a flashlight, and couldn't fathom why when you can get a flashlight for a few dollars.

Surprised Gwyneth Paltrow isn't hawking them on her Goop site.

Just another demonstration that being rich and being smart often don't correlate.

Just want to point out this isn't a paperclip... it's a money clip shaped like one. That's a pretty "normal" price for what is essentially a wallet for some people within the luxury world. Is that reasonable? IDK, depends on how much money you have and how you want to spend it but if you're used to spending $500-1000 for a wallet, I suspect this isn't a big deal.

It's a money clip.

Trump and his family would spend that.

Plenty of people would spend that on a designer money clip. It's not expensive.

Money clip that looks like a paper clip. Context for the win.
