In the market for a luxury submarine or a yacht? What about a cruise liner or any other kind of boat you can think of? Or if flying's your thing, what about a hot air balloon, a fighter plane, an older helecopter or a newish helicopter?

Sunseeker Yachts - high quality, high price - but any way you look at it: dead sexy.
Wondering how much it would cost to buy your own island? (worldwide islands, Caribbean islands) (and if you so desired, a monorail for your island.)

So if you were ever wondering how much it would cost to have your own island with a monorail going around it, a yacht and a submarine docked on said island, with a helicopter and a helipad to get on and off your island while simultaneously starting a cruise line/hot air balloon/fighter plane endeavor, then I guess it's your lucky day. (and if you are thinking about getting a helicopter, then you should probably get your license for it)
