| | World's Most Expensive Burger | | 2008-06-19 10:32:00 | | How much would you pay for a fast food meal? Burger King has introduced "The Burger" at one England location, once a week for a mere $200! What's the catch, well all the proceeds go to the Help A London Child charity. Great cause but couldn't the money just be donated without promoting fast food to an already unfit over junk food eating world.The fine (expensive) ingredients of 'The Burger' include Wagyu beef, white truffles, Pata Negra ham slices, Cristal onion straws, Modena balsamic vinegar, lambs lettuce, pink Himalayan rock salt, organic white wine and shallot infused mayonnaise in an Iranian saffron and white truffle dusted bun.Eight of The Burgers were sold by lunchtime the first day. So for $800 a month you can get four Burger King fast food meals - will you have enough change left for a drink and fries? Oh, they will give you glass of wine to wash it down.Is this one more marketing ploy for Burger King?

| | | The market for expensive real estate in Israel is still strong | | 2008-05-20 14:19:00 | | Neither the one or the other. A REIT fund invests in real estate that yields an income; they are rented out, and that is the profit of the investor. A VC fund invests in technology, and it is high-risk. We use the money put in by our investors to build residential real estate projects, or even non-residential real estate projects, which are then sold. We do not invest in rent-yielding property, and we are not a high-risk investment like a VC fund. We have two funds, for which we raised $100 million. Since we can get bank credits for 80 percent of the cost of our projects, it means that we have more than $900m. at our disposal. We are now in the process of raising a third fund.Fifty percent of our investors in the FAIRE 1 Fund were Israelis. In the second fund, only 25% were Israelis and the other 75% were from the USA, the UK, Canada, South Africa, Belgium, etc.

| | Kearny Avenue Valero is town's most expensive gas | | 2008-04-26 23:12:00 | | The Kearny Avenue Valero gets the unheralded distinction of being the town's most expensive gas as of today.A gallon of regular sells for $3.49, plus goes for $3.69 and super sells for $3.79. (Of course, as has been happening a lot lately at gas stations, the prices could easily jump considerably overnight, so don't think that $3.49 is by any means stable).It appears the generic station at Seeley and Kearny avenues has the cheapest regular as of today, where a gallon sells for $3.39 a gallon.Even Jersey Oil, near the old Pete's Place, is selling regular at a whopping $3.47 a gallon.It just gets worse and worse and worse. | | By: The Hudson Line Blog | | |

| | Is the Solar Power Expensive? | | 2008-04-07 04:39:00 | | (be as cautious about your wallet as possible...and ask many questions, before...)No.Solar power is not expensive, especially from the long term standing point.Very short, but very straight answer.If you incorporate the efficient, renewable solar system to your house its cost represents about 4% of the overall budget/cost of your house.However, this little investment of 4% gives you an immediate price premium to the value of your 'solar and energy renewable property' of about 10%.Speaking 'number wise', your gain is about 6% at the very start of the solar project.And you are getting an additional gain in lowering your monthly energy bill for days, weeks, years and decades to come.(There are also rebates and tax credits; constantly growing energy prices; restrictions of pollution levels; energy independence and personal security factor; etc.)Photo by Piez Thanks! | | By: Solar Shingles | | |

| | Vietnam is the 13th most expensive office location in the world | | 2008-03-26 05:42:00 | | This ranking shows Vietnam has leaped four notches in just a short span of time, as this very company in its Office Space Across the World 2008 report early this month said Vietnam was the 17th most expensive office location. The earlier ranking was unveiled when the company launched its 31st Asia Pacific office in HCMC early this month.The new ranking was announced Saturday on the occasion Cushman & Wakefield's board chairman John Cushman III visited HCMC.The new research is shocking to enterprises, especially foreign investors because "such exorbitant office rent in Vietnam is not right with the economic conditions of a developing country like Vietnam," according to the company.

Without competition from HD DVD, Blu-ray players from Samsung, Sony, Sharp and Panasonic have actually gone up: to their highest 2008 prices yet, according to TG Daily. It appears that the PS3 is still the best value for those looking for a Blu-ray player. Not only is it one of the cheapest (at $400), it also can play upcoming BD Profile movies, which utilize an internet connection. Current standalone players are unable to use this feature and will be incompatible with many features in upcoming Blu-ray releases.TG Daily has some keen words of advice: "Ironically, although Blu-ray has been declared the winner, it is right now about the worst time to invest in a standalone Blu-ray player, because of the high prices and looming obsolescence.

| | VW Golf TDI Hybrid: too expensive for America? | | 2008-03-11 07:32:47 | | We are extremely pleased that Volkswagen was able to achieve such phenomenal fuel mileage and emissions numbers from their Golf TDI Hybrid. As a refresher, the machine uses a 1.2 liter three-cylinder diesel engine paired with a 26 horsepower electric motor and returns 69 U.S. mpg and 89 g/km of CO2 emissions in the EU combined cycle. As we've reported, the car is slated for production in Europe, but what about the U.S.? Don't we need cars that deliver high mileage and low emissions here too? Of course we do, but the question that needs to be asked is whether American drivers are ready to pay for the technology required to make these numbers a reality. The Toyota Prius has set the standard for what consumers expect from green cars, and it is priced rather well - less than $25 grand, well equipped. Diesel vehicles have never sold as well in the States as they do in Europe, despite their fuel mileage increases. This is due, partly, to the added cost that comes with a diesel vehicle in o | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |

| | Vietnam is the fifth most expensive office location in Asia | | 2008-03-04 04:53:00 | | "Vietnam is booming," said Toby Dodd, general manager of Cushman & Wakefield in Vietnam while commenting on the Office Space across the World 2008 report which reveals global parallels and insights into the Vietnamese real estate market.Prime office rents in Vietnam are out of tandem with the rest of Asia as the country's economic progress accelerates after its entry to the World Trade Organization, he said.The country's gross domestic product forecast for the current year is second only to the supercharged economies of China and India. With such strong economic fundamentals and rising foreign direct investment, the demand for office space is far outstripping supply, so HCMC's rents have grown by a significant 40% over the last year to a rate of over US$68 per square meter per month due to a lack of prime and Grade A office supply across the city, says the report.

Late last year, Ford named Tata Motors of India as the preferred bidder for its Jaguar and Land Rover brands. Tata reportedly placed a bid of $2 billion for both luxury marques, but the final cost will actually be much higher, a new report finds. According to the Times of India, Tata is actually negotiating between 15 and 20 deals with Ford. The additional negotiations including engine supply, as well as the supply of key components and technology. The Times of India also indicates that Tata will need access to Ford's research facilities to upgrade the Jaguar and Land Rover product line. Both Ford and Tata are keeping tight-lipped on the latest rounds of negotiations, but look for the final price of the two brands to soar north of $2 billion mark. | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |
| | ALTOIDS.. The curiously expensive mints | | 2008-01-16 22:42:00 | | I must say though, the GUM which is sold by the same brand is even more of a rip-off.. You get 20 little pieces for two dollars. At least the two dollar tin of mints lasts a few days.. Then again.. it's kind of my fault, because since as long as I could chew gum, I've been using it as food, even the expensive Altoids Gum. Yes since my childhood I've had the bad habit of swallowing my chewing gum as soon as the flavor runs out. Miraculously, no giant wad of gum populates my abdomen.. I eliminate the stuff without any problems. It's perfectly safe [for me].. in fact it probably does a good job of curbing my hunger and keeping the pipes working. So, I beg to differ: Where the hell am I going with this?? Aha! Yes I remember now- I've been a lousy blogger and failed to give you any interesting content for a while. I feel badly about it.. but it'll pass. Remember folks, I have four blogs now, so I'm spread pretty thin. Add to that my managing and directing of my new elite bike racing team, and there you have it... There's only so much I can do.. Having given up about ten minutes of sleep to give you this tonight, I hope it was worth the minute or so it took you to read it.. so far.Winter is a lousy time of year for me. I count the days until it is warm again.. I curse the arctic air and the snow and the ice and heating bills.. I'm on edge and depressed in the winter. My only anti-depressant is of course bike riding and eating.. which is good because if I did one and not the other, my weight would change drastically. These past few weekends have included some three+ and four+ hour bike rides in the relatively cold outdoors. Last week I was commuting to work by bike- it was quite mild for a few days.. but this week it's insanely cold out and I don't have it in me to do it.. so I train after work, in the house, on the rollers or the wind trainer..My hair is out-of-control long.. I'm terrible at managing it so I always look like I've just rolled out of bed, no ma | | By: Amerikan Turk | | |

Simply put, term insurance is a bet with the insurance company that you will die and make a claim within a set period of time, known as the term hence the name, term life assurance
Term life insurance comes in many different forms and probably we come across it most often when buying a home. Here we have a mortgage for an amount that we know, that is going to last for a term that is set at the outset so it becomes very easy to see how much and for how long we need an insurance policy to cover the debt in the event of our death.
Mortgage protection policies tend to have a variety of features that can be used as and when our mortgage situation changes.

| | WW - Expensive Quran! | | 2007-10-31 07:51:00 | | A Quran written in 1203, believed to be the oldest known complete copy, has sold for more than $2.3 million at an auction.The holy book, which had been estimated to sell for up to $715,000, fetched $2,327,300 at Tuesday's auction in London, Christie's said.That was a record auction price for a Quran or any type of Islamic manuscript, the auctioneer Christie's said.A nearly complete, 10th-century Kufic Quran, thought to be from North Africa or the near East, sold $1,870,000.Both were offered for sale by the Hispanic Society of America, and were purchased by trade buyers in London, Christie's said.The record-setting Quran was signed by Yahya bin Muhammad ibn 'Umar, dated 17 Ramadan 599 (June 1203).It was acquired in Cairo in 1905 by Archer Milton Huntington, who founded the Hispanic Society in New York City in 1904. Huntington, the adopted son of railroad and ship-building magnate Collis P. Huntington, died in 1955.The calligraphy in the manuscript was done in gold outlined in thin black lines, and the marginal notes are in silver outlined in red.The kufic Quran bridges a gap between the earlier style, copied on parchment of horizontal format, and the later style of vertical composition, often on paper, Christie's catalog said.The kufic script takes its name from Kufah in Iraq, an early center of Islamic scholarship, according to the British Library.Because the script's vertical strokes were very short but the horizontal strokes elongated, it was written on papers in a landscape format. | | By: Infinitely CRAZY | | |

Though America's property market is being shaken by the current lending crisis, London's so-called super-prime property arena, made up primarily of high-end, high-cost flats, is skyrocketing.From wealthy bankers in London's financial district to old-money aristocrats, the range of buyers reaches far and wide. But a growing international clientele, in particular, is helping drive up prices. They're attracted by London's favorable tax system (foreign residents are taxed only on their overseas earnings), fashionable schools and good living. Of the 19 billionaires living in London, only 11 are British citizens.
