Determining if the Iron Man-themed Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is worth $91,000
Technology is the one industry/product category that arguably experiences the most amount of depreciation. As soon as you buy a new computer, television, or a tablet a new and better one will come out within a few months. This is why, at least in my opinion, it’s not extremely wise to drop obscene amounts of money on a piece of tech. But sometimes you cannot avoid spending a lot of money on technology. If you want the best television or the hottest cellphone on the market, you’re going to have to drop some money on it. But how much is too much?
With the release of the Apple Watch, we saw the ostentatiously expensive “Apple Watch Edition” line that featured the smartwatch being made out of gold. Prices for the watch ranged between $10,000 and $17,000 dollars. It’s super expensive, but people were willing to spend money on it. Now if there’s any country that seems to love to spend outrageously high prices on technology, it would probably be China. There, the most expensive gold Apple Watches sold out in under an hour. Then we heard the story about a man who bought two of the gold watches for his dogs. Well the newest tech news out of China is that someone apparently dropped $91,635 dollars on a limited edition Iron Man Galaxy S6 Edge.

I can answer this question right now, without reading any analysis. there is no smartphone on Earth that is worth $91,000. Even if it were solid gold, with diamond inlays, it would not be worth that much. Anyone who thinks it is, or actually pays that outrageous sum, is missing most of their marbles.
