“I Am Rich” Overpriced Product Trend Refuses to Die
The completely useless “I Am Rich” iPhone application was almost funny when it showed up in the app store with its $1000 price tag. Then came the even more ridiculous and almost shockingly unprofessional looking Social 1000 network. Now, the latest addition to the marginally offensive bad marketing bandwagon is here. Meet the “I’m Still Rich” t-shirt.
Priced at an entirely reasonable $2695 ($630 extra if you want it in black) the shirt almost manages to be funny. What is definitely funny is the banner at the top of the screen which reads “Inauguration Weekend Sale! $4.40 OFF ALL SHIRTS!”
The mere existence of this thing is a sad reminder that there are still people out there that might be crazy or stupid enough to buy this stuff. Personally though I think I’ll pass and wait to see the inevitable photo shopped images of this shirt on Warren Buffet or Bill Gates.

Who ever said Social1000 was unprofessional!?
When there are “people out there that might be crazy or stupid enough to buy this stuff”, think about this: we, as consumers, are even more stupid because we buy these people’s products for absurd prices (the current audio and video media prices come to my mind, making “stars” overnight).
Let there be motivation to buy whatever product you want. That makes the money “move”, like it’s supposed to.
What’s the problem with this? I bought 3 of these shirts. Two for myself and one for my wife. I thought they were reasonably priced.
that better be some gold thread they have used to make the letters…
Perfect shirt for the Rich and Shameless.
*facepalm*
Shirt shouldnt be too hard to rip off
Douche much?
They should atleast have sumthing that proves the shirt is 3 grand… like a cool seal stamp or sumthing. How hard would it be to remake it. Unless!!! The letters are made out of gold! Thats what it is…
its all wrong, you need something that symbolizes that your are rich, (font, symbol, image) other than that its a good joke
*sigh* That’s just ugly, man. Stuff like this makes me feel sad.
Please, kindly stop destroying this entire planet for five minutes and consider your shaking little life.
We’re not meant to be mindless zombie consumers of meaningless, toxic trash. It’s just a bad habit we’ve fallen into. Instead, let’s really help each other open our hearts to the deeper pulse of this profoundly beautiful and impossibly alive, Sacred Alien Mother Ark-Planet “Earth..”
For crying out loud let’s evolve a little, fellow space monkies. It’s not too late!

Sorry, but I bought them all, and am now selling them for twice the price.
The line forms here:
Hurray!!! I’m first inline. I’ll buy them all and sell them at triple the price. It’s just like the reality market all over again.
I’m going to guess none of the ppl complaining about this shirt own Escalades, Hummers, Porsches, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, etc.
Please e-mail me your contacts. I have a question webmaster@spottovo.ru” rel=”nofollow”>……
