Think of your dream property, car, Watch, Jewellery Piece and then think a little harder and you’ll begin to get an idea of what the most expensive these things in the world look like.Here are 5 such things that you might never be able to afford in this lifetime, and if you're able to afford, you might not see the value in the price tag. Let's see what they are:
1. Buckingham Palace might not be put up for sale anytime soon but, if it was, it would be worth around $6.7 billion dollars. With 240 bedrooms as well as a swimming pool and doctor’s surgery, it’s a place called home by the British Royal Family and is also open to the public for guided tours. 
In total, this rich house—if you can call it a mere house—contains 775 rooms: 19 state rooms, 92 offices, and 78 bathrooms. It’s also got a huge team of staff as well as beautiful gardens. Rumour has it, there are a few other secret rooms dotted throughout this huge luxury mansion.
2. In 1964, the 250 GTO won the Tour de France Automobile – marking the ninth year in a row that Ferrari won that race. Only 36 of these cars were made between 1962 and 1963; the specific Ferrari that’s the most expensive in the world, at an unbelievable $70,000,000 price point, was victorious not only in the Tour de France, but it also placed in the Le Mans.
With a top speed of 174 miles per hour and an acceleration of 0-60 mph (0-100 km/h) in 6.1 seconds, its stats wouldn’t stand up to the hypercars of the modern day. However, in the ‘60s, it was the fastest in the world – and, now, decades later, it remains the most expensive car in the world of all time by a long shot.
3.Graff Diamonds Hallucination
The most expensive watch ever made is another Graff Diamonds creation. The Hallucination is, as the name suggests, truly breathtaking and brilliantly fantastical. 
Featuring a kaleidoscopic array of 110 carats of different coloured diamonds in a range of different cuts, set into a platinum bracelet, The Hallucination brings high-fashion to the world of horlogerie.
4. The Hope Diamond The most expensive and perhaps the most famous jewel in the world is a 45.52 carat blue stone known as the Hope Diamond. Believed to have been discovered in India in the 1600s, the Hope Diamond was bought by King Louis XIV in 1668. This $250 million worth carat Fancy Dark Gray-Blue antique cushion cut diamond was later stolen during a crown jewel looting in 1791 but resurfaced in London in 1839.

World's costliest: House, Car, Watch, Jewellery Piece, Painting 

From the priciest house to the costliest painting and beyond, here are 5 such things that you might never be able to afford in this lifetime, and if you're able to afford, you might not see the value in the price tag

From the priciest house to the costliest painting and beyond, here are 5 such things that you might never be able to afford in this lifetime

At a time when lemons and tomatoes are making it on the list of expensive items we look at some of the priciest things money can buy!&nbsp; World's most expensive home:&nbsp;Buckingham Palace&nbsp; You may not see a "For Sale" sign on this London property but home to the British Monarch is valued at $6.7 billion dollars. This 775 room&nbsp;palace has served as the monarchy's headquarter&nbsp;since 1837. Spread across 39 acres, the residence has everything it needs to be its own self-sufficient village, including a post office, movie theatre, police station and clinic.

Zooming in with a $70 million price tag is the ultimate collectible car -&nbsp;Ferrari 250 GTO&nbsp;also dubbed "Il Mostro&rdquo;&mdash;the monster. With only 36 of these cars ever manufactured, it calls for top billing at an auction as a nine-time in a row winner of the&nbsp;Tour de France. With a top speed of 174 miles per hour it is definitely not the fastest but remains the costliest car by a mile and yes they are still in running condition.&nbsp; World's most expensive watch:&nbsp;Graff Diamonds Hallucination
Even if your eyes are able to handle the sparkle, the price tag will surely blind you. The&nbsp;Graff Diamonds Hallucination clocks in with a price of $55 million and can be considered more a piece of jewellery with 110 carats of different coloured diamonds in a range of different cuts, set into a platinum bracelet. But if one had to evaluate the worth of a watch for just its making and brand then the&nbsp; Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime commands pole position; worth a whopping $31 million. 
World's most expensive jewellery:&nbsp;The&nbsp;Hope Diamond The Hope Diamond is a 45.52-carat diamond originally extracted in the 17th century from the Kollur Mine in Guntur&nbsp;and&nbsp;was bought by King Louis XIV in 1668. This $250 million worth carat Fancy Dark Gray-Blue antique cushion cut diamond was later stolen during a crown jewel looting in 1791 but resurfaced in London in 1839.&nbsp;According to the legend, there is a curse that comes with the glitter,&nbsp;a curse that foretold bad luck and death not only for the owner of the diamond but for all who touched it.
World's most expensive painting:&nbsp;Salvator Mundi The image of Christ as The Saviour of the World was billed as the Last da Vinci&nbsp;at Christie's 2017 and broke all&nbsp;records when it was bought for $450 million in 2017 by the Saudi Royal family. Not been seen in public since then but it remains in the news as art connoisseurs continue to debate if the&nbsp;Salvator Mundi&nbsp;is indeed a work by the master or just his assistants. In an era where digital art and Beeple's make headlines, Da Vinci&nbsp;still remains the holy grail for collectors.&nbsp;

"ESG is an outrageous scam! Shame on S&P Global," Tesla CEO Elon Musk tweeted as the EV giant out kicked off the S&P500's green and clean ESG index. Here is what happened-:
The S&P Global did it's fourth annual rebalance of the sustainably focused, large-cap index this week and Elon Musk's Tesla - the world's largest EV maker got booted off the index. Tesla the the fifth largest holding in the S&P 500, was deemed ineligible as it found itself out along with Berkshire Hathaway, Johnson & Johnson, and Meta Platforms but oddly making it on the sustainable list is oil major Exxon Exxon is rated top ten best in world for environment, social & governance (ESG) by S&P 500, while Tesla didn't make the list. ESG is a scam. It has been weaponised by phony social justice warriors," Musk added.S&P Global's ration was that while Tesla's ESG score has remained fairly stable year-over-year, it was pushed further down the ranks relative to its global industry group peers." So Tesla is green but some of the other manufacturers are getting greener. But casting a shade of grey on the ratings is also Tesla's treatment of worker says the global index creator. 
"A media and stakeholder analysis identified two separate events centered around claims of racial discrimination and poor working conditions at Tesla's Fremont factory, as well as its handling of the NHTSA investigation after multiple deaths and injuries were linked to its autopilot vehicles," S&P Global said.
Those events led to a lower ESG score for Tesla, leading to its elimination from the index.

Month after announcing the disappointing subscriber growth slowdown in more than a decade, Netflix lays off about 150 employees. The cuts represent 2 per cent of the streamer’s total workforce, with most of the cuts made in the United States. 
According to reports, the layoffs come across departments and are driven by the need to reduce expenses rather than the performance of individual employees. In addition to the layoff of 150 full-time employees, Netflix is eliminating about 70 part-time jobs in its animation studio and is also cutting freelance roles in its social media and publishing group. The new round of cuts comes less than a month after multiple full-time staff and contractors in Netflix’s editorial and marketing division were laid off.
In April, during its first-quarter earnings announcement, Netflix revealed it had lost 200,000 subscribers in the quarter and expected to lose an additional 2 million during the second quarter.

Bots or Bills, what is really giving Musk second thoughts about Twitter

Pressure will mount on Musk to monetise Twitter as deal brings with it $1 billion interest expense to the social media platform

From poop-slinging to cocky responses, the repartee&nbsp;on Twitter from Elon&nbsp;Musk is casting a doubt on whether this eccentric billionaire will actually buy the social media platform.&nbsp; The War on Bots
Earlier, Musk replied with a poop emoji&nbsp;after Twitter CEO&nbsp;Parag&nbsp;Agrawal&nbsp;in a tweet thread mentioned that it would be difficult to conduct an external audit on the platform's spam accounts. Musk and Agrawal&nbsp;have been in a wrangle lately as the Tesla CEO&nbsp;expresses his doubts over the success of the deal if Twitter fails to provide proof of spam accounts.

Underpinning the deal is a $13 billion debt bill that&rsquo;s looking like a bigger burden by the day.&nbsp;Twitter&rsquo;s annual interest expense to around $900 million, while Bloomberg Intelligence sees $750 million to $1 billion.
With numbers like those, Twitter looks poised to burn cash, boosting the pressure on Musk to transform the company by finding new sources of revenue and slashing costs.
Musk wanted to eliminate spam Twitter accounts
Well, one must remember that Musk offered to buy the social media giant for $44 billion as he decided to eliminate bots from Twitter. Even after buying the largest stake in the company, Musk tweeted, "If our Twitter bid succeeds, we will defeat the spam bots or die trying!&rdquo;
So, now the question arises, if he already knew about the problem of bots -- and Twitter has always said the real number could be higher even though their best estimate calculated it to be sub-5 percent&nbsp;-- then why didn't the eccentric billion do the due diligence before announcing the deal.

We must also look at the deal offer which was made at $54.20 per share. Since then the prices of tech companies have corrected sharply and hence a $54 per share seems like a significantly premium offer for a share that has already been trading at $38.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Tuesday said his deal to buy Twitter can't move forward unless the company shows public proof that less than 5 percent of the accounts on the platform are fake or spam.
Musk made the comment in a reply to another user on Twitter early Tuesday.
In his tweet, Musk said, “20 percent fake/spam accounts, while 4 times what Twitter claims, could be much higher. My offer was based on Twitter's SEC filings being accurate. Yesterday, Twitter's CEO publicly refused to show proof of 5 percent. This deal cannot move forward until he does.”
At a Miami technology conference Monday, Musk estimated that at least 20 percent of Twitter's 229 million accounts are spam bots, a percentage he said was at the low end of his assessment, according to a Bloomberg News report.
Also at the All In Summit, Musk gave the strongest hint yet that he would like to pay less for Twitter than his $44 billion offer made last month. Musk had earlier said a viable deal at a lower price would not be out of the question, according to the report by Bloomberg.
He spent much of the previous day in a back-and-forth with Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal, who posted a series of tweets explaining his company's effort to fight bots and how it has consistently estimated that less than 5 percent of Twitter accounts are fake.

Zimbabwe issued a one hundred trillion dollars—100,000,000,000,000— currency bill in 2009 which is the largest denomination of currency ever issued.
The History
When Zimbabwe attained independence in 1980, Z$2, Z$5, Z$10 and Z$20 denominations circulated, replaced three decades later by bills in the thousands and ultimately in the millions and trillions as the government sought to prop up a weakening economy amid spiraling inflation.
Shortly after the Z$100 trillion note began circulating, the Zimbabwean dollar was officially abandoned in favor of foreign currencies. From 2007 to 2008, the local legal tender lost more than 99.9 percent of its value. This marked a reversal of fortune from independence, when the value of one Zimbabwe dollar equaled US$1.54. Zimbabwe’s extreme and uncontrollable inflation made it the first—and so far only—country in the 21st century to experience a hyperinflationary episode.
Zimbabwe, once considered the breadbasket of Africa, was reduced to the continent’s beggar within a few years; its citizens were pushed into poverty and often forced to emigrate.
What is hyperinflation?
Hyperinflation is defined as beginning when monthly inflation rates initially exceed 50 percent. It ends in the month before the rate declines below 50 percent, where it must remain for at least a year. Zimbabwe entered the hyperinflationary era in March 2007; the period ended when the nation abandoned its currency in 2009.
Shocking inflation
In 2008, Zimbabwe had the second-highest incidence of hyperinflation on record. The estimated inflation rate for Nov 2008 was 79,600,000,000 percent. That is effectively a daily inflation rate of 98 percent. Roughly every day, prices would double. It was also a time of real hardship and poverty, with an unemployment rate of close to 80 percent and a virtual breakdown in normal economic activity. 
What's going on now?
Zimbabwe's inflation has started to rise again, with year-on-year inflation at 96% in April, up from 61% at the beginning of the year, mainly due to a rapidly weakening local currency. In a latest move, Zimbabwe froze bank lending in a temporary measure that is meant to contain inflation and stabilise its economy.
Causes of hyperinflation in Zimbabwe

Government printing money in response to:High national debt
Decline in economic output
Decline in export earnings
Price controls that exacerbate shortages
Lack of confidence in government, economy and political life

Barely recovered from a two-year bout of Covid, emerging markets, and now capital flight. Inflation in Turkey has surged to a two-decade high of 69.97% in April. 
Skyrocketing prices have placed significant pressure on households and ramped up criticism of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose unconventional economic policies are often blamed for the economic turmoil.
In April, the bank kept its benchmark interest rate steady for the fourth consecutive month, bowing to pressure despite high inflation.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which led to a surge in gas, oil and grain prices, has compounded the situation in import-reliant Turkey. The biggest price increases in Turkey last month were in the transportation sector, at 106%, followed by food and non-alcoholic beverage prices at 89%, according to the data.
The Turkish Statistical Institute said consumer prices rose by 69.97 per cent in April compared with the previous year, the biggest year-over-year increase since 2002. The annual inflation rate was up from 61.14 per cent in March. 

Turkey: economic pain continues as inflation accelerates to 70%

Shocking Inflation: This country has a 70% inflation rate

Turkey's cost of living crisis is growing after official data showed that inflation in the country rose to nearly 70%

Turkey is facing the highest prices in over 20 years as inflation soared to an unimaginable 70% in April and yet there is little in the arsenal to fight runaway inflation.&nbsp;Despite soaring prices President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who is a self proclaimed enemy of rate hikes, has insisted that the central bank keeps rates unchanged. This easy money policy while the global market changed course has led to a crisis in the currency, which lost as much as half its value against the dollar in a matter of weeks in December. Despite some stability the value of the Lira is down 12% vs the dollar in the year so far.&nbsp;

Turkey&rsquo;s financial crisis has been further compounded by Russia&rsquo;s invasion of&nbsp;Ukraine, which has driven up prices, particularly for wheat. The loss of Ukrainian supplies has left it scrambling to find alternatives. For the first time, Turkey has placed orders for 50,000 tonnes of wheat imports from India and reports indicate&nbsp;has started to buy wheat through private electronic-mandi&nbsp;as the price of 'atta' touches a record high even in India.&nbsp;

So the big question that everyone is asking is - is the tech bubble bursting again?

The unicorn story is changing from hiring to firing. Somehow the startup bubble has burst and it’s the employees caught in the fallout as ever.Lately, well-funded startups are firing thousands of employees. Here's the list of startups that laid-off employees in 2022: 
Meesho, the e-commerce platform has laid off nearly 150 employees, mostly from its grocery division superstore called Farmiso, as it reportedly plans to merge its online grocery vertical with the main app. 
Meesho isn’t alone. US-based digital mortgage lender Better.com badly botched mass layoffs twice. On December 1, CEO and co-founder Vishal Garg laid off 900 employees via a Zoom call, and made headlines for being cold and insensitive. In March, the company laid off 3,000 of its remaining 9,000 employees in the US and India. 
Back to home again, Unacademy- which saw revenues going up around six times in 2021, laid off nearly 600 employees, contractual workers and educators — about 10 per cent of its 6,000-strong workforce across the group.
Furlenco, the furniture rental startup in March laid off nearly 180-200 employees, mostly from the customer support roles and in the same month, another social commerce platform, Trell asked nearly 300 employees to go, which is close to half of its workforce.
In a nightmare for nearly 1,000 employees, homegrown edtech startup Lido Learning which is backed by top entrepreneur Ronnie Screwvala, apparently shut operations in February, forcing its workforce to seek help via social media platforms. 
Edtech unicorn Vedantu has laid off around 200 employees, a mix of both full-time and contracted employees. 
This is not all. Food and grocery delivery platform Swiggy said it will suspend operations of its subscription-based delivery service, Supr Daily, in five cities, as it is yet to demonstrate profitability. 
Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, for instance, said it will slow down hiring and cut down on marketing and incentive spending to address a “seismic shift” in investor sentiment.
As 2020 and 2021 were all about exuberance, record fundraising and a unicorn being minted every other week, then will 2022 be all about markdowns and layoffs?
