Some chinese guy bought most expensive face mask in the world $1.5 million.

I don't get why govs don't  put 99.9% income tax on this f...kers ...?

Are you a socialist? Who gives you the right to steal from people? Maybe he worked hard to get his first million and then money made money.

It's easy to make money when you already have a lot. Those who have 50 million dollars or more can make another million every year just by moving their money around while we poor people work hard to get 10 thousand a year but I wouldn't try to steal from them. Property is untouchable.

Yes i am a socialist !

Actually it is incidents such as this one which fuels the rise of socialists. There is already so much of hatred against the uber-rich and the populist politicians (on both sides of the spectrum) usually make use of these sentiments for their own benefit. Under such circumstances, it is the duty of the rich to not to show around their wealth, at least during these depressing times.

there are more crazier things than this but this buying and selling expensive item is simillar to bidding and its already part of our culture . they already charge a tax for this because we even get charge by a tax on cheaper items but that tax wont be 99 percent , thats too much .  mask is trendy now and those guys wanted to show off  .

 regular mask , that one that we used are also getting expensive now but there would still be people that will get angry to this because of how they waste money

[suvo05]

If rich people are wasting their money, then someone will get benefited from that wasted money. If the stored it rather than wasting then that will be more harmful to the economy.
But, yes you can question their morality, that they can help directly to the poor people rather than spending it on expensive products.

For me, we should not be overreacting about what a single person will do in his own life because he is free to do so whatever he wants in his life as long as he's not taking advantage from  other people. The fact that he's rich enough and is capable of buying luxurious things in life, well let him be because he deserves it. Buying an expensive mask should not be a big deal because it's his own money he is spending and not from someone elses.

And besides, he is probably not a politician that we could think that the money is coming from their people. It is actually he's own money to spend that $$$ just to have that mask from the other country. Of course, I will if I can afford to have it. This is also a kind of market collection and someday he/or the people could remember him if he'll pass away, and I think it gonna be brought into the museum.

I can't imagine how he wears that mask and walks around then see the head of the people turn around and look into him...

It could really be a headturner because thats not really an ordinary mask on where you can see on daily commute and maybe the owner do really need such attention thats why he decide to spent up some of his money
just to get that recognition or attention in the public or worldwide since its already in been known on media.People are just too sour when someone whose rich do buy up or made things that are really out of this world
kind of spending.You cant really appreciate everyone because they do always think of on how money should be spend up but its his own money then he can buy all the thing he do want.

whatever his intentions are, i guess that is one h*ll of a memorabilia of pandemic!!! since he can afford it, he doesnt have to answer to anyone why he decided to buy a very expensive mask. there are people that will really go out of the norm, whether self satisfaction, seeking attention or whatever it is in their minds. as long as he's not hurting anyone, he's free to do what he wants. after all, we are living in the free world!

This one will surely be remembered and for sure it will really be set out on Guinness world records for the most expensive mask on this pandemic situation we are in.You are definitely right on what you do said
that his intentions might really be different on what most people are speculating on but we dont know on whats inside on his mind on making such step or purchase but surely this one do make out some buzz
that really caught publics attention not only on the streets but also to people worldwide since internet is everywhere and when a thing had been published then it do easily scattered and been known to people.
We are indeed living on a free world but criticisms do surely exist forever yet human beings do had always have a thing to say.

In some nations even punishments are tied to your earnings did you know that? So for example let's say you are a regular person who makes minimum wage, you do something mildly illegal, not enough to put you in jail, but enough that you pay a fine, like let's say driving through red light but not hitting anyone, so they pull you over and charge you and give you a fine, if you are minimum wage person you get let's say 50 bucks, but if you are mark Zuckerberg you get like a million dollars fine instead.

All because if you are richer and you do something like that you should contribute to the public a lot more than someone who earns a minimum wage. I think that would be a great way to start in all nations, fine people according to how much they make not according to law they break.

[Yatsan]

I have already read some article and watched some news about the most expensive mask in the world that is made out of precious stones making it a lot very expensive compare to the masks that are commercially being sold for medical use amid with the existence of the covid-19 pandemic. Well, as for me it serves no use because of being too much expensive, it is catchy to the eyes of the thieves out there because of the price value it do have due to the precious stones embedded in the mask. It serves no use if your aim is to use it outdoors to keep yourself safe from the virus.

But on the other side, maybe there is a purpose why that Chinese guy have bought such expensive mask and that is maybe to make it for cause program and what he have spent might be used by the ones who have made the mask for a greater purpose of helping other people that is affected by the pandemic. But if the real aim is just to expose his wealth and to serve no purpose for doing such, what I can say is that it is a not so wise spending because money is a great need at times like this and unnecessary expenditure of money into precious things just to satisfy your wants it very not essential. But in the end, it is his own money so he have a say on how he will make use of it. It is just that he must have spend it for some greater purpose.

[Janation]

I agree on that but there are also those that aren't.

Some of them might be those guys that wanted to help and they are thinking maybe that instead of spending those big amount in a single mask, he could just buy a bunch of cheaper face masks and maybe the rest of it he/she can use to help other people that are struggling during this pandemic. We can't actually tell them that and as you said, it is their money, it is their's to decide.

Then we can just let those kind of people to think what they want,
The guy in the video is just one of the many type of people who are rich enough to spend their money in their own ways. We don't have any rights to judge him for where he spend his money. We don't know his whole story, who knows, maybe he had some charity helping a lot of people, and buying this expensive mask is just one of his ways to appreciate himself.

As you said, we don't know this Chinese guy.

But based on the video we can conclude that he just wanted to buy a mask and rub it in on those people that are jealous of him because he's rich. The guy on the video said that the Chinese guy wanted to use or wear it and walk around to get the attention. There are kinds of people like that and maybe as you said, it might just a way for him to appreciate himself.

[verita1]

This video has more not like than like. I also disagree with this extravagance. A luxury tax should be applied to these face masks.
In this way, the contribution collected could reach the people most affected by Covid19 in that country.

[iv4n]

Hehe, 1.5 M for a face mask! That's something!
"I am happy that this mask gave us enough work for our employees to be able to provide their jobs in very challenging times like these times right now".
It's what the salesman said (or this is the owner of the jewelry shop), anyway he live in the reality, he will make anything for you as long as you have money to pay for that. And I don't see anything wrong in that, he is just a businessman.
On other side buyer will have to wear a half a pound heavy mask, that worth 1.5M dollars.

[panganib999]

Based on the attachment video url in YouTube provided by the OP, the most expensive mask was commissioned by a Chinese business man to fight against the covid-19 and it was worthwhile to provide this Chinese man a fulfillment to have one for his own satisfaction. The ones who have arranged and made the most expensive mask is also up into a challenge if other company releases a more expensive mask compared to what they have crafted and state to find another rich client that will spend money to commission another more expensive mask to be classified as the most expensive mask in the world.

Seems like they are just doing it for self satisfaction and no valid reason to do such except the purpose of the mask which is to fight back against the spread of the virus. I just wonder, why it is in need to buy such expensive mask when you can have a normal N99 mask that are in the same purpose to protect yourself from the potential spread of virus through water droplets. For me it is just to showcase his money on the crowd which is a nonsense and unwise spending of money at times like this wherein you can buy medical essentials, foods and goods with $1.5M that can also help lots of people in need. Anyway, it is his money so it's his will on where he would spend it but that was just unlikely to spend it into having a most expensive mask that have the same purpose with the normal ones what the difference is just it have precious stones embedded on it.

I think this is just one way to become famous. As you can see, it's an unusual mask, it's still very valuable for resale. that is why he used money to become famous and get to many major newspapers. Rich people tend to think very differently, since they have a lot of options and we should get used to it.

That explains a lot.

So, you like to put your hands in other people's pockets and tell them how they should live their lives.
Is there anything else we should know about your political views?

Correct thinking. A money put in motion always helps someone. There's plenty of luxury goods being sold all over the world and there's no crying about a billionaire who bought a helicopter or an island but a stupid mask makes people angry.

Bernard Madoff  was a democrat ... Trump republican ... corruption does not care about political affiliation ... etc etc

Socialist believe in equality ...if your rich how did you get the money can you prove that you made it 100% legit ?

Of course anybody can be a thief or an asshole but that doesn't change the fact that socialists are snooping in other people's pockets and instead of focusing on ways to make money they'd rather take money from someone else.

Yes they want equality and that's why they will never achieve anything because equality is unnatural.

If I'm rich, what's it to you how I made my money? Do all rich people have to explain themselves to you now?

[Rune]

What that is a pretty silly thing to have made seems like a very strange thing to have a super expensive fashion version of.
I guess they are not expecting to go back to normal anytime soon.

Yeah they do ...via the so called  IRS or something similar in other countries ...  

[amishmanish]

An N99 mask made out of gold and studded with black diamonds. Made in Israel. Ordered from China..

While you all debate about how this "guy" is just a rich asshole, you miss the real deal. The Chinese will be taking it to their copying department, replace the diamonds with other shiny stuff and start advertising about 100$ mask made of artificial diamonds available for sale by 100s at Alibaba. The consumers in the capitalist countries would soon be ordering these to catch in on the latest trends.

I feel sorry for that Israeli guy talking about " We hope more people order it and we can make an even more expensive mask". No my friend, you just did the design for the Chinese team. Now just sit-back and watch for the "Manufactured in China, Designed in Israel" tag.

It is possible to buy it in the case of rich people they usually buy it in the case of luxury to show people or such expensive face masks. Face masks can never protect against the effects of the virus many people are spending their days in crisis due to the virus so using such an expensive face mask will help them a lot to help the poor people. There is no guarantee that these face masks will ever keep you completely safe.

There is really no guarantee, anyone can contact a lot of ways. The face mask won’t cover your eyes or does it? And it’s not just about wearing face masks, you also have to be very careful and keep distance and wash hands regularly, so it’s not just about wearing masks. This mask of $1 million will not do anything different from what those cheaper face masks would do. So, it’s of no use.

What I am learning from this topic is, there are rich people on this Earth who may spend their money lavishly to anything so why not into bitcoin when they happen to know about bitcoins. When rich people adopting bitcoins then we can easily see bitcoin markets will be testing million-dollar levels in quicker time than what most experts speculate.

[coolcoinz]

I don't really mind rich people spending their money the way they like. Do you know why a face mask doesn't hurt me? Because I saw sheikh's palace, people in UAE who pay 100k USD for a personalized license plate, gold and silver plated ferraris, private jets and all that. A face mask will at least look nice on a shelf, what about a million dollar dinner with Warren?

[cryptoperkele]

That's not a investment that is stupidity ,vanity and being a selfish asshole ...
If i see this guy on the street with that mask ,if i get the chance i will rob him and give the money to covid vaccine research or to the poor affected by covid ...
If he gets killed ...not one tear from me or remorse ...

People can use their money just as they want and at least in this case he wasn't hurting anyone. I am willing to bet that some of your purchaces aren't ethical at all when you buy cheap stuff.

And i am betting you will get called being selfish asshole yourself for holding Bitcoin in the future because that's going to be a status symbol as well.
