5 Insanely Expensive Valentines Day Gifts

Jenny Blake
Everyone knows that money can't buy love, but with some of these Valentines Day gifts, it just might be possible to sway cupids' arrow in your future lovers' way. Forget chocolates, romantic dinners, and roses; these gifts are out of the price range of almost everyone on earth! If you are one of the lucky people living in the lap of luxury, and most of us are not, perhaps your Valentine will leave you one of these insanely expensive Valentines Day gifts!

If you wish to really surprise the love of your life, how about a 7.5 carat diamond and platinum engagement ring, from none other than Tiffany & Co., for about $850,000. What better way to almost guarantee a YES answer from your beloved! Hundreds of women love to see that little blue box from Tiffany's, but would it really be big enough to hold a whopper diamond such as this?!

How about an itsy-bitsy, teenie-weenie diamond bikini? Susan Rosen with Steinmetz Diamonds created a diamond bikini featured in a past issue of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition. This lovely creation barely covers anything but will cost you 30 million bucks! This gem of a bikini displays 150 carats of diamonds featuring emerald and pear shaped jewels. All of these diamonds are set in platinum, attached with what can only be called a platinum "string!" Only buy this for the very daring and confident woman in your life!

Are you and your significant other world travelers? Why not buy a piece of the world for the one you love? Phuket, Thailand, is a private island that you can actually purchase. For only 23 million dollars you can own this island, complete with blue sky, fresh air and peace and quiet. You can even be King and Queen if you want!

How about King or Queen of the Road? Luxury cars are everywhere. Lexis, Mercedes, even a Rolls Royce now and then, are as close as your local dealership. However, there is the Bugatti Veyron, at a mere $1,700,000! This car is the not only the most expensive, but one of the fastest, street-legal, cars on the road. Bugatti is known for it's world class luxury cars, but I wonder what the insurance premiums would run on a car like that?!

Finally, every woman wants something soft and warm to cuddle up with, so why not get her the world's most expensive puppy! The English bulldog is one of the world's priciest breeds, because to the fact that for this breed, there is no natural mating. These dogs are artificially inseminated to prevent injury to the female. In the range of 3,000 to 5,000 dollars, you can actually buy your mate a best friend for life, or at least the dogs' life!

    I am just thinking on how many people could eat with a $850,000 diamond. Anybody knows?

    My husband actually surprised me with a new engagement ring. He said he's been wanting to get me a new and bigger one and he did. He came home from the training (he's in the Marines) and gave me the ring. he said he couldnt wait until Valentines Day. Haha..
