I complain when they increase the lunch prices at my regular restaurant by 10%...
On the other hand, this guy is happy to pay $1.68 million for lunch!
Of course, the company he'll be with may have had something to do with it - he's lunching with Warren Buffett!
Here's a link to the story...
Warren Buffett lunch sells for $1.68 million on eBay in charity auction

When the restaurant adds on a 20% gratuity, hopefully the winning bidder has enough in his wallet to cover it. ;)
Of course, "taking a millionaire out to lunch" is success advice you'll see in various places... It can be a good idea, because you can learn something from them, and possibly also make a good contact and friend...
Who's someone that you would want to take out to lunch?
