This is a question Conspicuous Consumption

Have you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

Several stories
My friend is quite wealthy-ish, and was in Monaco one year for the Grand Prix. He and his business partner were guests at Billionaire's (owned by a certain fat italian) of a guy who had been bought out of some F1 related company and was worth in the hundreds of millions. This other guy bought bottle after bottle of champagne, then fucked off without paying. My friend asked for the bill, and was presented with a tab for 15,000 pounds. Luckily his mate chipped in.

My cousin, who is at university, once said to me "first class is the only way to fly". Luckily he is earning a fortune as an intern at a bank. On the other hand he must be an utter tosser, though I don't know him well enough to judge.

Lidl do a lobster for a fiver. I will have one once a month or so, when I remember. Lovely.

I was in Westfield a few weeks ago with my friends, one of whom spent £14k on a white gold Rolex Daytona. Then we ate lunch there, watched a movie, and had dinner there. Stupidly I had parked downstairs, and when it was time to leave, the parking cost £22. £22 for parking?! Cunts

to be fair,
you can't really fuck up the process of catching said lobster, boiling it and then freezing it.

Preparing it is a whole new ball game.

I just talk to it and tell it it won't hurt.
How do you prepare yours?
