Posh Ways to Blow Your Year-End Bonus

Filed under: Celebrity Shopping


Do you have a year end bonus burning a hole on your pocket? Well then you better get to spending it (you know, for your own safety...) and of course there are more than enough people willing to give you ideas and take your money. Want a new car? An exotic vacation? An expensive work of art? Year end bonuses for some (namely bankers and Wall Street execs) this year are calculated to be somewhere in the $49 billion range altogether, so recession or not there's sure to be some serious spending going on.

Unfortunately I'm not part of that $49 billion demographic, but some of these spending ideas sure look awesome, especially the private jet charter. Hmmm, where wouldn't I like to go?

Will Car Buying Go Virtual?

Filed under: Wheels

According to the company Leadpile.com in a press release, more and more luxury car buying is going online. The company has an interest in the issue because they sell luxury cars via the internet, though they do make some strong points in their argument. Luxury car buyers are looking for stylish vehicles that offer comfort and convenience, and car dealerships could not be considered to be as convenient as shopping from your computer at home. The question is really whether the shoppers will miss the interaction and attention at upscale dealerships, which, in some locations, can rival the level of service received at posh salons.

With buyers who prize both comfort and convenience, it would make sense that they would put the comforts of being pampered at a high-class dealership above the convenience of shopping online. If convenience alone was the issue, they might not hold out for a luxury car in the first place.
