For Robin Leech-style extravagance in the kitchen, two items set the bar. The spice saffron has built a reputation for being more expensive than gold -- fetching up to $2,700 per pound in recent years.
And then there's caviar. A recent U.N. ban on the international trade of Beluga caviar from the Black Sea and Caspian Sea is expected to cause a sea change on the prices for existing stock. What say you to $2,400 for a one-pound tin of black fish eggs?

My husband gave me a necklace. It's fake. I requested fake. Maybe I'm paranoid, but in this day and age, I don't want something around my neck that's worth more than my head.
