If you could have a beautiful portrait of any one person, who would you choose?
Post your answer in the LEAVE A COMMENT section below. I’m not the boss of you, though. Don’t write anything for all I care! It’s completely your choice, you beautiful person.
. . .here are my thoughts.
If you could have a beautiful portrait of any one person, who would you choose?
I’m tempted to say I’d want the original Mona Lisa. But there’s that pesky adjective, beautiful, in there. Sure, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say. But come on, no eyebrows?! Obviously I’d want the portrait solely because of its associated price tag. Let’s say I obtained it legally and free of charge, then was able to sell it for 9-figures. I’d undoubtedly end up suffering from seller’s remorse a couple years down the road when it’s inevitably purchased by a private collector for $1 billion worth of Bitcoin. Remember, I had to fork over a 13.5% fee to Christie’s. A week later, Bitcoin is up 20%. So now, instead of a potentially tax-free $1.2 billion, I’m left relatively poor with a paltry $50 million after taxes. I read it costs about $36,000 every hour an F-35 fighter jet is flown. With the income taxes I paid, I’d essentially be responsible for about 6 straight weeks of F-35 flight. Trying to calculate how many circumnavigations of the globe that equates to, though, makes me want to rip out my own eyebrows.
