If relatively unknown painters can become millionaires, then Bono with his smart investment choices can certainly become a billionaire. In 2009, the rockstar paid up $90 million and bought himself a 1% stake in Facebook. Since then he was content to sit back and let things run their course. In merely three years, his investment has reached gargantuan proportions.

Disney has decided to add to the allure of their Rapunzel character by launching a limited edition doll that will only have 8,000 dolls available world-wide. While we certainly prefer a Rapunzel over a Kardashian anyday, its kind of surprising that Disney wanted to do a limited edition. Apparently, the publicity and relatively higher prices (its not that expensive at $100) is more important then ensuring that every little girl gets her own Rapunzel.

Its one scenario that no one could have prophesied. One World Trade Center, the building that is to take the place of New York’s twin towers are to cost $3.8 billion to construct. This effectively means that this building is the most expensive office tower in the world. It even beats the Yongsan Landmark Tower in Korea which we though was a whopper since it cost $3.45 billion and a lot more then the Burj Khalifa (which is usually what people think of when they are thinking about tall and expensive buildings). The Burj Khalifa was a lot cheaper in comparison at a ‘mere’ $1.5 Billion. Part of the lower costs are attributed to the fact that the Burj has been completed since a few years now and inflation / construction materials are a lot more expensive thanks to the hunger of India and China.
