When you're rich and have completely run out -

things to do with your money (and you don't feel like being charitable or maybe even dropping me an easy mil that would take care of me for the next 15 years. :p)

There's eyeball jewelry:

Want to make your eyes really sparkle? A company is offering contact lenses fitted with real diamonds and gold. Dubbed 'eye jewellery', the bling eyewear sees 18 diamonds studded onto an 18-carat gold plate on a special lens. Created by Shekhar Eye Research in Mumbai, the 'La SER' brand lenses can be custom-made at a cost of $15,000 a pair in four designs of diamonds on white gold, diamonds on yellow gold, or just gold or yellow gold.

Well, ain't that special.

Have they developed the color changing contacts yet? I'd say based on mood. They'd be popular, but probably not work appropriate.

Maybe change colors based on lighting conditions?

What about glow in the dark contact lenses? All the rave kiddies will like those, at least for 5 minutes.

Glowing contacts have been around for a while, though they are only UV reactive.

I don't think I'd spend 15k on those. Their eyes just look creepy.

Is it just me or do their eyes look bloodshot to hell?

Given how bad "designer" contacts of any sort are for your eyes, I'm not surprised they're bloodshot.

I recently read about a procedure that can turn your eyes blue. They basically take a laser to your iris and zap away all the pigment leaving you with light blue eyes. I think that ran like 5,000 an eye. My father had white-blue eyes, and they were pretty damn scary. I'm content with my hazel. ;)

they look possessed, or there from a bad sifi

Hmmmm... You don't sayyy... 10k is a lot, though. :/ Maybe the price will come down while I'm relatively young and pretty. :p

We can take a page from the Spaceballs movie and call it "Perri-Air". We just need to think of a cause for the proceeds to go to. Those rich people love anything that can be considered a charitable contribution!

How about this...you could make a company that bottles this stuff up, then give away lots of promotional gift cards good for buying the air to companies who can then give them out as perks for buying their stuff. As the bottling company, it'd be an advertising write off and then in the end, people buy what you wanted in the first place: your air. It works out better because you can write off the expense of the cards. I think this was just done with the oil cleanup down in FL. Oil company fined lots of money and had to provide restitution to FL. So it provided lots of gas cards which the state then gave away. So people used the gas cards to buy gas, which brought in customers to buy other things.

Now onto more important things...

Oh jeebus, it's like the Illusive Man from Mass Effect 2 has come to life.

Okay, to me the most amusing part of this entire thread is that MikeyNY went ahead and watched Spaceballs The Movie today (assuming because he was thinking about "Perri-Air"). The really FREAKY part is that I just loaded up a new character in Mass Effect 2, close the game after about 2 hours, come here to the forums and see ChemKarate's post about the Illusive Man. The timing... is weird, no? ;-)
