Reminds me of a joke about Russian oligarchs in the late 90s (when Communism collapsed, a lot of state industries were privatized, and a lot of people got rich very quickly and messily).
Two 'new money' Russians are riding in a limousine in Moscow, and one says to the other "You know, I paid $1000 for this tie". The other guy says, "Idiot! I know a shop where you can get that tie for $2000!"
