If I Had a Million Dollars: May 2009 Archives

Water toys seem to get more and more extravagant (and expensive!) with each summer. The Inflatable Iceberg Floating Climbing Wall is huge and obnoxious. If you bring this to the lake, people are going to stare...and be jealous.

This thing comes in several sizes: 8', 14', and 20'. Each size is big enough to feature a climbing wall. The 20-foot version even has a slide. Even without the slide, it'd still be lots of fun to jump off of.

If you are thinking about buying one of these, be prepared to spend between $5,000 and $6,000.

If I had a million dollars and wanted to spend $5,000 of it, and if I was into Mayan history, and if I wanted to look ridiculous behind a huge desk, then I'd probably love the Mayan Temple Desk. It would be really funny to watch people walk into my office and end up with this staring them in the face...with me sitting behind it attempting to look serious. I don't think I'd be able to sit behind this desk and not laugh.

Don't get me wrong, this desk is very unique and artistic. The design is clever and it's neat that there are built in drawers and cabinets. However, I'm not into heavily themed decor.
