The Most Expensive Saddle in the World
December 9th, 2011
One of the most expensive horse racing saddles in the world weighs in at over one million dollars, apparently. I find it interesting that someone would have so much money to make a saddle like this, let alone who would have enough money to buy one. It got me thinking today about how some have so little and others so much. No matter how “civilized” society gets, we will always keep the pyramid shape it seems: the poor masses laboring at the bottom, and the privileged few at the top. We’re not kings and surfs, anymore. However there is just as big of a discrepancy in income as there ever was in history between the rich and the poor, as evidenced by the million dollar saddle, and the poor person struggling to feed their family.
