WTF? $2,500 shots

Thanks to Born Rich in my Everyday Reads for the skinny.

Ever wondered why we celebrate the most momentous moments of our life by popping open a bottle of pricey champagne or cognac? Considered to be the rich man’s poison, here is one more juicy intoxicating news that will leave you more than bewildered. You can raise a toast for signing a billion dollar deal by sipping on to $2,500 shot of the Louis XIII Black Pearl Magnum. Exclusively being offered at Rose Club at The Plaza hotel, the price for a single shot is equivalent to average monthly rent for an apartment in New York. The exclusivity of this Remy Martin-produced spirit is raised further by the fact that it cannot be sampled anywhere else in the State of New York.
