What a $119 MILLION will buy you.
How nice would it be to be rich? How would it feel to have millions? Easy living for the rest of your life! Family and friend would never have to worry about a roof over their heads! What good would you do with your money? If it was me I surely wouldn't spend it on a painting. I don't care what it is. I could see a being filthy rich and having the best of everything but to spent this amount of money?? That is coming from an art lover too!
NEW YORK (AP) — One of the art world's most recognizable images — Edvard Munch's "The Scream" — sold Wednesday for a record $119,922,500 at auction in New York City.
The 1895 artwork — a modern symbol of human anxiety — was sold at Sotheby's. Neither the buyer's name nor any details about the buyer was released.
The previous record for an artwork sold at auction was $106.5 million for Picasso's "Nude, Green Leaves, and Bust," sold by Christie's in 2010.
Munch's image of a man holding his head and screaming under a streaked, blood-red sky is one of four versions by the Norwegian expressionist painter. The auctioned piece at Sotheby's is the only one left in private hands.

I like it . I just wouldn't pay that for it even if money was unlimited. Just think what 119 mill would do for cancer research or to feed the hungry. It's nuts.

Well whatever anybody thinks of it I wish my wife would sell something. She's good but I think she will have to die before her stuff is worth anything.
