Born Rich reports that Porsche Design is working on the shiny new gadget shown above.

John Lennon's glasses, yes the legend himself, are up for auction on the British site 991.com. The Beatle's gold wire rimmed sunglasses are currently owned by a Japanese TV producer named Junishi Yore who got them back in 1966 when he worked as a translator for the Beatles, and they'll come with a handwritten note from Yore explaining how he came to get them from Lennon.

Teen Buys PS2 on eBay and Gets a Box Stuffed with $90,000 in Cash

Well here's one way to get rich quick: order from the same eBay seller this kid did in the UK. A teen recently won an auction for a PS2 for £95 that was supposed to come with 2 games. He got the console but instead of the games the box was stuffed with £44,000 (or just over $90,000) in cash. The kids parents alerted police, who have confiscated the money and are holding it while the situation is investigated.

eBay was quoted as saying the contents of the box are "somewhat unusual." Only somewhat? I need to do more online shopping.

The insoles of the shoes, which will be released in limited quantities, custom mold to the players' feet using heat. Externally, the outsole is designed for ultimate precision and grip of the ground. The upper is made of white goat leather that has been laser-etched with a Monogram Bee logo pattern in gold.
