What would you do if you have $11.2 Million?

Give it away? Are you nuts?! Well, not for the Canadian couple Violet and Allen Large who won $11,255,272 from the lottery and gave almost all of it away (98 percent).

Violet Large was going through a chemotherapy last July when they knew they got the jackpot from the lottery, but instead of spending the money for themselves, they decided to dole it out to the family members, to the local fire department, churches, cemeteries, the Red Cross, the Salvation Army, hospitals, where Violet underwent her cancer treatment, and organizations that fight cancer, diabetes and Alzheimer's disease and continued to other organizations they soon added to the list.

The couple said the money was a headache with all the calls they received from people who got the news and that there might just people who will take advantage of them.

They retained a mere 2 percent of the winnings for the rainy days.

They were happy donating $11 Million. Violet said "Money can't buy you health or happiness".

"That money that we won was nothing. We have each other." Violet's husband, Allen, also told a reporter.

World's Most Expensive Watch

Do you know what and how much is the most expensive watch in the world?

When I knew about this Chopard watch, I was just in awe, unaware that my mouth was open long enough for my husband to notice and brought me back to awareness.

This watch has three heart-shaped diamonds at the center part. The pink heart which weighs 15.37 carats, the blue one weighs 12.79 carats and the white with 11.36 carats. But hey, wait, what about those sparkling smaller diamonds? Yes, the center watch is surrounded, in a bracelet form, by white round and pear-shaped diamonds. These pear-shaped ones are beautifully clustered looking like flowers.

Such a timeless watch by Chopard will not be behind with engineering too as it allows the three heart-shaped diamonds open when its spring mechanism is pressed, giving you a full look of the watch's face. Underneath the heart-shaped diamonds are another set of round yellow diamonds that beautifully surround the watch.

The carat weight totaled 201 that is why this watch is called "The Chopard 201-Carat Watch".

By now, you probably have an idea how much this costs, don't you? Well, this extravagant creation only has a vanity price of $25M, yes, a whooping $25,000,000!

TRIVIA:

It has been said that lovers of social classes go for Cartier; football players for Rolex but the fabulously wealthy go for Chopard.

Famous Soccer player David Beckham, supermodels Kate Moss and Liz Hurley, and renowned actress Charlize Theron include the owners' list of such exceptionally done Chopard watches.
