From luxurious cars to diamond-studded mice: the new extravagance redefining wealth

Expensiveness is a relative term that varies from person to person. For billionaires like Elon Musk, the term is likely non-existent. However, extravagance isn't exclusive for the uber-rich. It shows up in utterly unexpected forms like the Finalmouse Starlight-12 Diamond Edition mouse.

As you can infer from the name, the mouse boasts intricate engraving of diamonds. A total of 50 units were produced, with each priced circa $100,000. Translated into Polish zlotys, it rounds up to about 430,000 zlotys at the current exchange rate. It should be noted the dollar is depreciating at the time of writing.

The Finalmouse Starlight-12 Diamond Edition Mouse stands as one of the premier offerings from Finalmouse and sets itself apart from the standard variant by its finish of shimmering 14-carat diamonds. While it remains unknown if anyone splurged on the mouse, three units were tagged as giveaways to renowned streamers. Recipients included Tfue, Bugha, and Summit1g, who admittedly struggled to grasp that such a mouse would land in their possession.

Tfue, on his part, decided against keeping his diamond mouse. However, the mouse didn’t return to Finalmouse as one might expect. Instead, together with the brand, he organized a giveaway contest on his social media platform, promising one lucky winner the chance to lay claim to the coveted mouse. Winning such an intricate gadget from a beloved streamer certainly escalates the thrill.

Finalmouse presented multiple diamond mice for giveaways, three of which we are sure about. Each of these attuned to Greek mythology, representing a particular God with color-coordinate themes. The black mouse signifies Hades, the God of the Underworld, the red symbolizes Ares, God of War, and the white represents Zeus, the King of Heaven and Earth.
