If you have
an excess of cash what would you buy, a car, house, yatch or even a country? Don’t
mind me I am just kidding around but if you are one of those that have 1Million

buy.
1. Raphael’s Head Of A Muse
Many of us
draw in our spare time, but Raphael managed to create a masterpiece when he was

$47.9 million at Christie’s London.
