If
you had the financial wherewithal or means, would you ever pop a pill
for precious poop? Well, late New York artist, Tobi Wong and Ju$t
Another Rich Kid, aka Ken Courtney, in 2005 first created a swallowable
24 carat gold pill that will reportedly “turn your innermost parts into
chambers of wealth.”
The
gold Pills were launched then by Wong and Courtney as part of their
‘Indulgence’ line – an art project that comments on society’s
‘ever-expanding market of luxury items’.
But
the artwork has experienced a recent resurgence from a website named
CITIZEN:Citizen and for just $425 (approx. N) per 20 mm pill, you can
turn your excrement into a precious mineral but it’s unclear as to how
much gold excrement this will yield.
However,
the golden pills are “currently unavailable” on CITIZEN:Citizen’s
online store, considering the fact that to the super-rich who indulge in
bizarre luxurious splurges, the pills will be sold as quickly as they
are placed on the shelf.
