For $75K, The Rich Can Bag This Pink Yurt In The Blink Of An Eye

PROVING THERE IS SUCH A THING AS HAVING TOO MUCH MONEY, THIS YEAR'S Neiman Marcus Christmas Book offers up a $75,000 pink yurt -- which is just a fancy way of saying tent -- bedecked in lush I Dream Of Jeannie style.

"Ever wish you could cross your arms, bat your eyes, and escape to a serene place all your own?,'' the catalog teases. "Well, your wish is our command. Our "Dream Folly" is inspired by the classic 1960s TV show I Dream of Jeannie. Starting with a sturdy 18-foot-diameter yurt—a structure invented centuries ago by ancient Mongols—"Dream Folly" is the ideal simulation of a genie's posh bottle."

The catalog boasts that the "structure consists of a mixed-grain interior lattice system, a Sunbrella® exterior lining, and a plexiglass door and dome. The roof is made from vinyl-coated polyester with an acrylic top coat for extra durability. But it's the interior that goes beyond your wildest, most decadent dreams."

Neiman Marcus, promoting Christmas class envy since 1926.
