Gold hearing aid: Show off your disability in style

widex_gold_hearing_aid.jpg

No, this isn't the latest iPod knockoff to come straight from the streets of China; it's actually a rather large (and shiny) hearing aid (with wireless remote). Many people who are hard of hearing try to hide their disability by purchasing the most discreet aid possible. For those that want to show off their ear inadequacy comes this 24-karat gold hearing aid, complete with 220 embedded diamonds by Widex. This bling will set back one disabled individual a deafening $50,000.

Don't confuse this techno-bling with the usual array of swarovski junk plastered all over regular gadgets — this is the real deal. As long as people don't confuse it for a Bluetooth earpiece, you and your fat wallet will easily be the talk of the party.
