Want to get something really special for someone that holiday season? Something that can’t be picked up in your local Sharper Image or Hot Topic? How about the late Saddam Hussein’s 269-foot mega-yacht: the “Qaddisat Saddam?” For the low entry fee of $34 million, you’ll get you a massive gold, silver, and marble adorned ship replete with Arabesque arches, fountains, dining- and silverware for 200, a clinic with a surgical suite, a helipad, 14 cabins, plus bunk space for 35 crew members (or servants, whether

you will). The sellers have thoughtfully renamed the craft the “Ocean Breeze,” but we’re fairly confident that no matter what you shout it, the overwhelming vibe of mustachioed dictator will be impossible to obscure. Check the read link for a thorough tour of the entire ship — and assemble certain you have your credit card handy.
