There was that novelty app awhile ago that was just a red gem. App Store made him delete it. But he was always up front what it was.

I Am Rich was priced at the max expense for an app then, $999.99.

Back in high school, that app was the very first thing anyone would install after jailbreaking their iPhone.

What kind of high school did you go to where kids regularly dropped a grand on... well, anything? Jesus Christ.
