Comparing the price of tritium to battery powered gunsights, or watches that uses tritium, you can see the suckerpunch to the wallet
Wait, if you can create anti-matter, shouldn't you be able to create matter? I mean yeah, it breaks the laws of physics but it's interesting to think about..
mine are
beluga caviar -$35 per gm
platinum-$48,000 pr gm
soliris-$167 per ounce
plutonium-$4,000 per gm
scorpion venom-$10,000per ounce
Hmm….thought truffles would be on this list.
Please make a list of most expensive pharmaceutical drugs that are NOT used to treat rare diseases!
well i like plastic
My dad can afford 7/10 of these.my family is rich Af.556,129 £ (700,000$) a year
Diamonds are only expensive because the De Beers locked away their vault to jack up the prices.

n one should ever buy diamonds, they're the biggest waste of money on this planet. Incase you doubt me, go ahead and look up the monopoly of the diamond industry, because as soon as you purchase those shit stones it's lost 99% of it's value.
#1: the cure for cancer.
cost: every single cancer-related death since the dawn of the disease, alongside every single dollar said individual could make with their expanded lifespan.
There's something here that most people tend to overlook when it comes to these substances: the time and equipment that's needed to create, retrieve and verify the substance in question
Poorly researched, thumbs down. Many isotopes are ultra expensive, youtube user thunderf00t is currently working with one that costs 70k per gram. At least Helium 3 and Uranium 235 should make the list due to being quite famous. Anti-matter also is a dubious choice because it is incredbly hard to temporarily store it and it cannot be transported, or permanently stored. Also you forgot the rarer types of meteorites, and many of the more difficult to produce superconductors. Only laziness explains why gold and platinum made the list.
Diamond is worthless
A bar of gold is worth 1.2 million USD in the US.
diamonds should be excluded, they're only valuable through artificial inflation
berklium costs more
Only if I knew how valued Antimatter was, I wouldn't have spilled those few gallons I had in my truck 🙁
What about moon rock? I mean, think about what it costs to acquire moon rock. Sure, it's less than antimatter but it's a shit-ton more expensive than stupid diamonds.
I found Australium is that rare?
when diamond is only number seven on the list: NOPENOPENOPENOPE
Inhalers should be on the #1 spot.
You train the way you fight. If you fight in an F-22, you must train in one if you want to survive…… According to your logic you would train to run your Porsche 917 at Le Mans by doing your practice laps in a 1972 Karmann-Ghia because it's also a German car and it's Cheap!!!
One of these days niggers will wear stolen anti matter around their neck "Fuh da rep playa"
diamonds aren't rare, and it sure hell ain't worth more than gold
How many grams=a single weight-type of ounce?
szechuan sauce.
what? ANTIMATTER?
Is that a fiction?
Ehh, skipped over the purified isotopes, frequently in the $100k per gram
diamonts are not worth nearly as much as they are sold for.
The enterprise isn't powered "By anti-matter" it's powered by a matter anti-matter reaction which the warp core creates. Apparently, they get energy by CREATING anti-matter and then destroying it, i dunno…
