Pixels on an Internet site for $1,000,000.

A witty student named Alex Tew wanted to earn money for his studies and created a site where every pixel was on sale for one dollar. The minimum order was 100 pixels and whoever bought it could place their own advertising on it with a link to their site. Alex ended up earning one million dollars within less than six months in addition to becoming world famous.

 

The body as an advertising medium for $1,000,000.

Jason Sadler has been earning money for the last five years by wearing T-shirts with the names of different brands on them and posting about it in social media. His first round of T-shirt advertising went for just one buck, but the price kept increasing over time. Eventually, it wasn’t just him wearing these T-shirts, but he had four more employees who were wearing them too. Not only did Jason himself earn one million dollars, but he also became famous for his brilliant idea. The world’s leading media site wrote about him and even filmed a documentary about his business.

 

A photo of a potato for $1,240,000.

Photographer, Kevin Abosch, earned his million euros very easily. In 2010 he photographed a potato on a black background and sold the image to an acquainted collector. Abosch also photographs celebrities like Dustin Hoffman and the like, all with his signature dark background. This year, Abosch sold another photo of his: a digital image of a rose for one million euros in the form of crypto-currency.

 

Bonus: an auction of “suitcases with surprises”.

Wendt, an auction house, has been selling forgotten or lost baggage of Lufthansa passengers for the last couple decades. Suitcases and bags that have yet to be claimed by their owners for 3 months or more are sold at the auction. The one condition is that the bidder has no idea what is inside the suitcase when buying it. It’s truly a matter of luck — someone may get a not-so-fresh bra for $100, while others could can get a brand new camera. It’s all a suprise!
