Prized for its glimmering scales and sinuous body, the Asian arowana is one of the world's most expensive aquatic creatures, with some rumored to fetch up to $300,000. While not all are priced in the six figures, a young arowana in Singapore could go for $300, while rare adult white albinos could cost $70,000 or more.

Arowana, also known as "dragon fish," are not the typical pet fish. They are bred throughout South East Asia and can grow to be around three feet long (about the size of a snowshoe).

Caviar is one of the world’s most luxurious foods. So it’s hard to imagine it was once so cheap it was served for free in bars and saloons around America during the 1800s. In the same way nuts are handed out now, these salty fish-eggs were given away to encourage higher beer sales. But over-fishing meant the once abundant levels of sturgeon fish dropped dramatically, causing prices to skyrocket.

Sushi was first created in southeast Asia during the 4th century as a cheap and transportable snack.

You might wonder how they're going to get this skyscraper to stay upright. Standing 1,428 feet tall with a height-to-width ratio of 23-1, New York's 111 West 57th Street will be the skinniest skyscraper on the planet upon its completion.
