The Most Extravagant Material Possessions in the World

1. Antimatter (Infinite money - Countless riches)

Beginning from the realms of human imagination, quantum physicists have dared to dream and embarked on creating antimatter particles despite it being a distant dream of quantum physics. Simply put, when antimatter particles encounter matter, both will annihilate each other. Like a positive sign meeting a negative sign resulting in zero. But nobody expected that antimatter particles are indeed real, and now they are vigorously researching, though no research group has claimed to have created antimatter particles yet. Therefore, you must understand that just a fraction of a gram (0.000000001 gram) of antimatter particles is worth up to $100 million, and it takes a year to produce that amount. Thus, it indicates that it would require $100 trillion just to produce 1g of antimatter particles. If you possess 1g of this type of particle, contact the leading international scientific center immediately to claim your reward!

California, with an estimated value of around 600 billion Vietnamese dong per gram, is a synthetic metal element symbolized by Cf, possessing formidable radioactive properties akin to a storm. It ranks among the elements with the highest atomic masses. Primarily utilized for initiating nuclear reactor cores, it serves as a disruptor of erythrocyte formation in humans (fortunately absent in our bodies). If circumstances permit, acquiring 1 kilogram of this substance for display and collection in a showcase would be an investment worth considering.

A synthetic metal with unparalleled radioactivity, Californium is a compelling element with immense value, approximately 600 billion Vietnamese dong per gram. It holds the symbol Cf in the periodic table and exhibits properties akin to a raging tempest. Used primarily to ignite nuclear reactors, it serves as a disruptor of erythrocyte formation in humans (fortunately lacking in our physiology). If feasible, acquiring a kilogram of this material for display and collection would be a notable endeavor.

Triti - approximately valued at 700 million VND/g

Diamond - worth around 1 billion VND/g

Diamond is not just a gemstone but also a symbol of eternity and strength. It undergoes meticulous evaluation based on four criteria: weight, transparency, color, and cut. Beyond mere ornamentation, diamonds find extensive technological applications in various fields such as glass and stone cutting, as well as laser technology. The majority of diamonds available today are synthetic. However, possessing 1 gram of natural diamond requires an investment of approximately 1 billion VND, and even a kilogram fetches around 1 trillion VND, a relatively affordable price on a global scale.

Plutonium – valued at around 4000 USD per gram.

Plutonium is the heaviest naturally occurring element, possessing a silver-white color. It is also an extremely potent and hazardous radioactive element. Plutonium is highly combustible and is utilized in nuclear reactions to generate nuclear energy. Due to its extreme rarity in nature, plutonium commands an exorbitant price, and nations classify it as a substance requiring stringent protection and regulation.

Taaffeite - approximately 20,000 USD/gram

Taaffeite, discovered in 1945 by Australian gem researcher Richard Taaffe, belongs to the group of extremely rare gemstones, considered rarer than diamonds by a factor of a million. Imagine, all the Taaffeite in the world could fit in just a small cup. Now you understand why they come with such a hefty price tag, right? Taaffeite exhibits a diverse range of colors, from transparent to lavender, mauve, or even slightly bluish purple.

Rhodium, a rare and robust transition metal, boasts a silver-white hue and excellent conductivity. Widely utilized in manufacturing and the jewelry industry, rhodium serves as a catalyst in glass production, found in temperature sensors, and laboratory cookware. Due to the challenging extraction and refining processes from ore deposits, rhodium commands a high price.

Unveil the elegance of Platin (Platinum) - priced at 60 USD/gram.

Perhaps many people would be surprised that gold only ranks 10th on this list. Gold is a precious metal but it has relatively abundant reserves and is easily mined worldwide, rather than being scarce. Gold is used in all countries around the world, not only for jewelry but also as a means of currency exchange, with numerous applications in healthcare, food, and beverages. Since ancient times, gold has been widely prevalent in human life.

However, due to the soft nature of pure gold, it is difficult to process. Therefore, jewelry companies around the world often mix other alloys such as silver, copper, and platinum into gold to increase its hardness and make it much easier to work with. Additionally, gold is used as a semiconductor material and to connect electronic circuit boards due to its excellent thermal and electrical conductivity without losing color.
