Unbelievable. They could have helped many people in need instead of indulging spoiled adult brats.

No not liposuction. No not designer swag. Instead of spending money on the goodie bags the money could have gone to help the poor.

I was being sarcastic.

Though I'm sure thousands of overweight poor people in the U.S. could, indeed, use some liposuction.

According to CNBC, the most expensive item in the 2022 bag is a three-night stay at Turin Castle in Scotland, inspired by Denzel Washington’s “Best Actor” nomination for “The Tragedy of Macbeth.” The getaway includes full access to the 17th-century castle, complete with butler service and a bagpiper welcome upon arrival.

Highlights of the remaining 52 other items include:

A $12,000 “Celebrity Arms” liposuction procedure from cosmetic surgeon Dr. Thomas Su
The title of “Lord” or “Lady of Glencoe,” along with a small plot of land in Scotland
