In 2008, “I Am Rich”, an app that can only be installed by the rich, appeared on the App Store and became a hot topic. To install 'I Am Rich', it costs $ 1000 (about 115,000 yen at the rate at that time), but basically there was no function of the app, and only the red gem continued to be displayed. In other words, the purpose was to show the surroundings that using the app 'can afford to pay 115,000 yen in vain'. This app has since been deleted by Apple.
A record of what the app was like at the time can be read from the following article.

The website and Instagram account were created by a 20-year-old youth named Leonard Winestock. Winestock says he made the Golden Price Tag as part of his code study. Mr. Weinstock created the Golden Price Tag just for fun, but when he sent the Golden Price Tag to his friends in Berlin, Germany, by email, three of them paid for it. That's right. In response to the question, “Wasn't my friendship broken by paying money?” Mr. Winestock responded, “The amount of $ 1000 seems not to be a big deal for them.”
The Golden Price Tag became a hot topic after being featured in a photo media called PetaPixel. As of September 11, 2019, the number of followers has increased to more than 3,900 for five posts. In addition to Mr. Weinstock's friends, there were rich people who paid for the photos.
The amount of money required to post a photo on the Golden Price Tag is “$ 1000 or more”, and there is no upper limit. And since the amount paid is displayed on the website, a mechanism has been completed so that those who do not want to think that it is stingy will pay extra.
A total of $ 7,500 (about 80,000 yen) has been paid to Golden Price Tag at the time of writing the article. Winestock has begun to see Golden Price Tag as a social experiment and is interested in people who pay for Golden Price Tag other than their friends. “Now that the rumors of such a site are widespread, it's very interesting to see what happens,” says Winestock.
