At about 5 1/2 inches across and 2 1/2 inches thick, the mound of meat is comprised of beef from three continents — American prime beef, Japanese Kobe and Argentine cattle.The bill for one burger, with garnishing that includes organic greens, exotic mushrooms and tomatoes, comes out to $124.50 with tax and an 18 percent tip included. The burger debuted Tuesday at a restaurant in the Boca Raton Resort and Club, where a membership costs $40,000 and an additional $3,600 a year.

That's crazy! I would never pay that much for a burger! Even if I was rich I wouldn't waste 100 dollars on a damn burger I don't care where or from what cow it came from

This is a burger targeted at the rich, and if people are willing to pay for it, why not?
Not sure about prime or Argentine beef, but Kobe beef is quite expensive.
That said, I'm a poor student and find it hard to afford a $10 burger so, no, I would not pay $100 for this burger.

How can they do that to Kobe beef? Mix it with lesser meats, toss it on a burger and smother it with ketchup. That should be a crime!!

I read this same article off of Yahoo and I agree that it is abysmal for anybody to pay more than a couple of bucks for a hamburger.

No it would be cheaper to grow my own cow and plus it would be a lot more meat. Sounds like people have too much money to throw away. Maybe they should send it to me instead!

i heard this story on the news. i think i'll stick to the McDonald's dollar menu. you could buy 100 hamburgers (it's not on the dollar menu, but it's $.85 here) with $100 + tax.

No, there are alot of things that I could spend a hundred dollars on, and it would be foolish to spend that kind of money on a hamburger.

I would want way more than one hamburger for $100.

What nonsense!
This is strictly for people who my first husband used to say "had more money than sense."
