Floyd “Money” Mayweather has taken to Instagram, *the* sepia-toned medium of conspicuous consumption, to show off his brand-new, 255-mph Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse, purchased for $3,498,000. (Mayweather, ever demure, listed the price only to the thousand.)

This seasonally appropriate ode to spill-it-on-the-floor-like-Dom Perignon wealth, cloaked in orange and matte black, is actually one of the more elegant posts on Mayweather’s [Instagram](<https://instagram.com/floydmayweather/>). Scrolling back, one comes across photos of a questionable [Star of David-embroidered ballcap](<https://instagram.com/p/8m3sHvx3UX/?taken-by=floydmayweather>) atop a [pile of money](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotypes_of_Jews>), a [pile of money](<https://instagram.com/p/7Cc-i7R3V2/?taken-by=floydmayweather>) next to a bag of money and a Mayweather original [quote](<https://instagram.com/p/79Mul_x3fb/?taken-by=floydmayweather>): “They say money doesn't bring you happiness... I say... Neither does being broke.” Floyd Mayweather, methodically dismantling pith [like it was Manny Pacquiao](<https://www.si.com/boxing/2015/05/03/manny-pacquiao-thought-i-won-fight>).

So, a career of hits to the frontal lobe doesn’t leave one with Wilde’s wit. It does, as Mayweather would point out, leave one with a $350 million fortune. Congratulations on all the money, Floyd, and drive safe.
