Millions for Andy Warhol


A reporter once asked Andy Warhol his opinion about art. The pop icon answered without hesitation. "It's a nice name for a man."

Warhol has been dead for years, yet his paintings have not lost their allure as evinced by the record prices his works achieved in the recent New York auction.

Millions upon millions for the estate of his friend Fred Hughes.

Also dead.

Proving that while you can't take it with you, just because you're dead doesn't mean you can't make money.
