Ireland's 1.4 billion euro house

Frank Buckley is an unemployed Irish artist who's become famous for living in a Billion-Euro apartment - literally. The interior of the house is made up of 1.4 billion Euros worth of decommissioned Euro notes from the Irish mint; the walls are made of blocks of old money, and the furniture and appliances are sprayed with shredded notes. Buckley says his work-in-progress is about "creating debate". He still plans to build a kitchen and bedroom, complete with a mattress stuffed entirely with shredded notes. Duration: 01:44

Evidently the six commenters below, besides Quik, do not know what DECOMMISSIONED Euro notes mean.

During the troubles, Loyalists and Republicans would kill each other when they double crossed each other in their shared drug dealing business. Today, Adams & McGuiness have moved up the crime ladder and they provide protection to the Bankers who are raping Ireland. The Provos are making good money working as Bailiffs who evict Irish people from their houses so banks can rent houses to immigrants who offer cheap labor to businesses owned by the banks.

Ireland has been betrayed by the IRA.

What a waste! If we're going to solve our, at least, our property conundrum, at least use these decommissioned bundles of cash as insulation. That makes heating the homes efficient and the houses will gain in value significantly.

Had you people actually WATCHED the video, you will realize he didn't just have 1.4 Billion Euro laying around to shred. He got the money from the mint that shreds old paper money. He recycled it. Dumbasses..
