A developer called Armin Heinrich pulled a super-smart marketing stunt recently by releasing an application called “I am rich”. The program costs 1000$ – and all it does is show the image below and add a pin showing your current location to Google Maps:

The application has already been pulled by Apple, but is said to have sold quite a few times…
