A few months back, I paid $75 for a car wash. The young entrepreneur that took care of the cleaning service did a complete detailing job, including removing the front seats to properly clean the carpet, and beautifying the engine bay. The guy even painted the black lettering on the motor to make the engine cozy look brand new. Down Under at the Bubbles 'n' Babes car wash in Brisbane Australia, you can get a car wash from a naked woman and a lap dance, but it'll cost you a cool $82. If that's too much money for you, you can get the nude wash minus the up-close-and-personal element for $45. The establishment is owned by a strip club owner (shocking...we know), and it uses recycled water to keep in compliance with strict usage rules brought on by a prolonged drought.

It should come as no surprise that local government officials were against the nudie wash, but in the end, Brisbane's mayor decided that no rules were being broken. We don't know about you, but we have trouble ponying up the extra cash for high-grade motor oil or gasoline, and seriously, $45 for a basic car wash is pretty ridiculous, despite the "free" show that comes with it.

Thanks for the tip, BolderX!

Not many people would list washing cars as a career aspiration, but then they've probably not seen this video. Here's a guy who gets to work over every detail of the most exotic of exotics, and gets paid as much as ten grand each time he does.

The attention to detail and the methodical steps involved are mind-boggling, as are the costs of the materials he uses (including a $12,000 tub of carnauba wax). Mind you, when you've spent half a million on a car, "cost is no object" takes on new meaning.

Nice work if you can get it....

(Thanks for the cleansing tip, Drew!)
