Jim Trippon, CPA and one of America's foremost authorities on the money habits of self-made
millionaires, has released his annual list of the most expensive gifts to give your significant other
this holiday season.

Houston, TX (PRWeb) February 8, 2007 -- American's dished out a staggering $13.7 billion last year on
Valentine's day, according to the National Retail Federation.

"Each year it seems that American's top themselves in spending for Valentines Day," says Trippon, "I think most
people forget that this holiday is about expressing your love for one another, not buying extravagant gifts that
often produce money arguments the rest of the year."

Here is Trippon's annual top 10 list of the most expensive Valentine's Day gifts for 2007:

1. Bombardier Global Express XRS executive jet - $48 million
2. Phuket private island in Thailand- $23 million
3. Renee Strausse for the Bride diamond encrusted wedding dress - $12 million
4. Neil Lane sapphire and diamond necklace & diamond drop earrings - $2 million

Trippon believes that people stay in love when they take the time to become educated about money together.

come up with a plan to spend it as a couple. It will improve your love life!"
