Would you pay $180,000 to sit for a cup of coffee with Tim Cook?

First, Facebook said that anyone who wanted to message CEO Mark Zuckerberg on the social network can do just that by paying $100 per message. Some of us said ''Mark is making himself an Internet God", but here comes the unbelievable. Anyone who wants to sit down for a cup of coffee with Apple CEO Tim Cook should pay $180,000. Surprisingly enough, there are 52 bids and someone has already placed a bid of $180000 (an Apple insider).
Tim Cook has said to auction 30 minutes to an hour with the two lucky winners through CahrityBuzz, and all proceeds goes to charity.
Among the bidders are top celebrities like David Letterman, Peyton Manning, Robert DeNiro and Alex Trebek.
Personally, I believe the winners would like to show off about this. But wait a minute before you leap, there are strict rules. The auctions reads that '"the winners cannot blog, talk to press,write about, social network, take photos or record the experience in any way because of security regulations.
Also, would-be winners will sign an NDA, non disclosure agreement and we have to pass security screening.
The auction still has 19 days remaining, as it will close on May 14. So guys, go bidding!
