Snowmobile, $12,500
Snow problem? No problem: With this 110-horsepower fuel-injected demon, you'll get over the river and through the woods to Grandmother's house before she can fish her dentures out of the glass. Advanced suspension, V-twin engine, and, of course, Brembo hydraulic brakes, which you'll need-trust us. (Redline, 760-599-1003, redlinesnowmobiles.com)

Safe, $263,750
There's something about a safe that fosters intrigue, excitement, and the sense that its owner is a person to be taken seriously. Especially when said safe is a gleaming 3,400-pound block of steel and titanium, with 10 ostrich-leather-lined drawers, a lockable safe-within-a-safe, chrome or brass handles, and two (seemingly) uncrackable, digitally controlled doors to protect what's inside. Because your precious loot-whether it's an heirloom ruby necklace, your B-school acceptance letter, or the $13,208.61 we've thrown in-is only as valuable as the box you keep it in.

Slippers, $210
The warm flannel of your bed surrounds you like a womb. The radiator ticks and hisses in the corner, a comforting soundtrack to the end of a dream. Finally, it's time to crawl out of bed. You slowly slip a toe out, and-blam! The cold, hard floor attacks your foot and violently hoicks you from your happy sleep. To prevent system shocks like this from happening in the future, we have three words for you: cashmere and leather. (Armand Diradourian, 323-651-2125; Paul Smith, 212-627-9770)

Briefcase, $10,000
Simple, elegant, understated . . . kind of like haiku! Show them who's boss with / Alligator skin so soft / Don't worry-no fangs. (Martin Dingman, 800-955-2358, martindingman.com)
05
Radio Station, $700,000
Say it loud, say it proud. Better yet, say it to thousands of people simultaneously-with your very own radio station. There are plenty to choose from. How 'bout an AM/FM combo in the Ozarks? Or maybe a nice little one-kilowatt setup near Atlanta, complete with studio building and broadcast tower? The format's currently Southern gospel, but feel free to wheel in your Led Zep collection. After all, you'll own the place. (buysellradio.com)

Belt, $55
In New York City's garment district, venerable fabric stores overflow with the kind of decorative piping that trims tablecloths and curtains. The designer of this new belt thought it would look better circling your waist. She bought one store's entire supply of this peasant-chic pattern, which just happens to be one of the most fashionable looks this spring. (The Belted Earl, 415-722-9094, thebeltedearl.com)

Dinner by Mail, $276.39
Maybe there's a fresh fish market across town. And maybe there's a butcher shop a little ways past that. But there's also a telephone in the next room you can use to bypass the locals without putting on your coat. Impress your guests with eight-ounce filets mignons so tender you can eat them with a spoon, and five pounds of jumbo sweet stone crab claws that'll bring a little Florida sunshine to even the coldest winter day. Serves eight. (Omaha Steaks, 800-960-8400, omahasteaks.com; Shore to Door Seafood, 800-218-8147, shoretodoor.com)
