Meeting Tim Cook for a cup of coffee will cost you north of $180 000
Tim Cook is one of those people who many have heard about, yet few are ever going to have the chance of meeting in person. Yet if you're filthy rich and don't mind setting aside a six-digit figure, then you can totally hang out with the man for an hour or so. Here's how it works: there's a page over at Charity Buzz where you can place a bid on a 30- to 60-minute meeting with Tim Cook at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California. The winning bidder will have the unique opportunity to chit chat with Apple's CEO while sipping on a cup of coffee along with a buddy of theirs.
But as we already said, meeting Tim Cook personally is going to be a pricey experience as the current bid is standing at $180 000. What's more is that the winner will be responsible for their trip expenses (but at least they won't have to pay for the coffee, we suppose). On the bright side of things, the money collected from the bid will go to charity, with the RFK Center for Justice and Human Rights being selected as the beneficiary.
With 52 bids so far and 19 more days to go, chances are that the bid amount will go much higher by the time the auction closes.
