A Real Housewives Bankruptcy Auction!

Last night's episode of the Real Housewives of New Jersey included segments dedicated to Joe Giudice showering his wife Teresa with expensive gifts for their 10 year anniversary (despite what seemed like major concerns he had over their financial situation; clip below). Or at least, we hear this is what happened—we were busy reading books.

In the end, there was a helicopter ride, a diamond ring in a dessert, and of course an overnight stay at a luxury hotel... in Jersey City. Perhaps the best part of all this was when the couple pointed out there was a pretty park underneath them during their flight over Manhattan—the pilot quickly pointed out: "That's Central Park."

Surely this anniversary bill was just the cherry on top of whatever led to their eventual bankruptcy. And now the couple is looking to unload their possessions in a bankruptcy auction on August 22nd—Gawker has a preview of what will be on the block. Wonder at what point during which they were burying themselves under an $11 million debt to creditors that they thought: yeah, let's buy that suit of armor.

    Everything is comped, given in exchange for dropping a name and/or Bravo picks up the tab. Even the Sweet 16 was fully comped. I'm pretty sure danielle's $1,000 hair extensions and her breast implants were comped.

    "and of course an overnight stay at a luxury hotel... in Jersey City."

    They should have stayed in a New York luxury hotel. I hear each room now comes with a complementary infestation of bedbugs. Now that's classy!

    In related news, things cost money. If you are too stupid to earn money those things will be taken back.

    It's the bizarre hair... her hairline is right above her eyebrows. I always wondered if she wore a really bad wig.
