Whitney Houston is broke as a joke

In an auction yesterday, Whitney Houston was forced to sell off all of the useless things she can no longer afford to store. If you were Whitney, what would you have in storage? How about a red and gold pants suit, a clear piano, and a few gold records:

The sale included a set of 16 music awards won by Houston's estranged husband, Bobby Brown, including gold records for his song "Humpin' Around.""It's the only item that's personal," said magician Meir Yedid, 46, of Fair Lawn, N.J., who paid $25 apiece for them.

Leave it up to a Jewish magician to pick out a deal that damn good. $25 bucks for a gold record? You could probably melt that sucker down and make some cash. Seeing as a VHS copy of the "Humpin' Around" music video is selling for 29.95 on Amazon, you know you got great value for your dollar!
