Manhattan real estate is insane. Let's not forget: this is New York City. It's a world leader in all things opulent and ridiculous. Example: Donald Trump, and everything he's ever done. 

So with the recent news that you can't really buy an apartment in Manhattan for less than a $1 million, we're still kind of spun that a million bucks just gets you access to the lower price points for purchasing living space in the city. 

At the same time, we're not surprised at all because, true life: we're in the most expensive city in the world. So with that fact in mind, we're running down seven of the priciest luxury properties for sale in Manhattan.

If you can afford these, then congrat-u-effn-lations, because you're one of not too many people worldwide even in the market for one of these spots. 

Pat yourself on the back with a diamond encrusted back scratcher, if you don't already have an assistant for that. 

According to StreetEasy, the eight most expensive properties for sale in Manhattan range from $76,500,000 to $120,000,000. Yes, American dollars. We're listing from least most expensive to most most expensive. Check it out...

1. 432 Park Avenue #PH88 ($76.5 million)

This is the ultimately unimpressive least most expensive listing. It's, just ok. With five beds and seven baths in 8,255 square feet we're not amazed. 

Let's be real, at $76.5 million, it just doesn't have that ineffable magic of being the most expensive place around. It's only the eighth most expensive place around. 

Sure, it's flashy, but you'll notice this is not the priciest penthouse condo in Midtown, nor is it the priciest penthouse condo at 432 Park Avenue. See #4 below for the best the address has to offer in luxury condos.

2. 151 East 58th Street PH51/52W ($79 million)

Being the only duplex in Beacon Court, this unit offers some pretty snazzy amenities. There are white stone floors, a "soaring double height living room," and even hand-sewn leather railings for the stainless steel staircase. 

It's got a very modern feel, unlike some of the pricier more classically styled properties you'll see down the list. 

The only problem is that it's just $79 million, so, it's not expensive enough for us to be wowed.

3.1009 Fifth Avenue ($80 million)

This Upper East Side townhouse has that special "I'm Rich as Hell and I Live in NYC" vibe that only people who own race horses can pull off. You can stand in front of this place rocking an ascot and not appear to be wearing it ironically, is what we're saying.

The facade of 1009 Fifth Avenue is gorgeous. Red brick and limestone combine to make a super classy, though not over the top first impression. It's 27 feet long on Fifth Avenue and 100 on 82nd Street. So, it's large.

But perhaps what pulls together the whole frontal Beaux-Arts ensemble is the wrought iron marquee. Not only does it provide a focal point on a largely symmetrical facade, but also kind of looks like you're living in a movie theater. So, there's that.

4. 432 Park Avenue #PH93 ($81 million)

If you're looking to buy an entire floor in a high rise on Park Avenue, but you simply won't settle for anything less than the most expensive one available, then this is the place for you.

Weighing in at $81 million, it's only $3.5 million more than Penthouse 88 in the same building, up at the top of the list. At the moment, this is the fifth most expensive place for sale in Manhattan. 

It comes with valet, children's room, fireplaces, a gym, and it even says there's parking available. For $81 million, there better be parking available.

5. 635 West 42nd Street #45FL ($85 million)

First things first, if you buy this place, you get $2 million in construction credit as well as a $1 million yacht with docking fees included for five years. So pick up an apartment, grab a boat with it. No problem.

When you're not living it up on the yacht, you can also do most of the coolest rich people stuff right in your building. There is a golf driving range, bocci ball court, tennis court, sauna, free breakfast, yoga/pilates studio, and a lot of other building amenities. 

As far as the unit goes, you'll be mega pimpin' with marble bathrooms and walk-in closets. It has 25 rooms. Some entire buildings don't have 25 rooms. Let that sink in, then go make an offer.

6. 70 Broad Street ($88 million)

This Financial District apartment looks more like a bank or fortress or both from the outside. From the inside though, it resembles something a French king would have been comfortable in about 300 years ago.

But really it's reasonably priced, at the low low rate of $4,517/square foot. Seriously, that's a steal. Are we being serious? We don't really know. 

This one is five stories, so that's pretty awesome. It's the American Bank Note Building for gosh sakes!

It's not so common to find a living space in NYC that's over two stories and you don't have any neighbors in the building. We'll let your imagination wander with this one. What do you think comes with it? Indentured servants? 

Probably...

7. 150 W.56th Street Penthouse ($100 million)

Right now, there is only one living space for sale in Manhattan that's more expensive than the crushingly lofty $100,000,000 they're asking for this one. 

It's 17 rooms with six beds and nine baths. Not too shabby. 

The estimated monthly payment on this pad is $436, 790. Taxes are almost $11,000/month. Common fees amount to $8,618. All total per month? About $456,262. Chump change. 

Are you kidding us? We're beginning to think we can't find a property in NYC that fulfills our need for conspicuous consumption...

It has a roof deck, live-in super (so you can bother him/her whenever you want and not the other way around), swimming pool (obviously...) and 360 degree views of Central Park.

8. 12-16 East 62nd ($120 million)

Now we're talking. $120 million is about the minimum of what we would spend and not feel like we're in a sardine can. Leg room, head room, we need all we can get. 

This 30,581 square foot townhouse in Lenox Hill was actually eight townhouses as of 1879, which were combined in a reconstruction project in 1916. Good idea. You can never combine enough "townhomes" into one giant city mansion, you know?

Not to mention, the property next door is also for sale, but only for $35 million. So if you're trying to go slumming, just buy the place next door and hang out there when you need to "connect with the working man."

The luxury in this property is bombastic. The pope would probably look at it and say "Wow, really?"

But the most intriguing fact about the property has nothing to do with its fancy everything. It's that the place is currently owned by the notoriously secretive billionaire Safra family, whose history is peppered with seriously sketchy rich people drama, like intentional house fires and "murder."

Seriously, we can't make this stuff up.
