What is the most expensive thing in the world

An expense is, of course, a loss of something to gain something else. Monetary it is, as Dukedog said in #4, antimatter at $62 trillion per gram.

More interesting would be something immaterial, but it is difficult to think of something. It should be expense of something worth more than what you gain. If you gain love what you lose is a bit of freedom, but love should be more valuable. Perhaps the other way, loss of a love for a little more freedom?

Loss of freedom and gain of a dictatorship perhaps? Loss of peace and gain of war? Loss of health and gain of disease? Loss of a clean environment and gain of pollution?

Some candidates; dictatorship, war, disease, pollution.
3 most expensive things a man can have: a wife, daughters, a mistress. The latter usually costs the first two.

Actually, to live life honestly, to stay true to your faith, to love genuinely and to protect your family may cost you all that your are... so, I agree with @ZerkorNotToZerk

Women are neither things nor possessions, thank you.
Since, expensive doesn't mean dear to your heart, so it means something material. I don't like money so much that I would simply say: nothing. why would I need a Lamborghini, a palace or a trip to space?

Money can't buy everything.

And I have everything I need.
