I do get tired of the old insult to art that "I could do better" but for some reason that person has 'chosen' not to make millions and be famous.
People need to stop fearing things they don't or can't understand.
What's there to understand?
That people will pay money for things.

Apple memorabilia and items connected to Steve Jobs continue to be hot items, with a working model of the company's first computer selling at auction Friday for $374,500.
Exactly, really it's not that hard, but as this blog article shows some people still just don't get art and/or how it's valued.
And it's ok not to understand things, but it's not ok to ridicule things just because you don't understand them.
