A white Asian elephant stands on a green grassy hill before a blue sky. The great animal, a symbol of luck for some, but of cost for others, faces you.

The white elephant is a symbol of luck among southeast Asian cultures. As a result, monarchs once kept them; however, to do so cost a lot of money. So, in modern business terms, a white elephant represents something that is worth less than it costs to maintain. Related to that, there is also a holiday tradition known as a white elephant gift exchange where the participants exchange impractical gifts.    

Thanks for looking,
