Does Money matter more than Awards ? - "NO"

When it comes to Honda, especially Accord, I don't think there will be a considerable number of voices against it!
Many of us would have already seen this award winning Honda Accord advertisement, for those who haven't, you just have one amazing video below! Go on and watch it!!
This is the world's costliest commercial, the total cost of which was estimated to $6.9 million.
The fabulous 90 seconds commercial took around 606 takes and re-takes to attain completion.
"HARD WORK PAYS" isn't it ?? After watching the advertisement, I wanted to modify this statement slightly. "PAID HARD WORK PAYS EVEN MORE" :)
Being in a 'money-threatened' world, I guess you guys will agree with me.
Apart from the tremendous hard work, it also required a strong investment, which altogether was paid back as awards. Awarded as the Best advertisement of the year - 2007, this commercial also fetched the team many other awards.
Those instruments or gadgets seen in the advertisement are exactly the components of Honda Accord and it was pretty obvious.
