I suspect everyone buying this knows it's a joke but are buying it because owning a unique piece of the joke holds some value to them. Eventually this will be a mark in history, like the Million Dollar Homepage.
We can shell out $$$ on things that are so materialistic, so consumable, so unnecessary just for our own use.
People keep complaining about wealth, and such. But the truth is, average people are the richest they have ever been. And it's so apparent.
It could all just be a credit/debt mirage. But the poor choice spending is definitely there.
No, poverty is still rampant. Inequality is still rising. Rich people just need literally anything to blow their money on, as long as it's not actually helping poor people.
I mentioned that the average wealth of a person is rising. Which is true. The only thing rising faster than it is housing.
>Rich people just need literally anything to blow their money on
Yes, because there are more of them. And less poor people. If you still can't understand, think of it not as a class system change, but a benefits to nearly-all classes addition.
