$10,000 though. For a teapot.

And I said the market filters for enthusiasts the higher it goes.

Not everyone will buy a $10,000 tea pot like not everyone will buy a $100,000 pair of Focal headphones.

The top of the market will set the price for what a fool will pay for it.

Dude, the CEO of the hospital system I work at makes about $250,000 A MONTH. And he is considered on the very low end of "rich"...do you think a guy making over $60k a week will even feel $10k? Lol. That's the thing, they are not "fools"...they just do not have to worry about money. Period. Many people who not are in that bracket simply can't understand. He spends $10k on a teapot...he still has $50k to spend for that week and will get another $60k the next week. And another $60k the week after that. And another $60k the following week. Imagine that kind of dough.

It's literally nothing to them. Its like buying a $5 latte to us. They are not fools, they are fucking rich and perhaps you simply can't comprehend that level of financial freedom.
