It was just the end result of a successful marketing campaign. I can understand it's plainly a status symbol, but do you think people in the upper class really need to show off their wealth? And if you belong to the Middle class, is it so wise to invest so much on a pointless piece of rock, while your money can be better spent elsewhere?
lol. Hush puppy.
