What to some here seems like not a lot of money also happened to get them the bicycles they wanted. That same amount of money would put food on quite a few peoples' plates in other countries. It also puts most of us here into the category of the rich. (I don't believe any of us have an obligation to help those people unless it means influencing their govts to alter their practices in order to improve their citizens' conditions )

I think it's spectacular marketing for someone to realize that people who want to flaunt their wealth would buy products which fulfill no discernable purpose other than to look functional. And then capitalize on it. Brilliant!
