Could not agree more.
What amazes me are the bike shop employees with $5000 bikes.
I do not advocate anyone putting themselves behind the financial 8-ball for bicycle stuff. But it makes more sense for a Goldman Sachs guy to blow it on $3600 Zipps as opposed to a normal earner buying $5000 bikes, $400 shoes, $300 helmets, or even ... $1200 wheels.
A $3600 wheelset is yet another toy to the rich guy. It is in lieu of savings/financial planning for others.
Haters are always going to hate the rich guy - but his (or her) logic is not nearly as twisted as others.
