The prices in the world show's exacly that people are very rich.
If nobody can't afford paying those prices then prices will fall If prices are so high it means people can afford.
But it's shame that anyone tell they don't have money to spend or buy expensive things becouse high prices show's what's the new Normal.
New Normal is WEALTH look at the rent prices even not good locations ...lol they are extremly expensive.
Everything show's that people are very rich and all have good jobs and a lot money in bank accounts.
The new Normal is to be very wealthy and it's shame to tell others you don't have money nobody don't belive you they think you joking becouse it's impossible to live in this world like this If you don't have money.
Finally the world is rich
It is good you try to understand that all fingers are never equal. What you are complaining about is what others might be happy about. We have different levels and status of people and that do not mean that everyone is rich or everyone can afford a particular price of a goods. Since we all have different income and ways we can make money, it is good we try to know what we are doing and look for a better way to make money. This is the same reason why the rich are always striving more to make more money so that when you are complaining that things are becoming expensive, they may not understand you since all those things are never expensive in their eyes.
