  Well done Ed... You've managed to get both "predators" and "iconic middle 
class consumption desirables" into one paragraph. A conceptual breakthrough for 
the list I would suggest.

    ...

    What this suggests is that iconic new products can take a variety of forms, 
bigger and more elaborate housing for a rising middle class emulating the rich
    for example.  What it also suggests is that there is little that is certain 
in the economy; you may be seeing yourself rising upward one year only to be 
sinking the next.  It's an uncertain world, and as Chris keeps telling us, the 
predators wanting to sell you something you can't afford are never far away.
