Most People's Houses Don't Cost That Much

So we now know that Drake paid $400,000 for a mattress, and the reaction has been predictable. This article seeks to defend him (sort of, almost) by citing how in Sweden, the origin country of the mattress in question, sleep is greatly valued and paying more for a mattress than for a car is a virtue. Maybe so, but Drake's from Canada, not Sweden, and neither Canadians nor Americans spend that much on a mattress unless a dollar doesn't mean anything to them. Yes, the rich are very different from you and me. Now, I don't begrudge anyone from spending money that they can spend, but is a $400,000 mattress 400 times more comfortable than a $1,000 mattress?
