You don't seem to get the point. That is only universal in current day English. In e.g. Finnish: miljoona = 1e6, miljardi = 1e9, biljoona = 1e12, triljoona = 1e18.

The [artificial] scarcity and [unjustifiably] high price are properties of almost all luxury goods. And those are exactly what makes them (watches, handbags, diamonds etc.) so desirable to many. I fully agree that spending two months'
