You're going too high. Apple doesn't sell $300 phones for $1000 to people who buy $20,000 bags. Well they do but they don't make hundreds of billions in profit by targeting the 0.01% of consumers. They do it by making lower class folk feel like the 0.01% when they spend $500 on headphones.

The people Apple will make their money on selling $550 headphones to probably make a lot less per year than the readers of this comment do.
