They've survived the recession.

One was spotted by a reporter on the Acela last night, who recounted the sighting to a colleague this morning.

Oh so last night I'm on the train, and the girl across from me has like, a Macbook Air, and I just got a Macbook Air. (My laptop melted.)...and she starts listening to music with those earphones where everyone in a 300-foot radius can totally groove to whatever you're listening to and she was listening to Katy Perry which I would never do. But anyway, the point is, she told me about her boyfriend, who is 27 and works at a hedge fund and who makes, she estimated unsolicitedly, at least two million dollars a year.
