There was a study years ago about American TV ownership. Size of television inversely correlates with income.

That's mostly because the cost of a TV was far greater than it is today. So it took a lot more money to buy a larger TV. TVs today are dirt cheap compared to 50 years ago.

Well yeah rich people don't have to settle for sitting around the house all day. They have boats and racecars and planes to play with

When they want to Netflix and chill, they hire live actors to perform on stage in their house.
