« Previous · Main · Next » Glamorous - Fergie feat. LudacrisJEL: a d rWear them gold and diamonds rings Click to ListenAssignment:The singer in the song enjoys the glamorous life of expensive things, however she still likes going to Taco Bell. Does this imply that Taco Bell is not an inferior good for Fergie? What about for the average wealthy person. Ludacris says, "I've got enough money in the bank for the two of us". While they are "taking trips from here to Rome" what is the bank doing with their money? In order to make the actual deposit expansion multiplier get closer to it's potential, would the bank want to maximize or minimize the excess reserves it is holding?
