According to Alan Greenspan, underwear sales are directly correlated to the economy - underwear sales go down when the economy is rough and they go up as the economy goes up. Currently, underwear sales are up.
On a related note, one of the first times I realized I wasn't "grad-school poor" anymore was when I needed new underwear and thought, "I can just buy them now. I don't need to wait until my next paycheck and make them my 'luxury' purpose of the month." So yeah, I think Greenspan is onto something.
And I just shared way too much information about my underwear. Sorry.
