I've always thought of it like this: various relationships are constantly beginning and ending, thus warranting the purchase of new mattresses (a bigger mattress to share for the start of a new relationship, or getting a single bed when you break up and move out). so the guy who makes the mattresses is always making money as long as relationships are changing "by the minute", cuz things happen fast around these parts.
