The lure of the forbidden. If you watch documentaries about the lives of the superrich, one thing you learn is that they will pay almost anything to be able to have things that ordinary people can't have. Some just want a rare cognac, others want children to abuse (which is not to say you can't have both). The amounts they will pay for these things are absolutely staggering. There was a good documentary on the superrich in London made recently in which a segment was about a woman who sold truffles to them that she couldn't afford to eat herself. Another segment was about superrich interest in rare wines and liquors. The fundamental lesson to be learned from the doco was that (1) to the superrich the entire point of wealth is that it enables you to have things that ordinary people can't have and (2) they will pay spectacular prices to be able to have them. That mentality will apply to sexual perversions as much as anything else.
