u/ChildoftheApocolypse Aug 03 '26
I don't know, I'm poor and I look poor and I haven't spent more than $50 total on clothes in 15 years..
I think it costs a lot to be dumb ..

u/-PizzaPapi Aug 03 '26
To be fair, spending $50 total on clothes since 2011 is pretty wild as well. Respectfully.

I am a 30 year old man and still wear most of the same wardrobe I had in high school. If it ain't broke don't fix it. I have had to buy a couple pairs of khakis and button downs for when I need to look nice on occasion. Why would I need more than that?

u/FlyUnder_TheRadar Aug 03 '26
Bruh, im a 31 year old man and I'm at least 60 pounds heavier than I was in high school. I have some scattered shirts from high school ive kept for sentimental reasons, but there is no way in hell I'd fit into most of my clothes from 15 years ago. Plus, clothes wear out and my own personal style preferences have swung pretty widely since I was a teenager. Idk how the hell you have kept a wardrobe for that long unless you exclusively bought high end heritage quality clothing as a kid.

For me it's the same. I have clothes from high school but I've somewhat maintained my weight. Even though I do have a gut

I've got some advice for you little buddy.
Before you point the finger you should know that I'm the man.
If I'm the man and you're the man and he's the man as well,
so you can point that fuckin' finger up your ass

Damn, I came up in the 90s and had probably 150 band shirts that got blown out like this. I thought I was being thrifty by using them as rags around the house. Turns out I could have opened a boutique and put both of my kids through college.

u/schermerhorse Aug 03 '26
Itās precisely because you used them as rags that this one is now being sold for $800. If everyone saved them they wouldnāt be worth so much.
