I’ve been lazy, and am delinquent on my Prosperity Game entries. Phileo’s no slouch, though, and spends his second day of prosperity money like so:
Ever since my high school grad, I have always enjoyed wearing a suit. My recent job interview was the first time in over 4 months since I last wore a suit. I have a 3-button, dark grey suit that I wearing because it really fits the contour of my body and makes me feel real slick and in the zone. Plus each time I do wear it, I almost feel like a different person - I feel ready to conquer the world, I no longer walk, I have a swagger, I feel more muscular, peaceful, and I am filled with an extra boost of boldness and confidence. Incidentally, the secret to looking really good in a suit is not more muscles, or height. It’s having a wide shoulder - this accentuates the chest area. But having a good tailor to customize your suit certainly works wonders too.
This time I have $1000 to spend for the Prosperity Game. Unfortunately, many of the Gucci and Versace suits sell for way over $1000 at Bluefly.com, so I will have to settle for this el-cheapo Giorgio Armani 3-button wool suit on sale for $1095.
And in order to meet the rules of the prosperity game, I will likely have to
haggle with the Armani salesman, and talk him down to $1000!

You aren’t going to wait till you have $25k to spend and go bespoke? Man you’re cheap even in fantasies! :)

Tyro - nah, I gotta force myself to stay within “budget”. In a weird sort of way, this is helping my self-discipline !!!
T’Worm - thanks! it’s not as easy as you think to stay within budget….

[...] Hopefully there is enough leftover to payoff the tab that I owe for the Armani Suit! [...]
