The other day I was talking to someone about what it must be like to have “Fuck You Money.” You know, the kind of money that lets you do literally anything you want, because you can simply buy everyone else. Showing up to a black tie dinner in sweat pants because your net worth is 10 times everyone else’s. Stuff like that.
Today we discussed how to dress for Pebble Beach so you fit in with the millionaire car people. Pink pants, bow ties, etc. Forget that. I want to dress like someone with “Fuck You Money.”
And while it’s normally against my policy to award COTDs to my fellow staffers, Sam Woolley from the Gawker Art Department (the best art department in the biz!) nailed it here:
Now THAT is what a real rich person looks like. They don’t care, because they don’t have to.
Congrats on your COTD win, Sam! You’ve inspired us all to dress for success!
