Not even close to what I said.
Let me make it clear i think this argument is dumb...
You mentioned a belt that costs double whatever $150 shoes you wanna compare to... I cant think of one reason I'd spend $300 on a belt before I spent half that on shoes.
do work son

serious question:
people really spend 300+ dollars on a belt that feels the same as a 30 dollar belt and its NOT to show off?

Bottom line. Everyone has their preferences and personal justification on what they spend their money on.
If it makes you happy, and you ain't hurtin nobody (which includes not starving yourself or your kids) then go for it.

Personally I really like designer clothing and I feel good wearing a $300 belt. It's almost always covered up so how am I showing off?
I'm not that guy sagging his pants to his knees to show off the buckle to everyone.

majority of purchases are stupid wether it's a $300 belt or a $50 belt. Nothing we spend money is really worth the amount paid.
Man I don't give a **** what anyone thinks of my spending and I don't give a **** what anyone else chooses to spend their money on. You and I will both live with the consequences. The hell do I look like wasting time thinking about how others spend their money? I have enough problems than to have to worry about that

You said sneakers are more essential and visible. My question is do you think a person purchases a belt for visibility?
So you think luxury brand purchases are to show off? Interesting

@Proshares I'd argue that you often worry about the money that is spent by a certain geriatric in Texas, Bobby.Man I don't give a **** what anyone thinks of my spending and I don't give a **** what anyone else chooses to spend their money on.

being at work drunk is fun, until you start to come down from your buzz then its pretty bad
Yeah. I'm coming down now lol. Ready to go home but still got an hour and half left. Was gonna work out after work but F that I wanna re up on this drank
About the spending on stuff....to each his own. I personally would NEVER spend $300 on a belt but thats my preference. I can't really hate on someone who does tho.
My car insurance is $200 so I can't even afford to buy super expensive stuff lol

Yea getting drunk during lunch is cool at first but once u get back to your desk you'll turn into the laziest person in the office. Hurts worst when you realize that you have 3 or 4 more hours left until 5:00.

real talk my biggest wastes of money has to do with tickets, my license, emissions tests, stuff getting suspended then reinstated then suspended again.
in the past 3 years or so i've bought cars, crashed cars, had to buy cars again, car breaks down on me so now i have to pour money into it endlessly, then it finally dies and i gotta sell it for practically nothing and buy ANOTHER car, then get a nother car and the same thing happens, then buy ANOTHER car, then total that car in an accident that wasn't my fault but i can't collect on it because i didn't have insurance and my license was suspended at the time.
i realized i have to live in a city with good public transportation, because right now i'm not responsible enough to own a car.
i'm over driving, for real. i quit cars. i just don't deserve one.
