So being rich is a fairly new thing to you? What are you gonna do when you get used to it?
A new London bus costs around £300k, so whilst is plausible that the watch cost more than my ‘car’, it’s a pretty stupid way of spending that amount of money…
My car was a present, any watch costs more than my car
Holds up wrist sporting a Casio F-91W “Al-Qaida”
Big deal… This watch also costs more than my car.
Do have some other investmentadvice I shouldn’t heed?
Does your watch get good milage?
Great! Does it help you with not shooting people as well?
hes just have a itchy trigger finger.
-“What time is it?”
Do you say shit like that because nobody can tell the difference between your watch and a cheap one?
You spend this much money for a watch that can’t even turn a deer into roadkill? Your loss.
“Does is keep better time than my 15 dollar digital Casio? Is it sturdier? Will it last longer? Is it more comfortable? No? So you spent a ridiculous amount of money to buy a less functional watch made out of precious essential materials just to try to impress people like me?”
Honestly though, if you want to piss watch people off, just say “Oh, it looks just like a regular watch, thanks for pointing it out”.
“Oh, you could only afford one watch?”
“Hey what time is it? Im suppose to meet up with some friends later.”
“Good for you. Have a cookie. My $20 Casio tells the time just as well.”
Probably more accurate. It wasn’t called the Quartz Apocalypse for nothing.
You gotta understand this proving your worth by buying ridiculously expensive shit and then bringing attention to it is an attitude of “new money”
Rich people who have been rich for generations will have the same time piece but they will not even think about it. It’s granted to them, part of their life that they would never question. Like you putting on socks.
And that is the attitude that new money cannot understand. Hell that’s kind of what the great gatsby is about, new money just not getting that the expensive shit is just more furniture.
So the most frustrating thing to this mindset is to treat it as no big deal, or even weird that they would bring it up which really it is
