    I'm close to $100, but that's not including my wedding ring (can't remember what it cost, wasn't a lot), or my glasses ($300 for lens and frame and exam, more or less). But my glasses I've worn every day for 5 years, actually the frames date back 10 years, so I'm not sure that's in the same category.

    I'm not a bachelor anymore, so instead of the piles, I have a rack for clean clothes, a rack for clothes worn once (or less than a week for pants), and then the hamper. Don't get too dirty/sweaty at a desk. After a certain point clothes don't get cleaner, just more scrubbed.

    Well right now I'm only wearing my boxers, so it's not much, but here's what I wore today.

    Suit: $750
    Shirt: $80
    Tie: $100
    Shoes: $210
    Socks: $5
    Boxers: $3
    Cuff Links: $225
    Watch: $5000
    Wedding Ring: $250
    Glasses: $370

    Total: $6993

    Well, even with a Rolex I wasn't even close to $10k. Then again, there are much nicer Rolexes than mine. Anyhow, take off the watch and I'm at $1993 total.

    right now?

    Old navy pajama bottoms $10.00
    Old navy Boxers $4.00
    "California USA' t-shirt FREE (it was given to me as a christmas gift by my sister-in-law's mother from San Jose while we were at Fort Campbell, KY, but it probally cost $10-$15)

    Market value of my clothes right now... $24-$29

    Whether or not I am a 'phat' American is debatable... I would probally qualify for "fat' american status though... :D
