Hi all, I haven’t been around for some time and this is the first thread I clicked on because it simply caught my eye and wow- it feels like I haven’t even left!!!
Right here are my 2 cents (is that how you say it in your country????!!!!) on the matter-
People, this really happened and although it sounds like a joke- it’s definitely got truth to it. Yes I agree many designer brands DO make their products better quality than others but to spend another $60 for a tie or shirt or tee-shirt which hardly differs from quality??? This is a status symbol…it’s like proudly wearing a huge board round your neck- I’ve got money! Don’t get me wrong, I honestly don’t mind people doing that but that’s what it is and it’s definitely not a classic Jewish middah.
Yes I do have some designer clothes myself but mainly if I find that it’s on special offer because as I said some times they are better quality and to spend only $10 more is ok, that’s not called throwing money in the garbage- but to spend major money for something which is hardly superior- is a shod of yiddisher gelt (waste of Jewish money)!!!
But otherwise, it’s great to be back!
