[quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How long would a $10k budget for nice work clothes last you?

Is that a couple shopping trips? A couple years? 5-10 years? More?

Just curious.

Assuming I'm starting from nothing?
I'd use it to buy a timeless coat, bag and shoes. Should last 5+ years with proper maintenance

I would hope a “timeless” coat costing $5k+ lasts more than 5 years[/quote]

I would allocate the 10k like this
- coat - 5k
- bag - 3.5k
- shoes 1 - 750
- shoes 2 - 750

2 pairs of shoes because you can't wear the same pair of shoes every day[/quote][/quote]

That is insane- I am in my early 50s and I make 7figures and I would never spend $5k on a coat or over 1K on a bag.  Ridiculous [/quote]

I agree with this for bags, but I do think if you spend $1500 or $2000 on a coat vs $600 you can get a much nicer coat. I probably wouldn’t go to $5k unless I really loved it and didn’t want to look for a less expensively branded version. And that would be valid, imo. Sometimes you just want to get the thing you have in hand that solves the problem and accept that it’s not a great value. [/quote]
