Hello gentlemen! As I'm on this journey trying to update my wardrobe and better myself I've run into some annoyances. I'm trying to focus on my more casual clothing currently as money is still a little tight for me. Does anyone here have good luck finding multipacks of XL tall sized T-shirts? The only ones I can ever seem to find from a reputable brand are the Hanes beefy-T 2 pack on Amazon for around $17 (under 10 if on sale) and everything else I find are pushing over 30 to $40 for a two or three pack. Have you guys had any luck with this particular size? Or are there certain companies I should be looking at to find them looking for?

I have an interview with a local grocery store (Giant Food). It’s part time work. But if hired at least I’ll have more to do. This is what I’m wearing. For reference it’s around 70 degrees Fahrenheit outside. I’m wearing a sweater because my shirt is a tad wrinkly. And I feel better wearing it. I also wear black pants (cargos or chinos. Just my chinos don’t currently fit) as part of my personal uniform.

Since I feel like taking care of your body and how your clothes feel and fit tend to go hand in hand, I would love to know "what is your favorite cheap and easy but packed go-to meal is?" I feel like most of us are trying to watch what we eat and make responsible choices so I feel like this would be a good thread to throw in some easy recipes for others to look at.

What to say in your intro? Share where you're from, your reason for joining, perhaps your favorite fragrance, watch or a picture of you dressed sharp! It's a small action, but a HUGE step in you getting value from this community becasue you go from being a lurker to an ACTIVE member. In fact men that introduce themselves are 10X more likely to the actions to becoming their best selves. Bonus Point - By introducing yourself you're guaranteed to level-up. Seriously, you'll get at least 5-20 likes/points (oftentimes more) which will move you to level 2 and possibly level 3. And just like that you have access to more of this community!

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen: As many of you know; my grandson who is 14 years old, came to me and tells me that that he wanted to be like me and dress like me, wear cologne like me. His reasoning is that he sees how people notice and respect me wherever we go. (Yes, I'm having a proud moment), The one thing that I did, was to teach him the way I was raised; if you can smell yourself then others can smell you, now this can be in a good way or a bad way. Either way the point was personal hygiene is crucial to oneself. My grandfather raised us men in the family that you always wear some type of cologne; at the time the cheap thing was Brute 33 and Old Spice. Now, I am not going to spend hundreds of dollars on cologne for a 14-year-old boy unless he is on stage with his four brothers (the Jacksons Five, the older generation). But I wanted to teach him the same values I was raised with, so I buy the generic versions that I found of name brand colognes so he can learn and also build confidence in himself. I had to attend a parent teacher conference at his school, and I had never been in the school before nor have I met any of his teachers or the office staff, ( let me paint picture; I'm black and he is white) ( paint, lol sorry, I digress) but when I walked in everyone knew who I was and who my grandson was. In speaking to his teachers, all of them had one thing in common, they all complimented on how nice my grandson smelled every day and how they loved that he wore different fragrances all the time. Some teachers actually said, they have him sit next to them because he smells great all the time, (little creepy but I get it), some say they have him by the door, because unfortunately some kids do not have proper hygiene and the tend to bring that odor in the classroom with them so when other teachers and adults walk in they smell my grandson first, (again creepy but I get it). I personally get compliments all the time on my colognes and yes, even some made the comments" I am so glad you are here because someone has bad body odor." I have been to conferences where people have asked me to sit at their table because they had someone there that did not have a favorable odor on them.
