Today, I’m heavy on function! Cindy and I are heading across the pond for about three weeks. We’ll be in the air until sometime late tomorrow. So, I’m in grey nylon hiking pants, a burgundy t-shirt and a tan Cabela’s safari shirt. I promise, I have nicer clothes in my suitcase. A major challenge, is we will experience temps from 50°F with rain, through 100°F with intense sun! That’s a lot to pack. I’ll be on here intermittently over the next three weeks, so I’ll try to be a little better dressed in an upcoming post! Thanks, Brothers!

Centeno videos he referred to recently making regarding “Old Money” after my long post yesterday. https://www.skool.com/rmrs/why-i-loathe-the-term-preppy-2?p=3600da9c As usual he and his group did an excellent job. And while I firmly stand behind my preference for the terms Classic Timeless Menswear his use of Old Money is identical in sentiment: garments that are timeless, elegant, proven, and tasteful. I have seen other folks’s videos that reduces this to merely another fashion idiom. I also stand behind my comments that one should strive to become “old money” rather than just look like it. Or better yet to have money when you are older. As a financial advisor this is what I promote daily. Half a dozen years back I added being a Ramsey Solutions Master Coach because I discovered that some of my clients had come from no money and essentially as they obtained wealth they inadvertently spoiled their kids (now adults) thinking they were doing their children a favor (when actually they did the opposite). I reasoned why fight a guy (Dave Ramsey) who has sold 10,000,000 books helping people and has completed the largest study of millionaires in the history of humankind. Consequently I paid and took their course and essentially have done a lot of pro-bono church work using it. His baby 7 baby steps are pretty foolproof at building wealth. But I digress. I still am not a fan of the term Preppy as described yesterday. But I will concede that if looking like “Old Money” means dressing, thinking, and acting in a manner of kindness and refinement you Antonio are 100% correct. Mia Culpa
