"Alright, how to look rich. There's two ways. One, you are rich so everything you do is spend money on and it shows. The other way, the simplest way I can say is just buy really well-tailored clothes. I think tailoring can make an outfit even if it's the cheapest outfit, if it's well-tailored, you're going to get something that looks expensive. I do this all the time. I'll buy a vintage suit jacket or trench coat or what have you, for you know, 30, 40 dollars in a vintage shop. And I go in to my tailor and I'll take it in, I'll spend another 40, 50 dollars on tailoring so that I kept that arms skinny and tailored. You know, make sure the cut at the armpit is nice. You know, the length of your suit jacket if you, you know, a lot of times with this vintage suit jackets, they're really, they're really baggy so you have to cut and take in all the arms, all the way up. And it's time consuming but that's the best way to achieve that sort of really well-to-do, rich look if you will on a very limited budget."
