can imagine that suits did a similar thing in the workplace at one time. At one period in time, a sharecroppers son and a wealthy heir should have little outward to distinguish them as such when they show up for work at their investment bank.

Funny, I liked the guy\’s comment about \”getting laid\”. I remeber a girlfried telling me she thought suits were sexy. Kinda like that black mini-dress in reverse.

Suits are a \”power commodity\”, and a status symbol, like a fast sports car. All Fortune 500 CEO\’s (except for rock star CEO\’s like Steve Jobs) wouldn\’t be caught dead in a company picture not wearing a suit, especially CEO\’s of Financial Institutions. That\’s why you\’re expected to wear a suit to a job interview, unless you\’re interviewing for a Silicon Valley startup as a programmer (computer nerd). It\’s A-OK for the geek squad and other Internet marvels, but not for brick-and-mortar industries.

You read my mind! I remember last summer I saw these two old men crossing the street downtown. They were both wearing long-sleeve suits and ties in 100 degree weather, and I thought, I wonder if they realize how stupid and unnatural that is. To risk heat stroke just to look important was so pathetic to me. We\’re all human so I\’m just sayin…keep it real.

I agree that suits shouldn\’t be required, and it seems that there will always be trends of acceptable dress, whether it\’s polo and khakis or a suit and tie. I myself have several very comfortable suits I had tailored here in Korea (I teach high school), and there is an overly-pronounced value on appearance here. Nevertheless, when I think of suits, instead of thinking about CEOs and prison uniforms, I think of the portraits of writers like Joyce, or rock bands like Muse, or painters like Van Gogh. All dapper, maybe a bit dandy, in trousers and collared shirts, or maybe wearing a vest… If I was uncomfortable in a poorly-fitted suit, or the style didn\’t suit me, I might do otherwise. But it\’s an all-weather thing, and maybe I\’m a touch vain, but it doesn\’t look half-bad. Of course, there are plenty of ways to have a good apearance and feel comfortable at the same time.

no no no my friend! suits are classy! nevermind the bosses, suits are sharp. I try to wear a suit as often as possible and for no reason at all. I like to show up at casual parties full of my friends who are wearing ripped jeans and a white tee playing beer pong off of collapsable plastic picnic tables and there I am in a nice suit. It throws people off. Suits don\’t mean business, they scream \”I\’m so full of class it\’s oozing out of my nostrils. And I\’m mysterious too.\” cheers.

I agree with you Mark totally. Why wear a suit? What purpose does it serve? I know some people who wear suits who are stuffy, snobbish and they look so silly on a hot summer\’s day. Everyone should dress comfortably like Mark. By the way, I think you are very handsome.

Why don\’t kids in the fifth grade wear ties like I do every day?

I wear ties to school a lot. I am more comfortable in dress pants than jeans.

I would agree with you, however, you are in the position to make rules from looking at your background story. At your status an a successful entrepreneur, there is not reason why you ought to follow rules for those who must appeal to people in your position. As you said, those who are buying something from you would like to know that you took the time to prepare yourself. One of the ways to show this is grooming yourself… Buying a product is the same as buying a service; interviewing for a job would be equivalent.
