James Bond is only spending around 5K a suit, so Manafort is just wasting money -- (link) - crash davis Jul 30, 15:12 1
- and that's including the small upcharge for the subtle adjustments needed for a shoulder holster. -- nm - peglegpete Jul 30, 15:30
Or the $1.3M for the antique rugs. -- nm - mara Jul 30, 14:43 4
- I can deal with antiques a lot easier than I can clothes. Though I'd probably get fewer rugs and maybe some swords and armor instead :) -- nm - crash davis Jul 30, 14:44
- Oh, wrong line, that was less than $1M. -- nm - mara Jul 30, 14:43 2
  - he was buying Persian rugs and the hi end market on those has been dropping for a few years. He should have bought Navajo rugs. -- nm - peglegpete Jul 30, 14:46 1
    - He should've spent the first $1K on books -- nm - JD Jul 30, 16:16
In this list of evidence here, $520,000 to a store in Beverly Hills, $850,000 to a store in NYC -- (link) - crash davis Jul 30, 14:40 6
- That's a lot of fancy chapeaus! -- nm - Max Jul 30, 14:44
- He also spent this Ukranian money on Yankees season tickets. My mind is made up, throw away the key -- nm - crash davis Jul 30, 14:43 4
  - Pffft. Like he is a real Yankee fan. - Jovian Jul 30, 14:46 3
    - Manafort is a Yankees fans, ergo Yankees fans ruin America. I mean the logic is irrefutable. -- nm - crash davis Jul 30, 14:47 2
      - I do appreciate the fact that Rudy G hasn't shown his face at Yankee Stadium in several weeks now.. - Jovian Jul 30, 14:52
      - that sounds a lot like the Dallas Cowboys & their fans. -- nm - peglegpete Jul 30, 14:49
$10,000 for a suit or pair of shoes is common. He had at least 3 houses. keeping a full wardrobe in each can easily top $1.5M -- nm - peglegpete Jul 30, 14:36
Hand made suits and shoes in Italy are spendy. -- nm - Krusty Jul 30, 14:35 4
- I like your thinking -- nm - peglegpete Jul 30, 14:37 3
  - 👍🏻 I remember reading about Jordan flying there to get his suits made and in the 90s he was dropping $10k+ a suit. -- nm - Krusty Jul 30, 14:40 2
    - And the poor 1% are so overtaxed -- nm - crash davis Jul 30, 14:42 1
      - Clearly. -- nm - Krusty Jul 30, 14:49
