Take it from a guy that has to wear one EVERY FUCKING DAY.   |       what do you do in HK now?

Like inzomniak says, spend a bit more than the bare minimum especially if you are going to be wearing it often, and pick thicker fabrics for the colder Canadian weather.  All the other guys where I work get tailored suits and mine don't look out of place at all.  
What's also good is that he retained my measurements so I always get the tailor to send me a couple dress shirts now and then.    
PM me if you want the information.

I thought it was steep having to go out to buy a whole new wardrobe from K&C when I have to work with CXOs, but wow.... 20k per suit?!  You must work with some major clients.  
So all this talk of meeting up in HK, have any of you guys actually been able to set up a meet?

Now that I got married and don't drive anymore, I realised what a liberation it is... no more trying to find parking space, no more telling the car wash lady to try to use more water, no more dealing with merging from 10 lanes into 2 for the cross harbour tunnel, no more sunday drivers blocking Princess Margaret Road going at 50......  
Nice bike btw ImpactX     
Was browsing the SCMP today for new places and saw a serviced apartment for 150,000 HKD per month (that's like about 20,000 CAD).  Why would people rent that when for that amount of money, you could probably be mortgaging a nice place somewhere?

Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.     |
