I like pineapples but sometimes the doorman doesn't like plastic so I buy new apples and burn them hoping for methane.

Hope that helps.

for clarity - my annual household income is just under $200K this year. I only wear bespoke clothing, aside from underwear, socks and gym clothes, pretty much. but that means I buy very little - I haven't bought a suit in 7 years or shoes in 4 years. I get my shoes in hungary, my suits in India, and my shirts in Hong Kong. there is no way I could dress the way I do if my clothes were italian or english.

I think your poll might prove more useful if you start at under 200K and then go up from there.
