Die, Workwear! - Some Equal, But None Better
"I’ve been a client of Steed’s for two years now, having ordered about a half dozen jackets and a couple of pairs of pants."
So, 6 jackets * $3000= $18,000 or $9,000 per year on Steed. Combine all the workwear stuff and I guess he easily spends $20,000/year on clothes. I don't know exactly how much academics make, but it's not more than $200k unless you're tenured and publish loads. I do know SF is pretty expensive, with a median rent of around $4500/month.
So, I wouldn't be surprised if he spends a quarter of his post tax income on clothes, which would be a hell of a lot, which means he might just shill and receive free shit.
Well he is not making $200K. That is what a full professor makes at Harvard.
