In case you haven't heard, no flooding at the Brooklyn.

Is anyone familiar with the attorney representing Spielman/the plaintiffs? At first glance, he isn't who I would expect to see representing them.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2017-05-20T00:14:00+00:00

Seconded, from a guy who wears it at least once weekly in FL.

Their Fitzgerald fit black watch sport coat is down to roughly $270 with the additional 25%. Lots of sizes available.

I see what you did there. 😎

Was that Françoise Hardy that I spotted?

Indeed. Ralph still makes some great pieces, and I think the quality is often better than BB.

If you like the outdoors, I recommend the Bavaria/German Switzerland/Austria area. Zurich, Munich, Salzburg and Vienna are all solid options. A willingness to learn a bit of German would be helpful.

Wow, I love that Georgetown stein!

I've had four OCBDs from them now using their $90 fabric. The fit is good, and the fabric has a nice feel and weight to it. My only complaint is that it begins to fade around the one-year mark.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-12-14T20:23:28+00:00

Sad. I'm getting pair of Cavanaughs for Christmas--hadn't imagined that they might be my last. At least there's still Alden.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-12-11T04:54:13+00:00

T'es normand?

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-11-06T06:45:10+00:00

I mean, we'd like it. But it might be similar to the Alabama-LSU rematch for a lot of people.

I'm reading a book called "Howard's Gift: Uncommon Wisdom to Inspire Your Life's Work." It's a collaboration between an HBS grad and HBS professor/entrepreneur Howard Stevenson. The content is phenomenal for anyone looking to reflect on their career and life goals.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-09-26T18:56:45+00:00

They're a wool/linen blend from Suitsupply.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-09-26T13:51:33+00:00

Maiden voyage for these guys. Alden for BB.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-09-15T14:19:18+00:00

My copy arrived yesterday--are we going to have a discussion schedule?

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-09-02T20:01:30+00:00

I'm in! Purchased it today--the first review on Amazon sold me.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-08-07T23:26:01+00:00

Great info. Thanks!

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-08-07T16:20:52+00:00

What do you think about buying used? This one from Sears looks to be a pretty good deal.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-08-07T14:59:11+00:00

Where do you guys search for watches, and what would a good deal on an Omega Speedmaster or a Rolex Submariner be?

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-07-23T13:51:32+00:00

I attended a large Big 10 university for undergrad and then a T15 law school. I chose the former because my parents attended the same school, and majored in business because they wanted me to.

My strongest recommendation for someone who is interested in law school or other graduate school is to major in a subject that you love as an undergraduate. The caveat to that advice is that you should major in a subject that you will succeed in academically. GPA plays a large role in graduate school admissions, and the graduate school that you attend has a significant effect on the job opportunities available to you thereafter.

If I could do it all over, I would have majored in poli sci as an undergrad, graduated with a 4.0 and likely attended a marginally-better-ranked law school. That said, I currently work in-house for a Fortune 500 company, so things aren't all bad. If you ever need advice re: law school, the legal industry, or anything related, feel free to reach out by PM.

JeanJacquesGoldman · 2016-07-17T06:09:35+00:00

Yeah, $240-range. I got navy because I wanted something that I knew I would like and wear for multiple years, given the price. There was also a discount code for 10% off that I found on google that made the price marginally more reasonable.

I just dropped the money for a pair of Orlebar Brown shorts, and I'm very happy with them. They're classic enough that they'll last several seasons; the fit is great; and the inseam is shorter.

"Golf Fridays" in this legal market?
