Congratulate him on his obscene wealth for us

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 month ago (1 children)

and make him donate to lemmy for hosting these photographs. Looks like he can spare a couple of tens of thousands for this community

😂 these people have money, you don't get that by giving a fuck about other people. The right people? Sure. Everyone else? Eh.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You can climb a corporate ladder and make this money without hurting people. You can always help people at lower management levels and sometimes even senior manager levels or director levels make little impact. Attempts are made but often shut down or blown off.

I’m not saying a random middle manager couldn’t afford these clothes, but having a big enough house for this closet is not in their price range.

Real eastate prices have exploded, and the salaries are not following, unless you are a top executive.

I’m mid 30s now, and back when I started as an intern, the managers were living in big-ass houses with heated pools on some hillside, driving giant BMWs. By the time I got there, us managers are lucky to own a small apartment in the city or a crumbling house in the suburbs.

Corporate careers are not what they used to be, workers are exploited by capitalism everywhere, just to a diffetent extent.

Who needs that many clothes, and that wardrobe is massive!? 😱

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 month ago

Surely it must take him half a year before he has to wear something again

Step 1: be rich

[–] [email protected] 65 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This entire space appears to be larger than my apartment

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How big is your apartment? This appears to be about 250 square feet.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Which is about 23.3 m². That's almost half the size of my previous flat, I could totally see some super expensive studios that small.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

That is bigger than my current flat which is 22 m²

He's got more clothes than I think I've ever owned in my entire life.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago

Anyone with a closet like that is no friend of mine

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

So now you ruined his system, and he can't find anything anymore?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 month ago

Your father appears to be loaded

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

What's the island for? His watch collection?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (3 children)

It used to be, but now it’s just decorative after a housekeeper stole some stuff. They’re now in the valuables vault (watches, jewelry, special clothes and shoes, etc).

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Okay, this comment pushed me over into fully supporting the "obscene wealth" comments. Not only does he have a giant closet filled with a ridiculous amount of clothing, he also has a watch collection, a housekeeper, and a valuables vault for special clothes and jewelry?!

Obscene.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Yeah that's pretty ridiculous. I've seen some walk-in closets that are pretty big like this, but not quite on this level.

And no fucking vault for shit. Maybe a small safe.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

If you think that's obscene wealth, you've never in life seen real wealth.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

How do I get in the valuables safe and that housekeeper was simply balancing the scales.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago

OP you should prob be careful on Lemmy lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

For when you're walking from one end to the other and need a quick rest. It has water, emergency rations and a radio if you are lost and require rescue

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

Somewhere in this thread there is a new yorker or college student that is weeping right now. That appears to be larger than some dorm rooms and "budget" apartments.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Wow, it looks really good! (That is a lot of clothes though.)

Is there a reason why tshirts are hung instead of folded? They take up less space in a drawer.

What kind of stuff is stored in the large boxes at the top shelves?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It looks more aesthetically pleasing and they’re easier to grab. More clothes, shoes, accessories that are not used as often. The drawers have stuff like ties, underwear, socks, sunglasses, accessories, etc.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

It is very aesthetically pleasing! A very well done job.

And don't feel bad because your dad is rich: no one chooses what family they are born into. Hope he's a good guy. Looks like he's got a solid kid!

I wish everyone could have a closet like that if they wanted it.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I've always hung all of my shirts. But I don't have nearly the amount of wasted money as this guy, so there's plenty of room in the closet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, rock on. It works better for some people. It looked like maybe they were running out of hanging space but the island was empty which is why I asked.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

If you hang dry, it makes it very easy to put them away. Not that I think this person hang dries their clothes

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Why does one need 30+ black T-shirts?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They probably have prints on them. I have 10 black shirts, 10 navy, etc. They're not the same because they have different stuff on them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

I had a friend whos main thing was going to see new bands playing live. As part of it he would almost always buy a t-shirt if they sold them and they almost always were black t-shirst with a print of the bands thing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Just waiting for someone to come along and say they are all slightly different colors.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is your father a footballer? The large amount of cleats says he runs on grass a lot.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, but soccer is his favorite sport to play for fun.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

An American. That’s still just a huge waste of money, nobody needs that many clothes and shoes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

What’s being an American got to do with it?

I can assure you there are plenty of Americans just as “wasteful”, and plenty of non-americans who would view it as wasteful as well.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Nothing at all, just noticing the difference in calling of a sport

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is something I aspire to. I have little space, and use it so badly.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

If you have this kinda money, just hire someone to help you.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

@[email protected] I definitely don't have that kind of money lol.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Get your son to do it for you!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

@[email protected] don't got any of those.

We just moved some months ago. Still gotta put things in the proper place. A pile of boxes in the shed isn't "organized." 🫠

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I somewhat recently moved too, so I definitely hear you. It's been a bit of a process. Good luck to you getting settled in.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 weeks ago

Experts believe that so far only 15% of your father's closet has been explored. Some believe that there's an uncontacted tribe living in there, that's never seen a white man before

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 weeks ago

Damn, that's one closet I wouldn't mind not getting out of
