Black in the Closet
January 11, 2025
One of the members of our tribe, JT, asked about the all-black wardrobe after my post on Old Money and Inflation. Even though I’ve discussed the all-black or mostly black wardrobe in previous posts (living in Paris, it was inevitable), I thought that the question warranted another post. My thinking is this: if you can … More Black in the Closet
Old Money and Inflation
January 6, 2025
Greetings. Happy New Year. I hope everyone’s holidays were joyful and safe. If the past two months are any indication, 2025 should prove to be an eventful year. We have a Republican president, a Republican majority Congress, and a Republican majority Senate. If the party’s campaign promises hold, the United States will see reduced immigration, … More Old Money and Inflation
A Divide in Diet
October 29, 2024
Thanks to David, our valued foreign correspondent and long time Member of the Tribe, we have the following article on the intersection of class and diet. I can relate to the author’s sentiments for several reasons: I opt for a plant-based diet, as he does; I do view much of the world and its behaviors … More A Divide in Diet

So I spent about a week and a half doing interviews, speaking with university students, and shooting videos to promote the release. It was a hectic but rewarding experience, and I’m very excited to have another … More Update From Here
At Odds With Tradition and Change
October 12, 2024
In this digital age in which technology rapidly impacts our lives–for better or worse–it’s important to be conscious of our traditions and our decisions to hold onto them, allow them to evolve, or to let them go and fully embrace change. I think technology is an accelerator, especially as it relates to the internet: it … More At Odds With Tradition and Change
Does The Boarding School Experience Breed Minimalists?
October 3, 2024
Greetings, Tribe. I hope the C&C Challenge is going well. The comments have been absolutely hysterically funny, making me think that abstaining from Complaining and Criticizing has been just as daunting a task for others as it has been for me. Good. Misery loves company. Seriously, it’s been a huge benefit to me to adopt … More Does The Boarding School Experience Breed Minimalists?
The Old Money C&C Challenge
September 24, 2024
My apologies for the brief absence. Absolute madness reigns supreme here, but I cannot complain. Which brings me to the point of this post. I’m issuing a challenge to my dear readers, and it is this: for the next 24 hours, make your best attempt not to complain about anything, and not to criticize anyone. … More The Old Money C&C Challenge
At The Intersection of Minimalism and Charvet
September 6, 2024
It was recently brought to my attention that Charvet shirts may not be exactly an Old Money wardrobe staple. This may be true in the United States, but it is probably less true in Europe. While it is difficult to justify the price of a Charvet shirt, it is impossible to argue with the quality … More At The Intersection of Minimalism and Charvet
