Underwear - £5.  
Nightie - £10.

I’m worth £15 - that is, about twenty five dollars.

God, I feel cheap.

Currently:

Glasses - $200  
Crucifix - $20?  
Sweats - $20  
T-Shirt - $20

**$280**  
When I dress for work in about thirty minutes:

Glasses - $200  
Crucifix - $20?  
Sweats - $20  
T-Shirt - $20  
Scrubs - $30  
Shoes - $30  
Wallet - $40  
Contents of wallet - $175  
Keys (access to car) - $1,200

**$1,735**  
Of course, counting depreciation, it’d be more like $1,000 but only from my cash and car. I doubt anyone would want anything else I have.

Hmm.

Pair of light cotton shorts: Maybe £5?

Umm. Yeah. That’s it. 🙂 (Well I am just about to go to bed).

Were I wearing what I was earlier (just guesstimates):

‘Casual Club’ Shirt: £20  
Trousers: I’m not really sure. Lets say £40, on the grounds that trousers tend to cost too damned much (I’m cheap).  
Belt: Probably £15, although it’s rather old and worn by this point.  
Shoes: £30  
Mobile Phone: £80  
Wallet: £20 + £30 in Cash  
Underwear & Socks: Not much. Probably £2 together.

Total: £237. That’s about $393.

I really shouldn’t have done that calculation. Now I’m going to feel all self-conscious… I guess I’ll just have to walk around town naked. 😃

I am officially stunned at how much some people spent (or whose fiancee/spouse spent) on their jewelry. Yow.

REI desert pants: $35  
Underwear: $5  
Spyderco knife: $40  
Bottle opener/keyring: $4  
Inhaler: $10  
Watch (w/o band, in pocket) $0 (hey, I found it years ago)  
Glasses: $300 (They’re very stylish, honest)  
Wallet: $35  
Money in wallet: $105 EC, about $39 USD  
Wedding ring: $200, I’m guessing.

Total: $668

Huh. Worth more than I thought.

Hmm. Pants, socks, T-shirt. Don’t think any of them cost more than £3 brand new. And they sure as heck aren’t brand new now. Don’t wear jewelry, don’t wear glasses, not wearing watch.

So … £9. About $15 US, I think.

</div>

Pair of sweatpants–$12  
Boxer shorts–$4  
T-shirt–$12  
Handkerchief–$1.50

That’d be $29.50 and the privelege of seeing me naked. $29.51, if you include the patina of deodorant on my armpits, but I don’t think I’ll be robbed of that.

They are cheap and comfortable, and they actually look okay, but they are not durable. Which is okay, because some dog or other will always find them and eat them after about a month or so (my fault, I always forget to to pick them up after awhile).

Cash: 78 cents

Watch: ~$15  
Jeans: $5  
Shirt: $3  
Shoes: $5  
Hair thing: .50c maybe  
Underwear: Maybe $5 total?

$33.50 total… and this is how I go out in public. A lot of my clothes are bought from Value Villages when they’re having their 50% off sale, that’s why they are so cheap. It’s actually pretty good quality stuff. Admittedly it would be more if I was still wearing a belt, jewelry, wallet. etc, but I take that off when I come home.

If I arbitrarily take out the ring and the watch, it comes to $730. Price for stripping me of all in public? Rage. You may come up negative on the deal.
