Pants $14 T-shirt $8 Undies $10 total Socks $3 Medic Alert bracelet $35 Five earrings $12 Cash in pocket $22 Swiss Army Knife $14 Lighter $1 Hair tie $1 Glasses $99 $219 by my count. It would be less if I hadn’t just sold my Stats book, or if I had changed into empty-pocketed pants when I got home. ---

In Canadian: Shorts: ~$20 Shirt:~$20 Skivvies: ~$5 Rings (2): ~$40 Glasses: ~$400 Total: $485 Yes my glasses were expensive. $200 for frames, $200 for lenses That included anti-scratch, anti glare, and special thin lenses, etc. One eye is far sighted, the other near, so one lens would be a coke bottle, while the other would be very thin. It would’ve looked very strange, so they made them both relatively the same size, much to my wallet’s disgust. ---

Everything is in AUD, but I figure it’s more likely an Australian burglar gets me than an American one. If I’d known I were getting robbed, maybe I would have dressed up a bit more. 😉 Boxers - $25 Underwear - $5 T-shirt - $5 Hoodie - $5 (got it on the cheap in Taiwan) Ring - $250 Necklace - $900 Total - $1190 ---

I’m only wearing trousers, boxers, shirt and glasses, so not that much, maybe £50. Wow, more than I’d thought. But it’s impossible to calculate, because the glasses are worth rather more to me, because I need them to see, and they’re pretty useless to anyone else. My boxers cost maybe a few quid, but they’re only worth that to me - no one else’d wear them. Unless someone was weird enough to stalk me and steal them :O, in which case they’d be worth more to them. Are we going on replacement cost? ---

I love reading this thread, and maybe it’s just 'cause I’m an accountant, and I love numbers, or maybe I’m just weird. (note: Those two are not mutually exclusive!) On me: (in Cdn dollars) Jean Jacket (circa 1983) - $30 wallet - $25 change purse - $3 cash in wallet and change purse - about $3.76 hair band - $1.50 glasses - $450 (ouch!) necklace - $30 sweatshirt - $30 sheer top - $30 cami under sheer top $30 bra - $30 (hhm, I’m sensing a pattern) skirt - $35 nylons - $7.75 (just looked at the box this morning!) underwear - (hmm, 4 for $32, carry the 1 …) $8 shoes - $80 walking shoes (what, you think I can walk 3 km in heels!) $50 white socks for walking shoes - (3 pairs for $9) $3 ring from my parents - $35 ring from my great-great-grandmother - $35 ring from my fiance - $2000 Other things I carry with me to work: walkman radio - $60 earphones with colume control $30 sunglasses - $350 my lunch - priceless (to me anyways!) sunscreen - $9 hat - $10 Let’s see … about $3,300 Cdn, which is about $2,500 US. Hmm, although I rarely carry cash, seems a thief could make a lot off me, assuming he/she could see through my glasses, and wear my size shoes, clothes or jewelry. I wonder if someone is rapidly taking notes about who’s the most expensive, and where they are … (-: ---
