There is a saying in my country - I am not rich enough to buy cheap stuff.
This means that buying cheap stuff, which usually has poor quality, means you need to pay more to either buy new cheap stuff when it breaks or pay for repairs or maintenance. An expensive item would probably pay itself off and be cheaper in the long term simply due to better quality.
There’s a difference between quality and a Gucci bag made in the same factory as a 50 dollar bag the exact same way, though. Or anything like precious metals and jewels.
Anything clearly expensive = fucking idiot
I must say this seems a bit shallow…

Surely you’ve heard of Vimes’ “Boot Theory”?

I have never seen rich people wearing the fake rich brands you see having shops in the expensive parts of the city.
The funny thing is that there are non rich people that will go out of their way to look rich. Pure ostentation
Yeah, expensive shit that looks just like normal shit is a real phenomenon, it’s not only in Succession. Although that’s also dumb.
Prada is for people dumb enough to buy Prada.
