{{ @intercst - Nice for the retired doc. But, has the doctor experienced the feel of a fine Vicuna sweater? }}
Perhaps he tried it on, and decided that it wasn't worth $9,000.
{{ Based on recent content from personal finance expert
Ramit Sethi (specifically his IWT/Ramit Sethi brand), he has referenced owning a $9,000 vicuña sweater.
The Context: Ramit often uses this item as an example in his discussions about "money dials"—the concept of spending lavishly on things you love while cutting costs on things you don't.
The Item: The sweater is made from vicuña wool, known as one of the rarest and most expensive fabrics in the world, often sourced by luxury brands like Loro Piana.
His Philosophy: In a social media post, he humorously remarked, "I bought a $9,000 vicuña sweater but actually, god owns it — im just wearing it".
The "$9,000 sweater" became a prominent topic in early 2024 due to a Bloomberg investigation into Loro Piana's supply chain, which highlighted the high retail price compared to the pay received by indigenous workers in Peru. }}
