Which one do you own or not own?. Any other not on the list that you own or should own.

The full 47 items list can be found below



I found myself reading through this list thinking "what a pile of crap."

Duct tape, zip ties and power tools? Shouldn't those be part of your well equipped tool box, that was mentioned earlier?

Cuban cigars, vaporizer, scotch, roasted coffee, coffee machine. WTF do I want these? I don't smoke, or drink alcohol or coffee. Never developed a taste for it.

Driving moccasins? Really?

Leather boots that can be resoled? By the time I need my boots to be resole, they need more than just resoling....But thar what happens when you actually work in them.

Aviator glasses? I wear prescription glasses, with light reactive lenses, plus magnetic clip on for when I'm driving.

Bow tie? I'm not the Doctor.

Cologne? I'll pass on the "Headache in a Bottle," thank you.

Suit, sport coat, dress shoes? I already have a suit, and no one wants to see me in it. In all seriousness, I got a suit for Xmas 2013...It's still in its original bag. It's never been altered or adjusted. In fact, it's never seen the light of day since it was purchased. I simply have no need for those above items.

Quite simply, I feel most of the items on that list are rubbish. It would have been nice of them to explain why men "need" those items.
 
I do not smoke , i do however enjoy a good scotch in moderation. These are far from must haves in my humble opinion.
 
If you have Crystal Rose next to a first growth Bordeaux.

You don't need anything else.
