This Is Why Mark Zuckerberg Wears Grey T-Shirt Every Day by contactmorak: 11:40am On Sep 02, 2016
Despite being the sixth richest man in the world with a net worth of $51.7 billion, Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg, keeps it simple in his dressing. The 31-year old wears the same t-shirt (grey in color) and hoodie everyday.

So, why does he wear the same thing every day? When asked this question sometimes back in 2014, Zuckerberg cited a number of psychological advantages to never changing his look.


He said:


"I really want to clear my life to make it so that I have to make as few decisions as possible about anything except how to best serve this community,” said Zuckerberg.

“I'm in this really lucky position, where I get to wake up every day and help serve more than a billion people. And I feel like I'm not doing my job if I spend any of my energy on things that are silly or frivolous about my life.”


Simply put, even making little decisions like what to eat or wear can expend energy he’d rather use on making tough choices for his giant social media to make money.

If you spend hours changing in and out of clothes to post your selfies on Facebook and Instagram, you need to think again, except you are really making money from that.

Hmm. I have to ask, how long does it take to decide and put on an outfit on average? If he's not a narcissist, he saves like what, 5 to 7 minutes at most. Now that's B. S

I like to believe Mark understands the vanity in spending hence his lack of taste in sartorial elegance. The trick is to save time, make decisions easier and save up money.

Just becos the t-shirt is not flashing does not mean it's worth more than my earnings in 8months.

I remember wen i visited italy, i went to the centro in one city like that...let's say i was Window shopping. .so i went going through the price tag...the lowest price tag i saw was 800€.. i saw a baby sock for 1000€..na i open my mouth.
most of the expensive things i saw were not flashy or attractive but they were very expensive.

How does choosing a shirt to wear disrupt your decisions making process? It doesn't take anyone more than a minute to put on a shirt. If you say its just your style that you like the same kind of easy wear shirts, that's understandable.
...Anyway I'm quite aware that everyone laughs at the rich man's jokes...

that is his lifestyle. the guy is a nerd, a smart head..
I just wonder y some funny peeps tryna compare a programmer with an entertainer.. say wizkid and mark.. imagine, so u expect wizkid to wear round neck ,no bling, and sing about having millions in his account.. if everybody was like mark, he would prolly be broke.. cos y wud I wanna use Instagram or Facebook.. u have to respect pipus line of business and their lifestyle..
if u wanna do comparison, pick mark and Seun or owners of jobermman or hotels.ng or andella .. den, wizkid vs davido or tekno

Enough of this one shirt, no wrist watch , no security noise you're all making. To be sincere, i find no motivation in it, because if Mark has money and decided not to use wrist it's his choice, and it's not applicable to me.

Don't get me wrong o, I actually envy his success story, but that doesn't mean i should dislike E money , C Ronaldo, Mayweather etc extravagant way of life

So please, let us hear world. When i become rich and famous,i will surely wear designer because i love designers, own a Yacht (big one o), build Mansions instead of house, and employ 40 bodyguards just like Roman Abrahimovic because Nigerian's security system is not reliable enough to protect me. More also, i will gives out and help people especially the poor.

And if you tell me I'm wasting money, i will respond.

The simple reason is because of he is JEW. Jewish people have queer traditions involving everyday clothing.

The principal guiding point of tzniut in regard to dress is that a Jew should not dress in a way that attracts attention. This does not mean dressing poorly, but that neither men nor women should dress in a way that overly emphasizes their physical appearance or attracts undue attention. There are many different interpretations of what tzniut means, so people from different communities will often dress differently.

Maybe he just likes grey t-shirts and has lots of em.
...Or grey T-shirt reminds him of something cool

For heaven's sake, clothing doesn't necessarily tell the personality of an individual. Jeez,
Its a free world. Do what makes you comfy. Period!! !

really?

'Different strokes for different folks.'


If he feels comfortable with that, no p, but as for me being someone with taste when it comes to fashion, my class ought to reflect on the way I dress if I'm as rich as him, and still have enough time for major decision making. And for those ready to quote me without understanding my post O.Y.O.

We are made of different psychological composition, and since this works for him, it doesn't mean same would work for me if I try to replicate.
