do you agree?? a&f, hollister, ae

do you agree?? a&f, hollister, ae
do you agree with this statement hollister is own by the same owner as abercrombie so that is why there clothes are the same if you go to abercrombie to buy a scarf it is like 80 bucks but in hollister it is like 30 -40 bucks for the same one different logo and hollister is a cheaper quality and the clothes are meant to last for the trend not really a life time so you continue to buy more of the clothes without realizing the quality but more of the trend and american eagle has plains so you can dress them up some people just wear the tshirt thinking it is stylish for like back to school screaming the words hollister, a&f, and american eagle thinking they are dressed up and the clothes are target for teenagers trying to fit in but most kids who dont have money go to thirf stores and find the brands trying to or pretending to have money making it harder or get things passed one down from there older siblings also the target is teenagers trying to fit in and society has made it a material world so if you come a not so wealthy family the pressure is one and you have to go to thrif shops or shop clearances to fit in with the name if you go back to school people think your all dressed up with you are wearing a shirt that screams hollister or ae or a&f people get brainwashed buy it

First of all i only read the beginning but i don't think it's the same owner they just have the same ideas and copy some off of each other. i do agree people get brainwashed by it. I think it looks quite tacky when you wear all of one brand or when every body and their mom has your shirt and it's sooo obvious. That's just me.

Yea, theyre pretty much the exact same thing minus the logos, and pricing, even the website layouts are the same!
9 :
Yeah, I agree. Thanks for voting for my outfit.

You can not prove money doesn't give happiness from quotes you need statistical data.

How about one of the oldest: "It's more likely that a camel would fit through the eye of a needle than that a rich man to go to heaven."

My favorite has always been "You can't take it with you." They made a whole movie about it by the same title. I was actually in a play version of it in high school in the role of Mr. Dipina. If you don't mind old black&white flicks I highly recomend trying to find it and watch it. Jimmy Stewart and John Barrymore are in it. They also starred together in "It's a Wonderful Life" as George Bailey and Mr. Potter.

"Happiness comes from spiritual wealth, not material wealth... Happiness comes from giving, not getting. If we try hard to bring happiness to others, we cannot stop it from coming to us also. To get joy, we must give it, and to keep joy, we must scatter it." ~ John Templeton “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's need, but not every man's greed.” Mahatma Gandhi “A greedy father has thieves for children” Serbian Proverb “He who is greedy is always in want.” Horace “Avarice is always poor” Samuel Johnson "Success has nothing to do with what you gain in life or accomplish for yourself. It's what you do for others." ~ Danny Thomas "We tend to forget that happiness doesn`t come as a result of getting something we don`t have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have." Frederick Keonig “Infinitely more important than sharing one's material wealth is sharing the wealth of ourselves -- our time and energy, our passion and commitment, and, above all, our love.” William E. Simon "The more I study the wealthy.. in an effort to learn how to help more people around the world become one of them.. I’m stunned by how many people are actually not rich." David Bach "No one can earn a million dollars honestly." William Jennings Bryan "A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money." W. C. Fields "He that is of the opinion money will do everything may well be suspected of doing everything for money." Benjamin Franklin "Riches may enable us to confer favours, but to confer them with propriety and grace requires something that riches cannot give." Charles Caleb Colton "It is pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness; poverty and wealth have both failed." Kin Hubbard "The pursuit of money is in some ways a very shallow thing and it won't bring happiness unless your mind is prepared to use that money in ways that expand it and satisfy it. So, to me an interest in science and literature and the arts, is all part of just being a full human being, and of course you've got to make some money as well, but our education system it seems to me, should be producing fully rounded human beings who can say, 'I've lead a really satisfying life. I've had all the tools I need to be able to lead a great life,' rather than just, 'I made some money.' " Tim Flannery

would you know how to make cash fast?

would you know how to make cash fast?
I'm sort of in trouble. You see, I have dreams of becoming an actress, presently i live in Canada, and don't like it. I left College after a year and a half in th professional theatre program to move to New York where I got accepted to The New York Film Academy. unfortunately I couldn't make up the money, so technically im not going anymore. Chances ae I maybe moving to Florida with m sister and just go to college there and and get a Bachelor's in Fine Arts. My problem is that right now I am really broke. I would like to leave here as soon as possible (like the 15th of January) but I don't want her to end up paying all for me. So im looking to see if there are things I can do here before I leave to get some money and then move there and work full-time. Would any of you have ideas to help me?

American Eagle?(store not airline)?

American Eagle?(store not airline)?
Who agrees that AE makes more money then abercrombie and hollister because the people who cant fit into abercrombie and hollister (like myself) shop at AE so AE gets more moneyy?!?! is that why Abercrombie's clothes are so expensive??

not really... some people say oh american eagle is affordable but actually i think some of their stuff is more overpriced than abercrombie.
2 :
that's a good idea.
3 :
Absolutely agree. The abercrombie company is made up of a bunch rich ass bitches with a stick up their ass. They wanna make their stuff seem high fashion when in fact their clothes are crappy and have a repeating , never changing style and collections.
4 :
No. Abercrombies clothes are just cuter. Dont get me wrong, I shop at AE too but I have to say I like hollister and a and fs clothes a lot more
5 :
Hey, you have a point there. I did notice that American Eagle's sizes are a bit bigger than abercrombie and Hollister's. I can't fit into their cute jeans!!! Darn! Also, AE has more sales/clearances. Don't forget the All-Access Pass! People want to get more points, so, they shop more. I have one, and it really motivates me...somehow, I still like A&F and HCO more...and PINK by Victoria's Secret! I'm obsessed with it. I guess I'm just another one of those preppy girls. Oh well. Bye and I hope this helps you!
6 :
I think AE maybe does make more money than Abercrombie because more people do shop at AE. Abercrombie's cloth are really cute but not worth the price. I can actually but a genuine designer such as Ralph Lauren with the 39.99 for a polo shirt in Abercrombie. If you can afford it, great. If you think it's really just not worth it then just don't shop there. Personally , I think their high price is not a result of the lack of people shopping there rather than the people that they direct their products at. They aim their market at the affulents and the Laguna-Beach-like people.

From CEO of Abercrombie "It's almost everything. That's why we hire good-looking people in our stores. Because good-looking people attract other good-looking people, and we want to market to cool, good-looking people. We don't market to anyone other than that." As far as Jeffries is concerned, America's unattractive, overweight or otherwise undesirable teens can shop elsewhere. "In every school there are the cool and popular kids, and then there are the not-so-cool kids," he says. "Candidly, we go after the cool kids. We go after the attractive all-American kid with a great attitude and a lot of friends. A lot of people don't belong [in our clothes], and they can't belong. Are we exclusionary? Absolutely. Thats why.
