An Indian man who bought one of the world's most expensive shirts made entirely of gold has been allegedly battered to death, police said. Datta Phuge shot into the global limelight in 2013 when he bought a shirt made with more than 3kg of gold and worth $250,000 (£186,943). A money lender based in western Pune, Mr Phuge was called "the gold man". Four persons have been detained for questioning. Police suspect a dispute over money led to the murder. The police said some 12 people attacked Mr Phuge, 48, in Pune on Thursday night. One of the suspects had invited Mr Phuge and his 22-year-old son to celebrate a birthday at an open ground in Dighi area when the men attacked him with stones and a sharp weapon.  |

I wear my shirt like that for dirty chores like mowing the lawn and gutting deer. When I am going out I wear something nicer, though.

Conspicuous consumption among asians always tends to be the most hilarious. They do over-the-top in such zany ways.

Dated an Indian girl for a time.
Years later I am still baffled at how the culture considers themselves to be so civilized and/or enlightened. Like are they joking or do they just deliberately ignore it as if to think nobody will notice. The country is about the most blatently intollerant of other cultures/races while still openly practicing the caste system and being one of the most polluted third world dumps on planet. You want to talk disparity of wealth? Yeah try that area of the world around India and Pakistan. Oh wait I know.... Because Ghandi... Would you rather drink the water in Mexico or India? How about go swimming in a random body of water? |
