    I think he was never off to second place at all! He was richest, in 2015 too. Anyways, if all the problem is to get the haircut, come to Pakistan. Because, barbers here can offer a "suitable" haircut in just $0.5 (Which is 50 rupees), with proper shave and mustache trimming for just extra $0.1! :-)

            I haven't paid for a haircut my whole life. My Dad did it until I got married. My wife did it until we separated. I did it myself until 2014. I just haven't bothered since (the advantages of not having to worry about what anybody thinks any more!)

            I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

                I solved that problem about 7 years ago! That's the last time I went for a haircut.

                          So to save ~$10 on a haircut, I should spend ~$1000 on airfare. Yup. Makes perfect sense. :laugh:

                              I haven't paid for a hair cut in 25 years. Every couple of weeks I get out the clippers and buzz it off.

                                      I haven't paid for a hair cut in 25 years. Every couple of weeks I get out the clippers and buzz it off.

                                      The easy way out. If mine gets much thinner I'll be looking for a razor!

                                        Over 20 years for me - I have a full head of hair, and a pony that self-regulates at about 18 inches long...

                                        It's funny how that works, seems like it gets to a certain length and that's it?

                                          I'm too lazy for that. A couple friends of mine go for the shaved-head look, and it's a lot of work. Every couple of days you have to go over it.
