Dylan Vanas argues that suits and designer clothes don't signal real success. Mark Zuckerberg wears hoodies, some homeless people wear suits, and what actually matters is what you've learned and how you've grown.

I've made millions of dollars in the last 5 years, and this is the first time I've worn a suit. I even wore a polo shirt to my friend's wedding. So why does that matter? Well, a suit doesn't mean you're successful. In fact, I recently saw Robert Herjavec, the Shark from Shark Tank, say, beware of the man in the t-shirt, not the suit. In fact, in San Francisco, everyone knows the homeless people are the ones that literally wear suits. You'll see a homeless beggar in the middle of the street wearing a suit, when you'll see successful people, the guys worth billions of dollars, look at Mark Zuckerberg wearing a t-shirt. So you don't have to dress up to be successful. Dress to impress? I mean, okay, you can dress to respect, but just wearing a suit doesn't mean that that's a successful person. So if you're trying to level up in business, a suit is not the key. It's the person inside the suit that matters more. If you want to level up in life, it starts from the inside out, not the outside in. A suit, makeup, cars, all that stuff— none of that stuff matters. What matters is the person you're growing to become. What are you reading? What are you studying? And how are you developing yourself to become that version of yourself that you want to be?
