Must-Read: Summer Gear

There’s an old saying that we’ve always been skeptical about: You got to spend money to make money. The thing that gets us is that there are ways to make money that don’t necessarily include spending money. But where the saying does make sense is when we’re talking about making yourself better. You have to spend money to make yourself better.

Sometimes it’s a gym membership, sometimes it’s therapy, sometimes it’s buying a round of drinks for everyone, sometimes it’s a class. Whatever it is, occasionally you need to invest money in yourself just as you would throw in a few add-ons onto that new car of yours. The trick is knowing just what to get for yourself in order to make that change.

And so today we’re heading on over to AskMen.com where they have a list of 10 items that you certainly need to consider if you’re interested in upping your gear game this summer.
