All That Glitters Is… This Man’s Shirt, Indian Businessman Flaunts Wealth With Shirt Made Out Of Gold

No. Really.

We have seen people flaunt their wealth in the past but this is honestly taking this concept to an entierly new level. This Indian Businessman had a shirt made out of gold in order to display his extreme wealth.

Pankaj Parakh left school at an early age but made his fortune from the textile industry. For his 45th birthday, he had this shirt commissioned which weighs 4kg. According to the Daily Mail, Parakh needs four bodyguards surrounding him at all times to protect him.

He said: “I never go out with less than two to three kilos of gold jewellery.”

“I have always been fascinated with gold since I was five-years-old and studying in school. And over the years that interest has become a real passion. So it was logical that I would want to make my 45th birthday a golden affair.”

“In fact even on my wedding 23 years ago a lot of people said it was embarrassing that I was wearing more gold than my bride, but I just love the Royal metal.”

We think that someone took Prince a little too literally…
