According to My Shoes, I am Quite the Leader
Just to prove that you can prove anything you want scientifically, as it turns out buying shoes is a sign of a leader. (Always buying sneakers? It’s the sign of a leader) According to the article:
So if you buy more than three pairs of sneakers a year you are 61 percent more likely to have the qualities of a modern leader. The qualities of a modern leader turn out to be pretty awesome. You get to have ideas, vision, and a style that is both inclusive and decisive. What does that even mean? Oh yeah, nothing. Honestly who comes up with these studies? This just in… candy found to be delicious.
So I wonder what it means when you buy 3 pairs of shoes at time with a frequence. I have a thing for classic Vans slip-ons, I buy tons of them. Every month or so I cruise the Van's Outlet and scoop up all the weirdest size 11's they have. (BTW If you have unique tastes and live near a Vans Outlet you can score great shoes for between $10-20 instead of the usual $45-60.) Luckily being a full time internet professional I can show up to a meeting in pink shoes with bats on them and it's ok.
Anyways, I digress… so what kind of leader do these make me?

I'm going to go ahead and say and awesome one.
If you'd like to buy me some new shoes (11's) to feed my leadershipy-ness, you can do so here.
- “Got a passion for buying sneakers? It could be a good sign, with a poll finding that people who buy three pairs of sneakers or more a year are far more likely to be a leadership type than other people.”
