Currently I'm a law student. Only one more year left. Woo-hoo! To make ends meet while I'm in school, I run The Art of Manliness. Doesn't make a lot of money, but it's enough to cover some costs.
If you're looking for some pointers to get started with safety razor shaving, I did a post a while back ago on my blog about it.
How To Shave Like Your Grandpa
Like others have mentioned, there's a learning curve, but once you get past the first few nicks, you're good to go.
I've been meaning to get a new pair of Chuck's. The last time I bought a pair was in 2000. They cost me about $25. When I went to the store recently, I saw they're going for $50 and even $60! What happened?! I blame it completely on smug hipsters increasing the demand for Chucks. Damn you hipsters!
