2. If so, how did you get the money
3. What is your career
thats a slippery slope. It implies that young people dont earn their own money because its not a question you would ask a 55 year old even though he might have used family money, but everyone just assumes he earned it.

In general, i assume finance is one of the popular fields of all Patek owners of all ages. Law, and medicine are probably next.

If i used my beer money for watches instead (in college), i could have had a Patek by the time i graduated no problem. I delivered pizza for a while.
