When I see a 50+ guy walk into a restaurant, or pull up in a Porsche wearing flip-flops and cargo shorts, I assume he must be extremely confident, secure with himself, and could not care less what others think of him.
I run in a pack of early retired guys. Every one of us dresses in cargo shorts and flip flops, so much so that my wife calls it the "Retired Guy's Uniform".
I hardly think a retired surgeon, retired nephrologist, a cashed out Clinical Laboratory owner with a Ph.D, and a retired investment banker with an MS in cytogenetics from Cambridge could be called "lazy slob".

Actually, your group sounds like lazy slobs. No, they were not lazy slobs to get where they are, but yes, they are lazy slobs now. Your MS cytogenetics investment banker dresses LIKE. A. LAZY. SLOB.
