I never put on a pair of shoes until I've worn them at least five years

Samuel Goldwyn, the legendary film producer and co-founder of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), was known for his eccentricities and unique quirks. One of his most famous idiosyncrasies was his refusal to wear a new pair of shoes until he had worn them for at least five years. This seemingly bizarre habit was just one of the many ways in which Goldwyn stood out from his Hollywood peers.

Goldwyn's insistence on wearing his shoes for such an extended period of time was not just a matter of personal preference; it was also a reflection of his frugality and practicality. Despite his immense wealth and success in the film industry, Goldwyn was famously thrifty and always looked for ways to save money. By wearing his shoes for five years before replacing them, he was able to get the most out of each pair and avoid unnecessary expenses.
