"I'm sure you can't afford these..
" or "Those are for the super smart" or "It is going to be very difficult"..
etc.
Do you agree these can be rephrased into "Dear sir, this pair costs xyz$ amount..
" or "You need to be certified of higher learning and study skills to qualify" or "I know some people whom went through 3 years of hard training before they joined"..
