Question: The four main protagonists are constantly sliding into a different universe, with just the clothes on their backs, and they are usually very short of money or have money not used in that universe. So, how come they have such a varied and expensive wardrobe?

Corrected entry: Professor Arturo is recruited to be the Mayor of San Francisco. When you see the dinner scene, they are drinking beer and munching on chicken wings. He comes back to his compatriots and states he had a dinner with champagne, caviar, veal cordon bleu, and crepe suzettes. What? It does nothing to contribute to the plot. (00:11:35 - 00:13:10)
Correction: It has to do with bolstering his own ego (usually overblown). So, Arturo fibbed and he played it up by describing his own idea of an expensive dinner (imo, pitchers of beer and hot wings sound better), which he was treated to by the other men, in order to woo him into the running.
I can see that. Thanks.

Answer: They could go to an ATM and withdraw money from the account of that universe's double or, depending on how long they're stuck in whatever dimension they're in, they could do some odd jobs for some extra cash.
That's a good point. Thanks.

You're welcome.
There actually is an episode that shows Rembrandt doing that exact thing.
