    • Cash , I ain't got to worry for money and the cars I buy are mostly 16+ years of age and rare low production ones. So I get em cheap enough to make a profit in a few days even flipping. And cause EU

  • Dam this guy is such a great guy. Absolutely loaded with f**k you kind of cash but creates content sharing his collection for no financial gain, gives to charity and is one of the only people I know of that is super wealthy that shows what he has, explains what he spends on and why yet doesn’t come across as he’s flexing. More like trying to inspire people saying look, I came from nothing now I have all this from hard work and you can do it to! What a great guy. Hats off sir you are truly an inspiration to everyone

Videos like this inspire me I was in financial ruins due to being a cook bringing in $150 a week for a year and half I have a Kia Soul GT line which isn’t the most impressive to others but to go form horrible credit card debt to a 735 credit score no co sign and 4% apr and now in a better job position I invest by bringing joy and happiness by spending a little bit every paycheck by adding wheels, Spoiler, defuser, cold air intake, interior trim kit, and making the baddest Kia Soul GT out there. I love your channel cause it brings to joy to my life by you as a person! Thank you!

    • The key here is that he financed cars that either retained their value or increased in value. A good example is the 918 and p1. If you finance a car like masarati, astin martin, some lambos, you will be losing money on depreciation with interest rates on top.

    • That's the wrong mentality, you don't want to be working off things you already own (especially something like a car). Smart financing is using funds to generate returns higher than the interest you're charged on the loan. Case and point 0% promotional offers on credit cards being used on something to generate returns or at the very least interest, it's free money.

  • Speaking facts. So many people say dumb stuff like if you finance something then you can't afford it. Every time we open a new location we usually finance it and put our other money to use/keep it in case of the worst possible scenario. But right now with these interest rates we are loaning ourselves $3M to open up our newest location instead of paying those ridiculous rates. Its the smartest way to make and keeo money, your strategy has to be fluid with the conditions of the market
