Nothin I want to write a book and sell it too lol im sure if it would work we all would

The one that always gets me is teh one about buying cars cheap, fixing them, driving them a bit and selling them for a profit. It always seems to be on at 3 am when im half awake typing on here.

In theory its simple on soo many levels. From the skinny prick trying to motivate you to buy...: Cars are something anyone can relate to, they more than likely have either sold one, bought one and thought they paid too much, or know someone who has done one of the above. It also strikes a chord with men because they think they know a lot about cars and could fix them easy enough. It hits people with kids because these dads can get soem bonding time with their kids while earning them both money and instilling responsibility for juniors future. One last thing he does is show these people that have dreams of owning certain cars, that they in fact can not only own them and drive them but they can then sell them for profit and get something else.

Its a great job on his behalf. cars are easily found, easily repaired, and easily sold at a markup. the problem is after you get done with buying, titleing, fixing, registering, finding a buyer, retitleing, fixing anything to ensure the sale, often teh amount of markup you get is squat

In theory, if you were an educated buyer and had teh resources, it would be slightly more than a living. realistically you will fall by the wayside if not.

I keep wanting to try that program LOL i keep the phone out of arms reach when its on. (i own 7 cars right now 6 need work and 1 im paying too much for and its a 98 lol) Oh well you live once right?
