Guys that are into having many cars are also similarly likely into having many wives. But, if it flies, floats, or fucks, it's always cheaper to rent it even in the long term.

Half of all marriages end in divorce, so even if they drove beater cars they'd probably be talking about their "wife at the time"

@@dustinpomeroy8817 Man you must be the biggest sucker on the planet if you paid a cover fee to get in a junkyard! xD

He didn’t hate the car, but he’s somebody who doesn’t love cars so definitely couldn’t resist taking the profit. If Ferrari has to get people to sign an agreement to not sell their cars before they’re two years old that means the scarcity is artificial and that’s how they are creating it. All businesses make and sell as many widgets as they comfortably can, though for all goods and services in all unmanipulated markets buyers (not sellers) set prices. The buyer will offer a higher price if he perceives scarcity so that’s why Ferrari wants to make it look like there are more buyers then Ferraris…but how stupid would Ferrari be to not see to it that there are at least as many (plus more) Ferraris as buyers, duh lol. Putting it in a casino and charging cover is having his cake and eating it. And it’s more for his ego than particularly advantageous for Ferrari. I know there are people who will buy a Ferrari with a big win, and it probably does make sense to have a satellite dealership location next to the high limit room with a few new Ferraris that kind of customer might impulsively buy, because If there really was a Ferrari shortage the customer who’d be interested and could afford to gamble that big would already be in line/ready to order and give a deposit for his next one at another dealership. Ferrari shortage LMFAO yeah right there’s barely any actual automobile shortage even during a pandemic as production was halted specifically anticipating tanked demand.

Makes sense considering they probably don't want random blokes named Michael James coming in off the street to check their supercars out.

Like him being famous had no impact on her life whatsoever, until people independently found out and started asking her about it.

idk tbh. you get a position like that with steve wynn. you make the right moves. you become trusted. you get in his inner circle. before you know it he has you heading other larger opportunities. if he had said yes. waited ten years. opened his own business that he simply was the owner in. and not involved in day to day... i imagine steve wynn fully backing it. you mess around and get on boards and become a trusted associate from a position like that. your talking about a major windfall for a simple detailer.
