However, if you are a junk runner, you don't tag them. And they're also not depreciating if you pay nothing for them. If you have a field full of $10,000 10 year old cars, yep, you're right. But junk runners don't do that. |

but you are totally correct i title them in my name but never tag them. why would I? i probably turn more profit from that than halfwit does in everything he does in life. EDIT: most of the classics i'm buying are only gaining value, they only made so many and there are only so many left... and while typing this i got a call on the 69 camaro. i think its sold tonight. add another 1500 bucks on top of the 10 grand from a $3000 cash and 2 saturdays of work investment, PLUS i still get to keep the truck i wanted and a car hauler trailer and gave another car hauler to the kid who works for me too...

I thought I had a decent idea with an app that those with junk lots can choose to list what they have available parts wise and therefore be matched up with potential buyers. Lo and behold it had already been done. I hate seeing acres of discarded hunks of metal that just sit there for years on end.. just seemed so wasteful.

Part of the answer was inflation was sky high. Year over year income was increasing dramatically too. Basically, take all your income, your obligations, your assets, and add a zero to everything year over year, and you sort of get to the same result. Everything is the same, just "more". The people that got screwed were people that were laid off, or on fixed income, etc., or who were just sitting on cash and not deploying it. Then you get killed becuase costs/expenses are increasing dramatically, but income isn't. |

So you said this: Quote:
Which I read as suggesting that you ivnest in IMMATURE businesses and industries, which necessarily entail higher risk. For ****'s sake, that is precisely WHY you get a higher return, potentially. Because you ARE accepting higher risk. Which is fine, but it's takes alot more work, patience, effort and knowledge versus, say, putting in a fixed amount every month like clockwork into a total stock index fund, or Vanguard 500 index fund. I didn't say your approach was invalid, I simply said it's higher risk, higher reward, and higher maintenance. I can't fathom that you disagree. |

When I was young I got up to my ass in debt and I didn't like the way it felt so I said never again.. I just don't spend alot of money and I have a wife that is the same way. I live in an average size house in an average neighborhood but the cost of living is lower here than most places ... I have been blessed with health and my family has too, I feel sorry for people who lose it all to medical bills ... I never had to have the best when I bought something but I always tried to buy quality and take care of it. I was lucky to get a good job with a good company that paid well ... LTL Trucking pays good, it's hard work and long hours but it pays good but I know it's not everyones cup of tea. |

People's reactions to market fluctuations always fascinate me. Only in the market will the average person buy high and sell low.
