An exciting day for my buddy.....Hard work pays off (Pic)

[Matlab]

So honestly What part of this having a a successful business at 29 did his parents play? Lets say graduated from school at 22 with a chemical engineering degree (very hopefully). 5 years of work experience in oil so he is 27. He has finally enough experience in the industry to offer a service that would create value.( but probably not have the competitive advantage of other companies and not create much value). Having the bussiness 2 years he is able to earn 1 million dollars. (1 million dollars is likely the amount of net disposable capital one must have to buy a 400k car, this does not include money he invested in his business)..........

More likely scenario his dad just gave him the business after he had been working at his dad's business without an education.

pics of the sloots your friend smashes from having these cars?

[MrAWatts]

Props to him for being able to afford an Aventador but that car is actually kind of a pig when it comes to handling and it's performance isn't anywhere close to that of other cupercars in that price range. (srs, look it up)

Aventadors are kinda like the stereotypical cars rich dudes buy when they know nothing about cars and just want people to look at them.

He should've bought an F12 instead. Better car, better handling, better everything and Ferrari's are timeless. The aventador is kinda douchey. srs.

LOL ******* because you clearly have a lot of experience with cars of this caliber right. Strong magazine racer.







OP what other cars does/has your friend owned? Have you made any additions to your garage to complement the Gallardo?

[lildave]

I hope he has tons of savings, otherwise that's the biggest waste of money for a 29 y/o I could possibly imagine.

If he has the mentality to make it to the point he is at now it won't matter. Worst case he sells the car at a huge loss in a few years and still walks away with $100k cash. Assuming he paid for the car with cash in the first place.
Dude is still young. Better to potentially **** up now then waiting till he is old and can't crawl back out.

[supman160]

I guess you have never heard of the oil industry in the middle east?

lol unaware. There's money wherever oil is I suppose.

[donblaximus]

im sure if you could afford it you would'nt think so.

Nice collection OP
currently have a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S and as for Motorcycles. R1
Also my 'day to day' car has been a Mercedes S500, how's the BMW tho? Been always wondering

Nice cayenne turbo is badass
When I was choosing a daily driver, I test drove the 750li and the S550 back to back
The merc is the undisputed king of sedans in that class, I really wanted to like it, but it felt like I was driving grandma' sold buick. Too "soft" for me. Once I got in the 750li I knew it was a good fit for my preferences

Reps to whoever tells me what business op's friend is doing in the oil business.

[Ace Thedics]

I'm actually disgusted to see so many jealous ***gots in here.

Good perspective man. Trust me, in the exotic car community there are a ton of douchebags....but there are also great people like you and I that just love cars.

Just got negged for not providing detail about how the guy made it.

If I had a nickel for every time someone asks "what do you do", or "how do you afford xxxxx"
My answer will not suddenly provide you with a silver bullet to make bank. I've given far more advice on this site on how to do it, but people want to be handed everything.

No one is going to give you the outline because there is no outline.

Agreed.

He's had 911 turbos, Maserati gt mc straddle, Lp640 Lambo
I have my eye on some diablos....(I'm more of an old school guy myself but don't get me wrong, I'd take an aventador in a heartbeat.

Other cars in my garage are somewhere in this thread

He owns a logistics company.

Did that help with anything?

[donblaximus]

Drilling and oilfield services

[Slurgie]

Thanks for the motivation! Repped for positive attitude.

[KillOrBKilled]

Buddy is very humble, buys super car


Seems legit

[StanisBaratheon]

The jealousy in here is hilarious

[Enty]

mirin hard. he should come to misc and post cliffs on his life and the steps he took to reach that level of success by 29

[be4st]

Lol @ the jealousy in this thread.

I'm pretty sure OP's friend has "friends" that are equally jealous of his success which is pretty sad but that's reality.

Kudos to OP for actually being a good friend, giving respect where it's due, and ultimately spreading positivity.

[tattygun]

Well done to your mate. They're stunning cars and sound unreal.

Cringing hard at those knocking his choice.

[FearNoHardship]

congrats to your friend op. maybe one day i will be there, for me i had to go back to the drawing boards and currently learning from my mistakes.
