My depreciating shitpiles aren't even a dent in my net worth. If they would be to yours, I suspect you may not be as good at investing as you think you are.

Increases exponentially.


And yea, I do OWN all of them. I'm also intelligent enough and have resources with my business to buy things at prices that most cannot. You say "depreciating"...

Hate to burst your bubble, but the truck, camper, and Escalade are all worth more than when I bought them. The Audi, I bought because I f**king wanted it and got a good enough deal that what I lose on it over the time I'll own it is covered by the difference in gas mileage compared to driving the truck.

I also made money on my CTS-V wagons, my old Blazer, multiple motorcycles, my Firehawk (made almost $20k on that one), campers, and quite a few other "depreciating shitpiles".

Thanks for the financial advice. Carry on...

I looked into that but my Southern States guy told me it would get old and stale before I used it all. Even with both diesel tractors and my diesel truck. I put 50 hours on my main tractor last year and drove 3,400 miles in my truck.

The real savings are if you go with the red dye diesel...
