@MotherFNAmericA @sglockett @HRH_SHP they put the food in a bag from the kitchen. sorry not tipping anymore. WHen I call order exactly what I want and drive to pick it up.
English

@sglockett @HRH_SHP Not true. Waitstaff are expected to take time from their tables to ready your order. They are taxed on those sales. Tip them FFS. If you don’t want to tip, eat fast food

English

@OutofGalaxyy This is pure ragebait but have fun. It's not even close unless you prefer oil paint photos.

Crazy how the iPhone 7 took a more pleasing photo than the iPhone 17
Apple has degraded.

@alt_w_v_g All private equity guys I have delt with are douches. Checks out

Went to the car dealership Saturday
Wife wants a new SUV
Salesman walked over and said "what are we looking for today?"
I said "what's your margin on the Tahoe?"
He laughed
I said "I'm not joking. What's the invoice price versus the sticker and what holdback does the dealer get from GM?"
He stopped laughing
My wife said "we're just browsing"
We were not just browsing
I brought a spreadsheet
Printed
Color coded
Blue for inputs
Black for calculations
I showed him the comparable transaction analysis I ran on every Tahoe sold within 50 miles in the last 90 days
He said "sir this is a car dealership"
I said "and these are the comps"
He went to get his manager
The manager came out
Looked at my spreadsheet
Looked at me
Said "where do you work?"
I said "private equity"
He said "that explains it"
My wife was already in the lobby pretending she didn't know me
We got the Tahoe
$4,200 below sticker
She didn't thank me
But the savings speak for themselves
You are welcome

@fw_lennox1 I call my buddy in cali from fl and the call is way clearer.

@WomanDefiner EXCEPT most cars in the auction for a reason. Also, you need a dealer license to do that.
English

You should buy used cars from auctions that the dealers buy their cars from.
It literally almost cuts the cost of vehicles in half.

JUST IN: The average cost of a new car hits record high of $50,326

@financialthing @scaling_shields Yeah and you get stuck with a POS car with issues. Great idea

@scaling_shields I bought my car from the Manheim auction. Never dealt with dealers.

got a car dealer drunk last night
what he admitted about the $4,283 "ghost fee" scam made me sick
heres what he told me:
"we add fees that dont exist. most people just pay them"
market adjustment - $1,995
"completely made up. we just say demand is high"
dealer prep fee - $495
"we dont prep anything. just a charge we invented"
advertising fee - $695
"our marketing costs. we pass them to customers because we can"
paint protection - $899
"$30 wax job. we call it ceramic coating and 10x the price"
nitrogen tire fill - $199
"air is 78% nitrogen already. pure profit"
$4,283 added after you already negotiated
i asked how they get away with it
"people negotiate for 2 hours then we send them to finance. theyre tired. they just want the car. they sign whatever"
he laughed when he said it
i asked what happens when someone pushes back
"they say remove the fees or im leaving. we remove them. not losing a 3 hour sale over charges we made up"
80% of the time they fold
but 83% of buyers never ask
i asked when dealers are most desperate
"december 31st. end of month quarter and year. quotas and bonuses. we'll take deals we'd reject any other day"
the prevention:
email 5 dealers before going:
"buying [exact car] this week. best out-the-door price including all taxes and fees. comparing offers"
locks in everything
no room for ghost fees
he knew i was going to tell people
didnt care
"wont change anything. people will still pay"
prove him wrong
the fees arent real
stop paying them
English

@scaling_shields Just bought a used car a few weeks ago. They tried to pull that on me. 1400 for "exterior paint protection*... Told them to take it off or I walk. They took it off
