I started out buying and selling cars out of peoples back yards when I was about 21. I used to just drive around and watch for cars for sale cheap or broken down. I never paid over $500 and every single car I bought I tripled my money.

I finally rented a small shop to work out of and managed to get my Used Car dealers license and proceeded to go broke..

Lesson learned.. fuck doing it legal..


I made good money selling on the side by keeping open titles, and honestly wish I had the place I could do it now. My biggest mistake was trying to do things on the up and up..

Then again, I wonder why I do things in adult on the up and up while fuckers get rich in this biz fucking everyone else. Maybe I didn't learn my lesson after all.
