It’s more like a HELOC for your car. They will offer to loan you a % of what your car is worth.

To me, the saddest thing is this.  If I was a foreign spy, I could figure out where US military bases are by just looking for where Titlemax and Payday loan companies are.  They flood areas where there are 18 year olds that just got out of Basic and might know how to shoot a gun, but have no idea about how to figure…

I’ve never used one of these things, but how do they work. I assume it’s basically a pawn shop for a car.

“You killed a plant which would have created 2500-”

The value is lasting peace.  Chinese investment in the US is better than an aircraft carrier when it comes to preventing armed conflict.  History is full of lessons on this.  Isolationism leads to competition that leads to conflict and ultimately war.  When you have shared interests you have less conflict.

The Roman Empire did not fall because the Goths stormed through the city gates. It fell because trade started to fail between the regions. The cheapest and best way to avoid global conflict is to have robust global trade.

*borders.  If you are going to be a xenophobe, at least learn how to spell.

Well shit, I mean what he wrote was messed up but I want MORE The Grand Tour dammit.

per capita, a voter in Wyoming or the Dakotas has ~7x the voting power of a voter in California when it comes to electing presidents, 1.5x the voting power in the house and 78.5x in the senate

“At the moment, Wyoming has all of 330 EVs registered in the entire state.”

Counterpoint:

While 1980 may be considered the absolute nadir of Jaguar quality, I can’t help but irrationally give it a NP.  

Desirable car, great photos, simple description in the ad, clean title, low mileage and amazing condition for its age. Almost too perfect. I mean NP but I’m a little suspicious that I’m going to wake up in an ice-filled bathtub without a kidney if I go see this.

Lets be very clear: this is not something anyone will buy. The “perks” included there aren’t worth anywhere near the asking price. An expensive bottle of champagne and a nice dinner coupled with a bunch of things they already own and pay for. Nope. This is about two things: (1) Publicity and (2) Giving this to someone…

This seems like a ticket package for someone who really isn’t much of an F1 fan

I bet I could rent that room, drunk that booze, get VIP tickets to the circuit, eat at those restaurants and still spend way less than a million.

Things I would expect for a million dollar ticket price:
* A few laps in an F4 car
* A few laps in an F3 car
* A few laps in an F2 car
* A few laps in an F1 car (last year’s car is fine)
* Ride along with Bernd in the safety car
* FULL pit/track pass I want to be allowed to go anywhere safe at anytime
* Wave the checkered…

OR you could be a corner worker.

Why wanna vomit? There are wealthy people. You sound so bitter...Maybe work on your Pulitzer and you can join the club. All for fun! Seriously. In England the rich are hated; in the USA, we want to be like them.

I’m still trying to figure out the part where he got scammed *many different times* and didn’t catch on. I mean, the first time was off by a factor of four! That alone should have been a red flag at least. Then they keep screwing up time after time and you keep going back? Bruh.
