So, Angelo/Jackel will now be a "purveyor" of classic European automobiles.
Sounds like an easily-eliminated middleman process which probably shouldn't (or in fact, DOESN'T) exist in modern computerized markets.
I wouldn't necessarily call all of them classics, but to each their own. And it can't be automated so it isn't an "easily eliminated" process. The dealer market for these cars are very organized, that's not what I will be doing. I have to find private sellers (of which there is no real major organized market) where even after the import tax and shipping costs we can arbitrage almost immediately. Top condition cars, your excellent, show/concours ready vehicles, their prices are pretty standard. However the normal everyday joe used car market in Europe is very different than the US because their depreciation is much much higher. Now while most of the cars are ones that nobody would really be interested in here, occasionally you can find some that are in demand. Like currently if the new import account is set up in time, the first car I have lined up is a daily driver capable, good condition, Alfa Romeo Montreal that all in they'll be able to get for roughly 20k. In the condition it is in, in the US can sell for 60k easy. Depending on what is needed to make show-worthy, they may invest into it to do that and up the price to roughly 125k. I will admit, my potential earnings makes me potentially what I would consider overpaid. There is a lot of time put into it, but it is what I consider easy work. I also have to wait anywhere from 6 weeks to 6 months from the purchase of a vehicle to get my pay though since it based off the realized profit. If I could find a deal as good as that Alfa Romeo at least once a month, I'm making over 100k/yr easy. However I seriously doubt I'll find such good ones that often. On the plus side, law changes in Sweden means a bunch of them will be getting rid of their hot rods (they are obsessed with American hotrods), so there may be something to make bringing them back here given the shrinking supply here. If I could find some Swedes getting rid of a good quality chopped 40' Mercury Coupe... I can make even more because those I could personally line up a dozen+ buyers for which ups my percentage. Though honestly digging through old archives of these papers, and archived random foreign websites/social media sites where people put up stuff for sale... a majority of the easy to sell here that I'll be finding will be the likes of the Citroën DS which depending on year/condition puts about 500-1k in my pocket each. And luckily because of Jess, I can contact about the sale without language issues since most of the better deals are being sold by French/Germans. There are a ton of already arbitragable modern road legal good condition used cars. Like Nissan 350 & 370z, Audi A5 you can get outta the UK that even after importation costs, you can sell for 10k profit easy. There is currently I have on my list a 2015 Audi A5, minor scratches on back right bumper, 10.7k miles, with importation costs, roughly $9.5k. The downside though is theirs are right-hand drive which most Americans don't want to deal with.

By the way, James Bond drove a Bentley. Will ya have any of those?
Not to be all Jackel on you, but Bond drove an Aston Martin. The Aston Martin (equipped with oil slicks to deter pursuit, shields against gunfire, passenger ejector seat, etc.) was from the movie Goldfinger.
I was referring to the original Ian Fleming novels. Excellent books. I read a half-dozen of them....

I always laugh when the most pathetic piece of human shit tries to smack talk anybody. Auto-ownage reply is, "at least I have a job and don't mooch off my old lady.... bitch." Done.... Jackel loses.

(On page 2 of my "Boo Hoo Time in Detroit" thread for anyone who wants to read how to put this urchin in his place)
You couldn't even respond to it until the next day, most likely crying on Sporty's shoulder until she tucked you in and read you a bedtime story.
After all, the truth hurts.

It does hurt, I seem to be as useless as a marzipan dildo in this economy at this location. It sucks, it hurts. But at least I'm not a piece of shit like you. I mean yeah I don't like OC, I think Garth is crazy often, and Toehold can be so dense that light bends around him. But you my nursing home living, crack smoking, racist, ableist, not-so-good sir... well are a piece of shit and bad human. And at least I'm not that. But we all have our own priorities.

Interesting hallucinations you have there. Awhile back I challenged you to provide examples of "racist rants" on my part you'd claimed you recalled. You failed. Most likely because such "rants" don't exist, on either this forum or the old one.
Nurse home living? Not even your stereotypes have any originality, nor any punch. More failure.
Ableist? Is that even a word? What's your point? Whining about your disability again? You shouldn't....it has served you well; you can always hide behind it when all your other excuses are exhausted.
Shouldn't you be cooking up your excuse for WHY your latest job-fantasy never yields a red cent? Save whatever creativity you can muster for that. Don't waste your talents on me. You have new lies you're now obligated to tell.
Down that 'ol rabbit hole again. See what happens when you just CAN'T separate truth from fiction? It can get embarrassing, no?

Anytime you refer to Obama and his wife it's come off as old man style racist. It is what it is man. We've already been down this road together.
I'm not defending "I've got a job now" Jackel, I'm just saying that yeah it comes off very Lil brain way of thinking.
I don't think you are a bad guy for it, I actually think you don't realize how bad it comes off.

^^^
As we've discussed before, my references to Obama as Mulatto-in-Chief are simply a more accurate description of our "first black president." If the liberal press can exult in that description, I can surely offer a clarification. It's simply a demonstration of my disdain for this Trojan Horse phony who preached racial unity while openly favoring black criminals' public personas as "victims" (Michael Brown and poor 'ol Trayvon) to the point of absurdity....by insinuating, in Brown's case, that constitutional violations MAY have occurred in his wholly-justified shooting.... and taking the cop's job as their only "scalp" after a thorough DOJ witch hunt!
Obama was (is) an ultra liberal socialist wolf in moderate clothing, who supported the traditional definition of marriage when it was politically necessary, then exposed his true self later. He sold a socialist abomination of a health-care takeover by the government with lies, and continues to defend it today as its inevitable collapse continues. I consider my references to this two-faced clown as MORE courteous than warranted considering his actions.
Obama's wife? Don't recall ever mentioning her, although I never saw any reason to. Just another well-educated black woman admitting she hated America while accepting its comforts, ho-hum, we have millions like her.
Love the new 'fro, though. Much better than that processed style...
If you feel this "come off as old-man style" racism, well I can't change that; you're entitled to your opinion.
No doubt you've read my sig. I'll say no more about the subject.

Iirc, you would call her negress. Real nice.
Look, you can dance around it all you want. But a spade is a spade. Accurately describe...my ass. That's as bs as Angelo having a job and you know it.
And I haven't seen your sig, I must have never turned them on.
Like I said, doesn't matter to me. But to not call that shit distasteful, unfunny and racist is a joke. You know this too, which makes it rather sad imo. You don't seem like a dimwitted person by any means.

As for this stuff about calling Queen Obama a "negress"? I have no idea for that came from.
What is this iirc stuff?
But I'm not concerned what others think. Your opinion is your opinion, nothing more. I disagree with it. Let's move on.

Gotta say, I'm loving the new aggressive Jackal. It all started when he called OC a Janitor. Now he's employed, he's full of testosterone and swagger. It's been brewing and a long time coming. He can finally say "Fuck you I'm employed"
It's hilarious.

I don't disagree with your opinion of him nor your assessment of what he brought or rather, took, from the table. Not at all. I'm not a fan of the guy nor his politics. Iirc, if I recall correctly. Thought that was universal by now. I could swear that was you but if you say it wasn't I don't have any reason to believe you would deny it if you had posted it. Moving on.

Oh, I figured out what iirc means: If I Recall Correctly.
Can't say if I recall ever calling Michelle Obama a negress or not; but I might have.
Here's the thing, though: that word is not an insult just because blacks today consider it to be one. I don't think blacks get the right to pick-and-choose which legitimate words they don't want others to say.
If I ever did refer to her as such, it was indeed to show disrespect, because as I said I have none for her. The very thought of her likely furious reaction to it makes me giggle.
And the sign above is just a series of funny ones at a local (Royal Oak, MI) gas station. It's not intended to say "I'm right and you're wrong."
After all it's just a difference of opinion. A generational one.

Can't wait for Jackel to get his first paycheque and buy some pimped-out shoes to rub it in everyone's faces!

I'm not offended by the use of the word negress, and I agree that races shouldn't necessarily be able to pick and choose when a word is racist or demeaning as it is all about context. But I think you are fooling yourself if you don't think your use of negress isn't racist. By your own admission, you are being disrespectful and derogatory towards her. That's fine, but why bring race into it? Plenty of posters (99%) hate the Obama's and are able to display this without bringing race into it every single time. That's probably why the other Obama haters (99% of the board) aren't termed racists. Your displeasure for them always brings race into it with terms like negress and mulatto-in-chief, which are used in a detogatory way. I'm not sure how it is supposed to be taken, other than as racist? That's just my opinion, and I'm not saying I am right, but maybe it will shed some light on how your posts come across to some of us on here.

Jackel is a used car purveyor now? Pretty much. I don't like it, it boring, but it work. If I can manage to put away about 35-40k in savings I can finance that out to open a hole in the wall in high-quality fast food place in Maplewood or Forest Park, maybe Soulard, and then do that for work while still doing the cars on the side.

Right on dude. I did consignment sales for a while back in 2003. Well then, it's time to get your mojo rolling, and check some of those cars off the inventory list.
