[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to another episode of the Street Alpha Podcast.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm your host, Tux.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we are in West Palm Beach, Florida.
[SPEAKER_01]: Today we have a pleasure of sitting with Jake Snatter.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I had the pleasure of being this gentleman about a year ago at TX2K.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think we were all in the same house with Eli.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm in a maven shop to Eli.
[SPEAKER_01]: Dan and Drew.
[SPEAKER_01]: Dan Drew, I forgot Dan was there.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was actually like my first experience in like, would felt like a LA kind of content house for the most part in Texas.
[SPEAKER_01]: it was a little hectic yeah it was hectic and honestly at the time from last year to now I keep telling you you've grown like a ton on social media yeah so we'll talk about what like influenced the growth and how you were able to get from a year ago to now and you definitely see more like
[SPEAKER_01]: chill and reserved rather than last year.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like last year you were like a lot more energetic and now you just see more like calm comfortable, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I think why that is is a year ago I was very consistent.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but
[SPEAKER_02]: I had this problem of like not knowing what to film so I filmed everything okay now I'm like a lot more calm and confident with everything now because I know what I want to film and when to film it so I feel less like anxious and needing to get everything right I think that's that's probably what you're seeing okay because now it's like I'll wake up in the morning like I got this video done this video done this video done game all knocked out and
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, so like even here we're at a place that has crazy cars and yeah in my head You come in here.
[SPEAKER_01]: You probably last year.
[SPEAKER_01]: You'd probably be filming everything just because you're here, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So now you're like, I'm like, what am I going to do with this?
[SPEAKER_01]: Probably like, you know, what is where is this going to represent the content?
[SPEAKER_02]: Because everybody else has a phone, everybody else film the exact same cars, you know, so it's like, and I've also seen a lot of these cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's different.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just different.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a different world now.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, it's like,
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to say I come used to it now, but I just, I kind of know what I would like to put out there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: That comes with experience.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's still super sick to be in this room right now.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a lot of cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't film or take pictures of, but like just seeing them and seeing like the designs and all the arrow and everything is super.
[SPEAKER_01]: Multi-million dollar worth the cars.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I'm sitting right here and I'm looking at a good $30 million of cars.
[SPEAKER_01]: challenge it we might have to get a shot of that actually this is like a little quick viral shot of that um so we'll get into your backstory in terms of how you you know scat into cars started youtube um and the growth as well and then some things are that you're gonna be planning for the future as well yeah um but before we begin I always like to introduce my guests by giving them around a plus so let's give round of plus for a jake
[SPEAKER_01]: You have like a live audience, you've got a finding they can look around you right now.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's next.
[SPEAKER_01]: You next boy.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, in the early days, before you obviously started YouTube, you were from what I learned is a hard worker, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: You're working three jobs.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it was like a beam park.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's my favorite.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's my very first job on paper.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: the theme park one you see park yeah okay so what inspired you to kind of make a shift from working a job to wanting to start a YouTube channel and have you know cars involved
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, honestly, I never started because I wanted to make money.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I, first start out with Audi A6.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then it was like a C, it was a, it was, I think it's the generation of the C6 and it's 3.0 T. So it's supercharged.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And, but it was like, the, the, the mom car version of like the sporty S4.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like there wasn't a lot of parts to like modify them with and everything like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: And, um,
[SPEAKER_02]: When I picked that car up, I just tore my meniscus because I didn't track in high school.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you were a track star.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, a lot of people say I stand funny in pictures, and it's because I can't stand for a long time on this leg or else I'll start locking up.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's that bad.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not bad.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just like, it's also like an inherent thing in my head.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, because I, because I dealt with it for over two years without getting a fix.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, but yeah, I tore my mask and, um, I was in bed for a while and, um, TikTok, we'll musically turn in the TikTok.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, so there's like a trend going on.
[SPEAKER_02]: All the go.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was for a long time ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, right when it turned into the tick talk, everybody in high schools making tick talks and had groups and like they're doing dances and all that kind of stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: And there was a trend where like people would dump and dump water into a sink and like there'd be a piece paper in the sink and it'd be like, and the caption would be like, how my dad spends money on his truck or something like that, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: it progressively at worst like they poor mal water on the sink if like it was like it like maintenance and then it'd be like wheels and they poor a bunch of water in so i was like i've seen i've seen that and i thought i was funny and at the time i had like i don't know a couple hundred dollars and like pennies and they go size and quarters and never used them i was like like saving them so i did it with money instead of water and um
[SPEAKER_02]: I did it first time.
[SPEAKER_02]: I got like 600,000 views and it was like how my girlfriend spends money on stuff and then I had one I went stupid viral and it was how school spend money on sports and I like golf baseball and then I did football's last one I put like
[SPEAKER_02]: like $200 in the sink that got like over 9 million views 9 million that guy kickstart everything so at the time i still had the a6 i was working the pizza job um i went to the theme park truck a year i i hated working on the theme park bro what were you doing there i was the i was the right operator
[SPEAKER_02]: So you're the guy who like pushes the button before the people drop and they freak out or well I was the one that was doing the roller coaster so it was even worse There's like you'd have a group of like 40 people go on the roller coaster Yeah, and then you have to walk by and you're like hey, can I check your seat belt and they made us like physically like pull on the seat belts And so it'd be super awkward when the boyfriend would be on their left side and the girlfriend would be on the right side And I checked the girlfriend's seat belt is like and like they'd make a comment or a mark and I'm like
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't do that for that long, and then I worked at a moving company and delivered pieces and then Tormoniscus, and I was like, I thought I'd be a good idea to get a car then.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I took out a loan from a friend and she gave me like $2,000, and I hated borrowing money.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I worked the delivery job on a crutch.
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, and then um, Peter back within like the first two months, month and a half.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and then um, yeah, it was doing that work doing the TikTok stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: And uh, got bullied in high school because of it.
[SPEAKER_02]: you got bullied because it's a tiktok because everybody else is doing it and they only had like a thousand followers.
[SPEAKER_02]: And those two videos alone got me at like 40, 50k and I started doing like the limpsing lip sync stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like the cringy like funny ones though, not like the thirst trap ones, the funny ones.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I got boy a little bit in high school, didn't really care that much.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then, uh,
[SPEAKER_02]: Senior year rolled around and I was more worried about game my stuff done and working a lot.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I kind of dropped everything but I had a following and then I did construction for a little bit so like framing houses and doing landscaping and all that kind of stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also doing the piece of job in the moving company.
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, I was doing everything because I really want to get an Audi S4, which was like 20,000, which was 20,000 dollars instead of like 10,000 dollars in the A6.
[SPEAKER_02]: And once I picked it up,
[SPEAKER_02]: I started modifying it and I was like, dang, this is expensive.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you take two a few cars and coffees and everybody locally sees them, like sees the car.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's when my friend Parker Jones, or you knew Parker back then, too?
[SPEAKER_02]: Not back then.
[SPEAKER_02]: But like, that's when he was popping off on TikTok.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's when he was like doing it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so I saw him, I saw a few other people, and then of course, the usual YouTubers, TJ Hunt, Adam Elsey, all those guys doing YouTube.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, these guys are like making videos on their cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's pretty cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't realize that they were like making crazy money.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like animals in the integer hunt, yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: But like the TikTokers, no, because back then TikTok wasn't paying really anything.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, all right, I want to make videos on my car because I'm spending so much money on it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And only the local people have seen it and they're like kind of over it now.
[SPEAKER_02]: I want more people to see my car and like I want to show it to more people, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's how it kind of started where I grabbed my TikTok.
[SPEAKER_02]: That was all this like,
[SPEAKER_02]: cringey like funny videos and turn it in the car stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then when I did that just kind of just snowballed and still never realized I would make money from it until like maybe three years ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I've been doing this as 2019 stuff like seven years pretty much time flies and and like
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say it was a good, only three years ago when I did the Christmas lights on my yellow and four.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was the year after the year before, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Not the YouTube video, the TikTok, because I posted that before the YouTube video.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what you have a video on it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I had a YouTube video on it too, but Alex Troy wrapped his 720, the year before, and then it was like 13 days before Christmas, and nobody was really doing it that next year, and Alex Troy weighed into the day off to post his video.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so nobody else is doing it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, man, that was super cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I did it and it got like over 16 million views and I made $8,000 on TikTok.
[SPEAKER_01]: 8k.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: From that one for a minute though?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was over a minute.
[SPEAKER_01]: Was that the requirements back then still or no?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so at that point, yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was like, they were paying for anything.
[SPEAKER_02]: Anything?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that was when TikTok paid really good.
[SPEAKER_02]: So TikTok kind of was like a bell curve.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like when no pay, they paid you a little bit and then it was like crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And now they don't really pay like crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: How much does it be?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that opened my eyes to like,
[SPEAKER_02]: This is my passion.
[SPEAKER_02]: I love doing this.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I've been doing it consistently.
[SPEAKER_02]: I could like have this be a career too.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've always been I've always been taught and you always see in videos and in other people's YouTube videos podcast all that stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: Everybody always says do a job that you love and you'll never work a day in your life.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that was like my like aha moment and I was like, okay,
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to do this consistently every single day, never miss a day, and also work really hard at my job.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That way, I have enough money to fuel these videos, because I wasn't making a ton from videos aside from that one, and maybe one day I can get out, and I don't want to do this.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's how this kind of came to be.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like that quote, don't only love your job, but job your love.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I've heard that one before you see that video I was a podcast of the girl was trying to be like motivational.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, she was like don't only love your job But job you love and I was like it won't viral because it was like this.
[SPEAKER_01]: I personally say if I didn't see the actual Yeah, so not everybody starts making means about it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's pretty it's pretty funny But you said the job thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, that's pretty interesting.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so at what point so you got to taste some money Of course, $8,000 is kind of like what motivated you to kind of take it serious, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I was doing it seriously just because it was fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm very competitive.
[SPEAKER_02]: I did track in high school and in college.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've always had this competitive mindset.
[SPEAKER_02]: So for me, it was like,
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, this person I'm following got this many views.
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to try make a better video than them, you know, or do this better, or do this trend better, or be like the most viewed sounds.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: That was always been my mentality.
[SPEAKER_01]: Sounds to you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was like, I'm going to do this and just have fun with it.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then that just making the money just kind of open my eyes to like,
[SPEAKER_02]: This is it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I know what to do with my life now.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is the job I want right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, so when you were working you were a server as well, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So you mentioned in one of your videos that that was probably one of the highest paying jobs you've had.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so the first so when I picked up that job.
[SPEAKER_02]: I kind of moved away from the landscaping and my dad at the time was a piano player on cruise ships.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he made decent money but it wasn't like anything crazy and he wanted to not do that anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he opened up a piano bar.
[SPEAKER_02]: And because he loves playing piano and then he thought oh I'm just gonna like hire like People I know because like they'll be cheaper the higher right so one of them was me and legally and where I'm from you can serve like Certain drinks like but closed so like I was sort of like canned alcohol beverages But I can't open them and I like sent down for people so I started like getting it like serving really early on and
[SPEAKER_02]: that built on my resume.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I took that and his business eventually went down the drain, like in the cell.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I just didn't pick up a lot of money.
[SPEAKER_02]: He got like a pretty
[SPEAKER_02]: inexpensive location and because of that it didn't get a lot of traffic.
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it's not a whole.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm having to get rid of it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I used that resume stuff to then get to other serving places and then I worked at this restaurant called the Floating Green Restaurant and it's on a golf course on a resort.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like money.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and that didn't really pay crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was still doing delivering pizzas and the moving company.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I had a friend
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm worth it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm bartending at this high-end restaurant that's connected to the resort.
[SPEAKER_02]: I could probably get you in.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was like, all right.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got in, instantly quit my dad's job.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was like, I'm not making anything.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, there would be some nights where we made probably like 10 bucks and tips.
[SPEAKER_01]: $10 in tips.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it was it wasn't great.
[SPEAKER_02]: It wasn't great.
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it was quit the first day after that I know, but I put in my mind.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like building the resume if I'm here for over a year.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but you were taking long for it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, right.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I instantly quit.
[SPEAKER_02]: He wasn't happy about that, but
[SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, I quit, I did that and I was a breader host and like a dishwasher in the bar area.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I moved up really quick.
[SPEAKER_02]: because I made friends with the manager and the manager is about to dip, she's about to quit.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was super nice to her and like always picked up shifts and all this.
[SPEAKER_02]: And she's like, you know, I'm gonna move this J kid up because I like him.
[SPEAKER_02]: So she moved me up to like, serve her right before she left.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I made 60K my first year.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was working every day.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like Monday through Sunday.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So a way I got her, they didn't let me hit overtime.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I did was I wouldn't clock in until my first table got sat.
[SPEAKER_02]: and then I would clock in because the money was in the tips it wasn't in the hourly because we only got paid 325 an hour.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's legal over there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so legally and Idaho.
[SPEAKER_02]: 325.
[SPEAKER_02]: The minimum wage is 725, but legally if you're a tip, if you're a tip employee, if you're claimed tips plus your 325 hourly averages out to over 725 an hour, they can do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: So technically they could
[SPEAKER_01]: That's crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, okay, but in that spot, you were making pretty well off-tip because of where you were.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the first year of making a 60K by what?
[SPEAKER_02]: I wasn't in like a really good like section.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was serving in the bar.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then the next year, I made $98,000 on paper.
[SPEAKER_01]: on paper, but then I got cash chips to which like another 20 to long paper, that means deposits and so on and then obviously whatever cash you have.
[SPEAKER_02]: There was one night, uh, I was serving and a guy was with his future wife.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was like the day before their wedding.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they were like, um, they ordered a few things.
[SPEAKER_02]: Their tab was like 100 bucks, 150 bucks.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the guy asked me said, what's the biggest tip you ever got?
[SPEAKER_02]: And I said, 500 bucks.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because at the time, I'd served boardrooms, like 30 people.
[SPEAKER_02]: So 500 bucks and make sense right and after you tip out her, but you leave like 300 Yeah, so I said 500 bucks and he's like Let's double that tonight So he's like, but what's your Venmo?
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not gonna put on paper and I was like, okay, and I gave my Venmo He sent me a thousand dollars right there.
[SPEAKER_02]: What that was a kind of place I worked at so that was still like to this day Your largest tip or you had more yeah, that not on a left with two thousand dollars
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: There's money.
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're in the right location.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're in the right location Yeah, like you wouldn't be doing that at Denny.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's just there's just levels and like I Learned that really quick.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's levels to business and jobs.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and I worked my way up
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, did you find any of the like what you learned from like the relationships and networking and like working hard, that kind of like helped you move into like the content space?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like how does that apply in the content space for you from what you learned working, how to sense the server?
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I was, I think everybody should do a customer service job, whether it be serving or working front desk somewhere or anything like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's very important because before that, I was super quiet.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, like you shy or yeah shy quiet didn't know what to say or how to say it to people So I just like kind of cuts myself But serving like push me out of that like comfort zone.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, and maybe who I am today So I feel like that's like the biggest thing like if you put me in a group of like five other people I also make videos Yeah, like
[SPEAKER_02]: I can if they say something to me like I won't force myself into the conversation, but they say something to me I can instantly like drum conversation with them ask them how they are asking what they do and that kind of thing So I think that's important too because whatever you do honestly you have to be able to communicate You can't communicate.
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean some people are really talented where they don't have to but I feel like in today's an age like you kind of
[SPEAKER_01]: You kind of have to be able to communicate because a lot of people on their phones, like people don't even know how to speak to people because the phones are actually taking away attention from actually communicating people.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: But the people like Excel, I feel like other people who know how to communicate and put themselves in situations where they can network and work their way up.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: So now with the TikTok stuff, how did you get out of serving to continue to do content?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you were making $98,000 on paper.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a lot of money.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you still want an out of serving?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, that's how I know.
[SPEAKER_02]: The next year I made 50 or 60,000, but it dropped because I was making more money on social media.
[SPEAKER_02]: So back then, I think the longest street I had was 32 days in a row at that serving job.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the next year, and this was the year after that video went viral on
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's try this video.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see if these videos will do better.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I started learning what did good and like how to make a good video and what modifications were interesting and stuff like that and I started getting into brand deals and learning how to do that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, it became, I told myself I would never quit my job until I felt like I was wasting my time being there and I could have made more money making videos.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was, I would make like $300 at the serving job and then that day on TikTok it would say $220.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not ready to quit yet.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then once I, and then sometimes I make more, but I would, I didn't quit until I was making more than serving.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also I had a bet with a friend at the time.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I told him I said, one day, I'll be still serving here and I'll have a Lambo.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he said, no, you won't, you'll quit way before them because that same thought process, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like making my social media why not quit?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so I was like, no, I'll stay here until I have a limbo.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so right after I bought my hurricane,
[SPEAKER_02]: He I sent him a photo.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like I'm still employed here and I showed him the picture of the car and he was like super hyped about it That time he didn't work there anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but I want to keep my word and so right after I drove home the next I think the next week
[SPEAKER_02]: because I didn't want to like quit on them last minute because they had shifts out schedule before.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the week after I put in my two weeks and found people covered my shifts and I was done and I drove there in my lambo.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, also it's like that job that I was in was like career job.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like a hundred thousand dollars is not nothing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, it's a career job for a lot of the people
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't want to look like I was like flexing on them or anything by having a Lambo and pulling up to work.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I felt like I needed to quit.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like if I was there, just wouldn't make sense.
[SPEAKER_01]: How old are you when you quit?
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, the 42, 23.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, 20 or 20 years old with the Lamborghini yep so that probably is I think that's one of your most like Viewed videos on YouTube right long form is how you have all your cars at yeah buying the buying the her account was one of my most Viewed videos
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so which is crazy at your age.
[SPEAKER_01]: You think that the age is more, because how I look at YouTube is when people get like R8s or if they get like exotics, the content isn't really relatable anymore.
[SPEAKER_01]: But for use, it's your 23 years old and you have one.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, okay, this is interesting.
[SPEAKER_01]: This kid's got money probably, or he's got something going on.
[SPEAKER_01]: It kind of makes me wanna watch.
[SPEAKER_01]: Bye, go buy a Lambo, honestly.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think people are going to care because I'm older, like I'm 35 and I'm saying you think that was like a biggest influence That younger.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that should be younger.
[SPEAKER_01]: What did you use?
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, I'm far as getting a Lambo.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean look at like uh, I feel like everybody says his name, but look at Matt Armstrong like true.
[SPEAKER_02]: He started YouTube He was 30
[SPEAKER_02]: Then he started with the Audi, he started doing YouTube stuff and he was 30 and everybody loves him.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, everybody grow.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think what is it's your story and it's how long you've been doing it before hand.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And what your content is beforehand, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like you do podcast stuff and all this.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's personal brand, but not the same way.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not personal brand.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like with me,
[SPEAKER_02]: Everybody's been a lot of people I've been here from the beginning like today like last Like the last event been my invasion two days ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, everybody came out soon Like I've been watching sister Audi so it's like they've been here for three years and then I got the Lambo You know, so I feel like that's the big thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not necessarily age.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's how long you've been doing it How consistent and what your brand is, you know
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so now what are some things that you can recommend for people who are just starting out with content, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, this is what you're doing is kind of like a dream for most people.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep, everybody wants to be the next TJ Hunt Adam LZ and soon the next Jake Snyder, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So what do you think that people can take away from what you're saying?
[SPEAKER_01]: And also advice tech be for them to kind of start content like what do you think is the biggest factor to growth in social media?
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, generic one consistency like everybody says that and there's truth though.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's true, but it's very it's very like oh, that's that's it Yeah, um, but always wanting to one up yourself every day.
[SPEAKER_02]: You don't want to make the same video like if you're getting if your video is getting 500 views.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
[SPEAKER_02]: and the next one is 500, and the next one is 400, and they never do better.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're doing something wrong.
[SPEAKER_02]: Try and fix the lighting, fix how you're talking.
[SPEAKER_02]: Be more confident, show your face.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do stuff that's going to one up the next video.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, that's another thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also don't rely on people a lot of people say, oh, because I live in a middle nowhere, bro Yeah, there's not many people over there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, let me end up grab me in Devon.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, but don't rely on other people So don't think that the only way to make a video is to collab with somebody.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not how it works So a lot of people like why don't you move to L.A. or Miami?
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like
[SPEAKER_02]: If I move the L.A. or my amy, that doesn't do anything for me.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you can't make a good video on your own, you shouldn't be making videos.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's my opinion.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's facts, it's making facts.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because it's like, if you can't, because that's the thing too is, what if all those people leave?
[SPEAKER_02]: Now you're done.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't make sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: So in my opinion, if you're gonna start out, start out on your own.
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't try and do it with other people and hope that they bring you up.
[SPEAKER_02]: You should just bring yourself up on your own.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that's honestly solid.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think those two that you just said is probably like the most important Obviously once you start you know doing content.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, like I guess more technical I hung out with Keller this weekend, you know, we made videos and it was fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but I could still make a video without Keller in it Right now, that's the difference between a lot of other people
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, you mentioned brand deals before and me being a podcast and so on.
[SPEAKER_01]: We spoke about this before and you asked me before, like, are you going to do like a mineral ad or whatever and I was like, not doing like I used to do that obviously.
[SPEAKER_01]: So my, I think my biggest issue right now is the fact that I don't really focus on my personal brand.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you have a big personal brand and that's why you're able to get all this stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: For some reason companies, not for some reason, but companies would rather associate themselves with somebody like who has a personal brand because
[SPEAKER_01]: They're probably more likely to buy a t-shirt over just like a podcast that has guest on because most people are watching for you.
[SPEAKER_01]: They obviously watch this a good podcast and the questions is so on, but they're not really here for me all the time.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're here for the guest a lot of the time, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's kind of hard for a company to be like, hey, like, we'll give you, you know, X amount of dollars to promote this as much as somebody who's personal brand.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what are some things that you or some advice that you can give for people who want to
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, so the first thing is you got to have a way for the brands to contact you.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's like the big thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like you can't expect to get brand deals all the time.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you don't have your email in your bio or you don't have some way for them to contact you or you're not looking at your DMs all the time.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's like a big thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, also like email outreach.
[SPEAKER_02]: Learn how to send a good professional email to companies.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And show them like you can't just hit up a company by hey.
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to promote your brand, pay me $5,000.
[SPEAKER_02]: You can't say that.
[SPEAKER_02]: You got to be like, hey, I think you being in my video would work really well.
[SPEAKER_02]: My videos do this much, this, this many views.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is my demographic.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think my audience would appreciate your stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: That kind of thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what lands brand deals.
[SPEAKER_02]: Outreach is a big thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't really do a lot of outreach,
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'll reach with like car parts.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but and that's super easy to land because I make videos on cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you know, um, but right now like if I get a brand deal, it's usually them emailing me just because I haven't had a lot of time recently to outreach to other companies.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, um, I saw this video on TikTok and it was about a guy exposing Shakespeare chatter.
[SPEAKER_01]: and he was feeling about how you make your money, how you're buying these cars.
[SPEAKER_01]: There were some comments about like you and you're upbringing and you're dad having money and so and that's what you said the story obviously was.
[SPEAKER_01]: But was there any you know a way shape or form that your your father was influenced in terms of like money and helping you push early on?
[SPEAKER_01]: So, sorry for like serving and him having a restaurant, but
[SPEAKER_01]: That'd be the only thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like obviously, no, obviously every parent gets their kid a first car.
[SPEAKER_02]: My first car was a Honda, I said not it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was $1,200.
[SPEAKER_02]: And he didn't just give it to me.
[SPEAKER_02]: I had them, like, I mode lawns for like the whole, I did like took care of the yard for a whole year.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, and then I got a $1,200 me on Namiya.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how much paid for my first guy, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: I bet I had up my mom.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so like, but every parent does that.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the other thing he did for me is he let me live with him when I was in high school, which is another thing every parent does.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: There was no like monetary help.
[SPEAKER_02]: No.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Aside from like hiring me for that restaurant, which built my resume.
[SPEAKER_02]: But that was it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you watch any of these videos on TikTok?
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you're looking at stuff all the time.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what are your feelings when you see these videos?
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you laugh at them or does anything like got you upset at all?
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, in the beginning, sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: I would be like a little like hurt because you always think that, like, I don't, I was talking my wife about this.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't make a lot of like controversial videos.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'll throw like some stuff in my canteries when cameras went chill.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But like, uh, I don't make a lot of controversial stuff that
[SPEAKER_02]: provoked hate you know okay so when people hate on me at the beginning I was like oh I don't make anything like mean or rude like why are you being mean to me yeah you know that kind of hurt a little bit but now it's like
[SPEAKER_02]: it just comes to the territory.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't really care.
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you, but what's the, like, what in your head kind of got you over that?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I do what the same thing on.
[SPEAKER_01]: I get a lot of hate for this podcast because of some of the questions I ask.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But I don't, like, most people aren't gonna ask this question.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I ask them, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: And those basic questions are what go the most viral, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So how do you, in your head, say, you know what?
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me just turn this off.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not even gonna worry about it, like, let me just push through it and I think about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, either y'all turn off my phone, or I don't know if I think Parker mentioned this in your podcast, but There's all my podcasts.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was the other podcast.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was their podcast.
[SPEAKER_02]: He mentioned he mentioned we have a like we all have group chats Yeah, so like if people are hating on us, we'll send it and be like look at this like look at this dude like you know like like then we'll just say a bunch of stuff and then it's like over
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so that's kind of like venting.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like, venting a little bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're making fun of this.
[SPEAKER_02]: This is funny.
[SPEAKER_02]: They think they think I'm like, really it.
[SPEAKER_02]: They think my dad's Papa John or something like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like that kind of stuff just funny.
[SPEAKER_02]: So we'll joke about it and then it's over.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you understand, obviously, you're in the content space.
[SPEAKER_01]: And obviously, it's time, you know, goes on, you're going to grow more and your mindset kind of changes.
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's probably more mature than when the first time you saw something.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So now, of course, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So now, are you posting your content across all platforms?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, that's another thing too, like going back to your one question of how to start.
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't start on one, because you're just going to like limit yourself.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, one of those platforms could be gone like that.
[SPEAKER_00]: True.
[SPEAKER_02]: So you can't allow yourself to be tied to one platform or else everything just could go away for you.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you're done.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you have to go find another drop again.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I've always focused on posting everywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: If Facebook too, I have a, I think, almost 500,000 on Facebook.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wow.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So honestly, I, I didn't have a Facebook until the first year of the podcast because I, like, I always thought Facebook was outdated.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I started realizing that people were actually making money on there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I was like, all right, let me just start posting.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but now I get paid on all of them, but YouTube is obviously my main one.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: What's your, what's your main source of income as far as all the platforms?
[SPEAKER_02]: used to be tiktok and then changed ownership and then they started and they also were pushing tiktok shop and true you don't do that right no okay I did for a second but it didn't really do much so used to be tiktok then RPM went down and now it's YouTube.
[SPEAKER_01]: So YouTube is your main is it from mostly from long form or combination of shorts and long form.
[SPEAKER_01]: Larger long for first and was it always like that because obviously like it takes a while for long form content to actually pick up and views and it's actually I think it's the hardest type of content to make it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It is ours type um yeah it was an instant it took a while um but yeah I'd say YouTube is my main source of income and also the brand deals are a lot easier to land and they
[SPEAKER_02]: pay a lot better because someone that watches a YouTube video has a lot more up here as terms of like being able to watch a video all the way through.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they're able to understand what you're promoting too.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're like, oh, I actually make sense for me to get.
[SPEAKER_02]: So brand deals understand that and they'll like pay you more for a YouTube ad versus a 60 second
[SPEAKER_00]: True.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so let's switch gears a little bit and talk about some car stuff.
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously we'll get back to some six o'clock content and money stuff later But you had the S4 that was pretty much your first content car, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So there was some video that you posted about maintenance on it Right and and honestly outies are pretty expensive.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, of course I'm not sure if that lasted throughout the whole time of the journey of the car, but What has been your experience with an Audi since you've had since you've all run the past?
[SPEAKER_02]: Audi's are great cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're great cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: The they're amazing daily drivers for sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the mine.
[SPEAKER_02]: But everybody always asked me again another one and there's no Audi.
[SPEAKER_02]: I can confidently say I would want right now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like with with with BMW's like porches like all these other cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: The driving experience with those is way more sporty, way more fun, and they look better.
[SPEAKER_02]: I would never be able to pick an Audi, and be like, that's my one car.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're designed as little soft, I guess.
[SPEAKER_02]: But they're great cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't get me wrong.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're fast.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're honestly reliable.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe some of the lower tier models aren't, but when you start getting it's like the S's and RS's, and you take care of them, change the oil, do the spark plugs, don't treat them like a camera, you're fine.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's no Audi I can confidently say I'd want.
[SPEAKER_02]: Aside from my old one, like if I got another B8 and a half S4, because I think that's one of the best looking ones for its time.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Or... Or an RS7.
[SPEAKER_02]: What about RS6?
[SPEAKER_02]: RS6 is too real cool, but it wouldn't be like the one car.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I don't think Audi makes a car that takes every box like F82M4.
[SPEAKER_01]: any of them.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what what box is does that card check?
[SPEAKER_02]: That's 82.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, um, it looks sick.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's easy to mod.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, easy to work on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, they're comfortable.
[SPEAKER_02]: They, uh, they're sound as little iffy, but if you get the right exhaust up, they're good.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think tough one.
[SPEAKER_01]: That sound is kind of is kind of.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you use single mid pipe and cows down pipes, yeah, they sound good.
[SPEAKER_02]: it sounds better than obviously stock yeah but those cars are really I think that's probably arguably probably one of the worst sounds yeah they are they are and they also just they they feel really good when you're driving them um they're just all around just
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess I could I get so okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of hard to compare that to like a like a R8, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, when you're when you're talking about the price point, there's also a point where like okay and R8's sick But that's a hundred and fifty thousand dollar car right right and F82 like I picked that car for 20k cheap.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, but the thing is like if you're saying that there's no Audi obviously the R8 was probably like the
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I'm saying, but is that the closest thing that you can compare to at F80?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because let's take price out of it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like if you had an RE and you had an F80, you still take the F80 over the RE.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, but that's like that's a way different price for a hundred percent, but but then you said out of you overall I'm thinking yeah, yeah, yeah, obviously prices isn't a factor here when I'm asking you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, I would I'll take the right then Okay, so that says a lot about the BMW because anything below the already It's too is nicer then what outie how do he's I nicer?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, be in that way community.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like to be in a W community a lot more
[SPEAKER_01]: really.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, honestly, we're here for obviously be more invasion.
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was great.
[SPEAKER_01]: The energy is great.
[SPEAKER_01]: But from my understanding, like BMW community was always like toxic.
[SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, when I was at the event, like everybody, everybody's like dapping up everybody, everybody likes, everybody else's cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, there's, I saw maybe a hundred, two hundred like edits while during this trip of like people just filming everybody's cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the BMW community is one of the
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's changed over the years.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think it was like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, it wasn't like that, but because before maybe five years ago it was mainly doctors, lawyers, and kind of people that were older and just kind of stuck in their ways, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: But now I think it's, and also a lot of people that are younger are able to afford these cars so they depreciate so much.
[SPEAKER_01]: True.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, that is right, true.
[SPEAKER_02]: And when you get a car like this, you then realize how special they are and you take care of them more and you kind of mature a little bit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you think that the F80 is the best BMW for you?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like obviously there's tons of BMWs, we can go on a list of them.
[SPEAKER_01]: But for you and what you plan on purchasing in the future, like do you feel like this is like the best one you think you'll have?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, and this is the one I'll never get rid of.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I have a G82 as well, but it's still, is it, you restarted or no?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I fixed it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I bought a crash and I rebuilt it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, but I have the G A 22 and it's, it doesn't feel like that card is.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, the G A 22 is fast.
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't get me wrong.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the way handles the way it feels just feels heavy.
[SPEAKER_02]: This far is just, it's everything.
[SPEAKER_01]: Does it feel like kind of numb with a G80?
[SPEAKER_01]: So the older BMWs, I feel like you're more connected to the car, like E92.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: You feel like more connected to the car as they get, like obviously later in the years, it gives like more and more numb, like you don't feel connected.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's so much like super comfortable, like kind of big, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's how I feel the G2 is to F-A2.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think this is the best generation.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I have not owned an E92 yet, and I'm about to, so.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you're going to buy an E92.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's like the next part of you announced that earlier.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I haven't found one, but that's like the next one on the vision board.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got the vision board of gold cars, and that's like the next car really won.
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to get E92 as a manual with a carbon roof, and I would like it to be that Melbourne red.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, so kind of like Nick's car, sort of, not the same color, but like, yeah, similar, similar.
[SPEAKER_01]: Similar, I want to put on TEs and that kind of stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I drove my buddy Norse.
[SPEAKER_02]: He owns Nadiado parts.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he did an E91.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he converted.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, wow.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: He converted, like, I think it's E92 engine and through it in there.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I drove that manual.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like it.
[SPEAKER_01]: The sound shifts are fun.
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you think between those two, what do you think drives better between the two?
[SPEAKER_01]: What did you have more fun in between the E92 and the F80?
[SPEAKER_02]: I would still say the F80 still.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because the F80 has what the E-92 doesn't and that's speed, faster, faster.
[SPEAKER_01]: But it does sound better.
[SPEAKER_02]: It does.
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if it's sound better in this car though.
[SPEAKER_01]: What?
[SPEAKER_02]: Because I have the foreend motor in this car now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I don't.
[SPEAKER_01]: I got to hear it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: That uh the E-92 sounds.
[SPEAKER_02]: The E-92 sounds sick, but the foreend motor sounds nuts.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is, it is, it is, that's how I'm good though.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how I'm good.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's interesting.
[SPEAKER_01]: So now you got the Lambo.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: But what was the plan with that?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, what were you initially intending to do?
[SPEAKER_01]: Was it just a flex or was it like you plan to build it?
[SPEAKER_01]: You'll twin terrible with it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've always wanted one.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I've never got any of my cars to flex.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I always view like there's some people may content to flex.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not me.
[SPEAKER_02]: I, I may content as if
[SPEAKER_02]: someone watching my videos would do the same thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, like everybody puts a front lip on their car, everybody puts a wing on their car.
[SPEAKER_02]: So what I do is what I feel like the normal person would do if they were in the same position as I am with the cars that I have.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't go stupid over the top unless, like, that's what everybody wants to see, and that's what I want to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: But at the end of the day, I just really love the hurricane.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I wanted to build one.
[SPEAKER_02]: So,
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that a content strategy though, or are you doing it just because some people, if you make, if you build a car, for example, let's say like a hellcat, right, or a challenger, the V6 one like boosted lucky, he blew up because he had a car that was super relatable and he did some stuff with it and then obviously burnt down and whatever and then he got a hellcat.
[SPEAKER_01]: So are you using that same kind of like mentality of you want to build cars that are relatable to people because it'll attract more viewers or it's just like a only personal thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like people watched me because I make videos on stuff that I'm passionate about.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: The minute I buy a car that only they want to see, but I'm not passionate about, is the minute I think I'll start falling off.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because people can tell in videos when you're not passionate about what you're doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And if I bought a C63, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: I wouldn't be passionate about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: They sound amazing, they're cool cars, but that's not a car I've ever said to myself, I really want.
[SPEAKER_02]: So if I got that car and modified it and everything, I just, I wouldn't like it.
[SPEAKER_02]: So then people would tell, even though they, people love the car, the people at Washveo love the car, they're noticed that I, and not into it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's, that's kind of like, not something I'm down to do.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that's all you just to stay in true to whatever your vision board is and kind of, and people work.
[SPEAKER_02]: And what I'm passionate about, like there's, there's enough cool cars to go around, and I have a big passion for what I like to do, and so I'll always get the cars that I enjoy.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the Lambo was one of your dreamcars, of course, you attained it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and then unfortunately, you crash the Lambo.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: And that was like big news for everybody.
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody was talking about it before it even posted it.
[SPEAKER_02]: People were like, it was big in Germany.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like my, my one sponsor that like is awesome, uh, grail.
[SPEAKER_02]: They instantly called me like 20 minutes after it happened.
[SPEAKER_02]: He was like, Jake, are you okay?
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm like, yeah, everybody's okay, everybody's fine.
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're like, yeah, it's in the news and Germany.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm like, huh?
[SPEAKER_02]: It was kind of crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was like everywhere.
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, I know people, that's your dream car, but you're probably in a position now to wear like money isn't the biggest factor with that.
[SPEAKER_01]: But since it was your dream car, you're probably, we'll kind of hurt by that.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not sure if that's how you felt.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, like, I was definitely hurt a little bit by that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it definitely, I get socks.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's, it's a, it was the, probably one of the biggest turning points in my life in terms of like getting that car.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Was it your first accident?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, damn, in the Lambo.
[SPEAKER_01]: First accident.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the good thing is that you guys are okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the most important part.
[SPEAKER_02]: And there's always, like, I probably would never get one again, just because I finished it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, honestly, I'm genuinely being serious.
[SPEAKER_02]: I've all, like, a week before then, I was like, thinking, I really want an event to do or like, what else is there to do with this car?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like genuinely, like I wasn't thinking to like getting rid of it that then back then, but I was like, what else should I do this car is or is like this chapter kind of the over, you know, but I feel like I did everything I could to that car and the damage on that car was very, was very, very severe.
[SPEAKER_02]: So those cars have, I like to say, I don't know if it's a technical term, but I like to say that it has a hybrid like chassis because it has a carbon tub.
[SPEAKER_02]: but not a full carbon tub like a 720.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like carbon and then it merges in like aluminum.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the car has like the standoff frames in the back to hold the engine.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, right.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so those frames bolt to the carbon tub and where the tree hit was perfectly right where everything connects.
[SPEAKER_02]: So when it hit the frame, it pulled the the carbon tub apart.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like there's a big crack from the aluminum portion of you know like like the aluminum portion of stayed bolted in okay there's like a big crack by the passenger door okay and the quarter panel yeah and it's because the tree hit there and like pulled it back so like that car needs like too much too way too much way too much I'm sure I could buy that and fix it enough
[SPEAKER_02]: I actually said to I said to photos and I was cause I would rather me fix it than him to write and I think he would he feels the same way yeah I said to him he's like bro like that car's like toast all because every single panels destroyed yeah every single panels destroyed the car becomes destroyed if you're rebuilding that car you're not rebuilding it you're just building a car from scratch yeah you know like the poor she rebuilt
[SPEAKER_02]: That's towing the line of mine.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's Porsche.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, about how strong is the 3 RS that went in the water?
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I thought it was Adam Lz's Porsche towing that.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no, that one was pretty bad, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But, um, mine, you'd literally just be putting a motor into a different car.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: At that point.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, I don't know how to present it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not, it's not worth it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, with that car, I didn't ask you this before, but was that, like, did you pay for that car cash or what was the deal with it?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, so I like buying all my cars and cash.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: But the Hurcon, kind of like what a Strangendale has got, Conex Egg, the Hurcon, you can do a leasing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you can do leasing.
[SPEAKER_02]: So with that, you still put equity into the car.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: But you get the right off every single payment because it's for the business.
[SPEAKER_01]: Full payment or half?
[SPEAKER_02]: full.
[SPEAKER_02]: Nice.
[SPEAKER_02]: So we've right off payment insurance, all that.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's why I did.
[SPEAKER_02]: I just thought that was the best financial move for me to be able to write off the car fully.
[SPEAKER_02]: I can write off my cars to an extent, but it's way easier to write off the her account that way because
[SPEAKER_02]: It's the least, just the IRS understands it better.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: What we do is still almost like new territory for the IRS, even to this day, even though it's been around for like 10, 12 years.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they still don't understand.
[SPEAKER_02]: They still don't understand.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure they will eventually, but for now, it made more sense for the supercar to do with that way.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's why I did it with the F12, too.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what were the payments on something like that, like a Lambo?
[SPEAKER_01]: How much is a car?
[SPEAKER_02]: So the car was $196,000 and I put down 40, but within that 40, it was the first payment last payment the lease start up fee and we got other fees associated and stuff like that all that sales tax start up all that kind of stuff so at the end of it, it was only probably like 20k and equity.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but yeah, 20 25 maybe 30.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so it it wasn't that hard to do as far as what get in the car.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, to get get approved for it.
[SPEAKER_02]: They even like also is super easy to get approved for a car like that with just a bank statements.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like proof that you get enough money coming in versus money coming out.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that's like an entrepreneur kind of alone.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, they were like, as long as you have at least six months payments in your bank account and you have more coming in than what the least payment is, you're going to get approved.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, okay, and if you have a good credit score at the time, I had a 750 now I have over 800, but it was like super easy.
[SPEAKER_01]: So as long as you got all your stuff in order, you can definitely go out there if you're making money, of course.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you can able to show that you're making money into your account then you can now there are some sketchy leasing companies that like Will tow the line because they don't care because at the end of the day can just repo the car.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, a lot of people at like get a taste of money and everything they'll get an SVJ and then two months later it gets repo because they stopped making 40 K a month.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh damn you have to keep So like there's there's there's good leasing companies are bad ones.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like I have one of the good or ones So and on one night, so with that money that you put down everything what was a monthly payment for it?
[SPEAKER_02]: 3200 I think 3200.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so right around anything or in that territory of how much it costs is like $3,000 roughly from 100 and 100 plus actually.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn, so $3,000.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a lot of money, man.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, that's a mortgage, oh, I know, well, depending on how much the house is, but yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And today's the image, like, that's pretty much- Yeah, my mortgage is $4,000.
[SPEAKER_01]: Really?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Even an idol?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: My house was $600,000.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then I did FHAs, and I did like only $20,000.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I did less than 20%.
[SPEAKER_02]: So there's like mortgage insurance and a bunch of stuff on that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I kind of shot myself on the foot by the time I needed to get a house.
[SPEAKER_01]: You did 20% down?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I didn't.
[SPEAKER_02]: I did 20k down.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'll just say we went.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I had a 20k down.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so you don't really put that much money up front.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, yeah, because it's it'd be like 20 to 1%.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, minimum.
[SPEAKER_01]: You can put it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it was like 20 30.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: damn well but you you have a probably well the reason I bought the house was because I told myself I wouldn't marry my wife until I had a place to like support her so I wanted to have a house before I married her so and I knew like after the third date I was going married this girl yeah so right after that I started looking at houses and then I found the perfect one with the shop everything and bought it and even my girl right here right
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about the house part.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about the house part though.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're still gonna be paying rent.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's dope though, that's dope.
[SPEAKER_01]: So now you mentioned earlier that you have these tires on the car and you obviously crash a limbo.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, unfortunately.
[SPEAKER_01]: But the Dodge Viper is another car that's notorious for a pair of older ones.
[SPEAKER_01]: The newer ones, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: So the newer ones are really, really good action.
[SPEAKER_02]: So like the traction control on the Viper is actually very good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, obviously, there's losing traction when you don't know you're on a loose traction, there's losing traction when you're ready for it.
[SPEAKER_02]: With the Viper, when I'm getting into it, I'm like, I'm ready for it to kick out.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I've done it with Trashroll off and Trashroll on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Trashroll off, it burns them.
[SPEAKER_02]: Trashroll on, it actually keeps you fairly straight.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's actually very, very good traction control.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, wow.
[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So Calvin mentioned in the podcast one of the podcasts he did that the reason why the people used to crash them back in the day was because those cars were older and they'd buy them and they never changed the tires.
[SPEAKER_01]: So the tires were on their dry rotted and so on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, low-mile cars.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So then when they see what buy these cars that they're sitting on the garage, the dry rotted tires, then they go out and do hits.
[SPEAKER_01]: They're doing hits on 20-year-old tires.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just like they haven't been changed.
[SPEAKER_01]: So
[SPEAKER_01]: With the Viper, obviously, the gent you said the newer ones are better, but there's still people that don't keep that in, you know, they don't take that into consideration that they should probably change your tires.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, just because there's a low-mile card, doesn't mean you have to skimp out on maintenance.
[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, I spoke to Calville at TX2K this year.
[SPEAKER_01]: I never actually spoke to him until this year.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's really cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: He's really cool, dude.
[SPEAKER_01]: I was kind of scared because his area is like roped off, but I went into the area with Titan Neuro actually walked me over and introduced me.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we were talking for a while, and the guy that actually sold you the Viper was there.
[SPEAKER_01]: Luke, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, I was asking questions about it and kind of trying to figure out how much it costs to actually own one, because obviously, you know, quiet has one as well, and he was telling me that the kits on it to style it, like the wing, the front lip, all that stuff is like $20,000 or something like that, some carero, the arrow, correct.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, do you have the arrow or are you, so mine has the, um, like the APR wing, not the ACR wing.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, okay, it's a little bit smaller of a wing, but still arrow.
[SPEAKER_01]: Is it, is it, is it the aftermarket one?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Mine has the canards in the front, the front lip, just recently put on the rear diffuser blades, um,
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say my car doesn't have that much into it for the arrow.
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say mine only has probably like 5k in arrow.
[SPEAKER_02]: Really 5k?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the front lip was, I didn't put those on, but the front lip was like a $1,000 front lip.
[SPEAKER_02]: The wing was like 3,500, and then the rear diffuser pieces and the canards are probably another thousand.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what are the goals for the Viper?
[SPEAKER_01]: Because that's one of my gen cars, honestly.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd probably take a Viper over, I'd take a Viper over and already done a day.
[SPEAKER_02]: the Viper like mocks almost any car row like it's crazy like how many people love that thing i didn't think it i've always loved that car but i didn't know that like other people loved it like 30 times more than i did like it's crazy like that car monetary car week like
[SPEAKER_02]: There'd be a Bugatti, and Lafrari, and then the Viper, and everybody would like ignore those cars and all of them to the Viper.
[SPEAKER_01]: It was insane.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's an attention-seeker.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it was insane.
[SPEAKER_02]: So my plans with that car is the twin-turboat.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Calbo?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, most likely.
[SPEAKER_02]: I got quoted 150.
[SPEAKER_02]: Is it terrible with it?
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the thing, a lot of people don't realize how expensive it is.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I was talking to Calvab.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, dip them.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, it's not true.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not a turbo kit.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not a turbo kit in some piping.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's legit.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're building a new car.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what it is.
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you buy one for what are they going for now?
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, 170.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's the best thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's that's where I learned like the trick.
[SPEAKER_02]: So,
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're playing a buying a Viper to Twin Turbo, don't get a low mile one and spend 140 G's.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because there's no point.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because everybody gets one, and they instantly want to make 1,300, 1,500.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's honestly like the lowest package that majority of these companies like offer.
[SPEAKER_02]: So,
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't do that because you're spending 140k now because most likely you're going to end up building the motor You're going to end up doing all this stuff pulling the motor doing the rod bearing doing all this stuff Just buy a viper with miles so I bought probably I think it's the highest mileage viper for the gentfives in the like the world So my house yeah, miles 75,000 miles
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn, that's not even a lot of miles though.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, but for Vipers, that's a ton.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, and the thing is is like, Calville won't even twin Toro that car because like of the motor.
[SPEAKER_02]: And, but I was like, in my mind, the build that we would have to do that motor is what anybody else would do to a car that has 20,000 miles and they spend 140k on.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I spent 90.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got that car on night.
[SPEAKER_02]: I got that car for 90k.
[SPEAKER_01]: Was he selling it on a marketplace already?
[SPEAKER_02]: So he threw it out in the forums and for 90K.
[SPEAKER_01]: And nobody offered, nobody like, like, said, y'all, I'm a buy this like.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, someone did, but the car had some issues.
[SPEAKER_02]: The car was misfiring and the car needed a new clutch.
[SPEAKER_02]: The new clutch was 4,500 bucks.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the misfire was a hit or miss.
[SPEAKER_02]: It could be the coil packs, but it could be like a silver, like a rod bearings, if I'd go in out, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: So like, there was always a risk.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they didn't know that and they were going to take it for 90, but I'm sure if he told them there was the issues too, they wouldn't have took it for 90.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I was like, I'm going to take the risk, you're my friends, and I think the car should stay in the group.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I bought it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so how much are you into that car now total probably 95 95 and is there any of your future mods that you're gonna keep you know Yeah, so coil overs.
[SPEAKER_02]: I bought those for 4k.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, it's not bad.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, they're not bad They're worth like 10 10 the 12.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll see.
[SPEAKER_02]: I did use there.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, they're brand new but he never put them on okay So I bought them off of them so the previous owner
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I think no, I paid three.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think I think I paid three K for him.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got good deal, but I had to put a lot of money into the car So he kind of justified giving me a good deal on the coil over.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so so I guess 98k Future plans throw the coil over zone wheels
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, and like ppf, tint, all that stuff, basically make it perfect aesthetically.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then next year to interpret it, because 150k is, several cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's going to be like on the vision board as like it's own thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: My goal next year is to buy less cars, but do more stuff to the current cars.
[SPEAKER_01]: Got you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's a Viper kind of went out the window like when I started talking to Calbo and I was like this is on my background for my computer And I went there like yeah, I'm gonna see how much these cars really are and when we started telling me stuff I'm like Damn bro, it's kind of like not even it's worth it, but it's it's almost it's almost better to buy one that's already finished Yeah, but then how you can spend two fifty on it like yep, exactly
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's who 50 you get and it's like the category of like and good luck in a loan for a car like it's a praise it's a praise for one 50 and they want to 50 right now the put 100 exactly let's you do like a Nah for that kind of money.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't even know what you can do because mods don't Mods on those cars at like the twin turbo kits add value.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but to a bank mods don't add value so they wouldn't they look at that Viper and say it's worth 130 and you're like but it has twin turbo
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so the goals for the future are to get the turbo kit right from Calva.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Calva or Enzmodo.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So in order to achieve some of these goals, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I don't know if this true, but giveaways are a big factor of how much you're making.
[SPEAKER_01]: now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what made you get into giveaways?
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know right now this some controversy around every hard influencer doing giveaways, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: So did you feel like, you know, you were going to jump on the bandwagon or did you have a different vision for it?
[SPEAKER_02]: So I've always had like, um, kind of like this vision of don't sell out, you know, so I never do
[SPEAKER_02]: like gambling promos, okay, I'm not gonna say anything as the companies because that's technically a promo, so I'm not gonna do that, but so I never do that kind of stuff and Remi actually introduced me to the giveaway stuff, okay, so I always thought that Remi was kind of a sell-off for it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like Remi like why are you giving away your car and he's like And then explained it to me, okay, so there's I care about my personal brand a lot like my merch and everything I don't want to do like really cheap like
[SPEAKER_02]: paper thin T-shirts all that kind of stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to have nice merch on my website and I've always cared about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: So and Remi does too.
[SPEAKER_02]: So Remi was like, look, it gets the brand out there.
[SPEAKER_02]: People are going to buy the shirt whether you give away a car or you don't, because they're your fans.
[SPEAKER_02]: They love, they love, they love you, they love what you're doing, they want support.
[SPEAKER_02]: He's like, I don't raise my prices, because a lot of these companies don't sell a hoodie for a hundred bucks.
[SPEAKER_02]: you know 120 bucks because they're giving away a car right you know but that hoodie realistically if they weren't given away a car they'd sell it for eighty right right so remedies like i don't raise my prices whether it's a giveaway or not he's like i always stay true to my brand i always get good stuff and at the end of the day it's great content and someone is blessed with a car that they probably couldn't have justified
[SPEAKER_02]: Otherwise, you know, so it's basically like icing on the cake if it happens or not for the person that gets the merch, right and when he explains me like that I was like that's that makes more sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, you're you're not you're not trying to be evil and just like Force people to get that's the other thing too is we don't he doesn't force people he literally just hey, I'm getting away this car
[SPEAKER_02]: If you were going to get the merch, you could get a car too.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you don't want to get the merch, I'm not putting a gun in your head and making you try to get it.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know?
[SPEAKER_02]: So you're getting two-for-one kind of deal.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: Your final merch is supporting, and then you'll also get a chance to win a car.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like the McDonald's monopoly thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: No.
[SPEAKER_01]: Like he's sort of kind of like yeah, I get you yeah, you're buying a food you want and you get a chance to win Whatever, kind of money.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's the that was the kind of the concept and also he said Bro, we have a huge following now.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like that's not a bad thing and it's we're blessed with it But at the same time Good luck selling a car a market place and then actually be serious about the car and not just want you to relax Well, like when I was selling out yes for I had like a fraction of what I have now and everybody was like
[SPEAKER_02]: Love all me or they'd messaged me to mess with me or they'd messaged me like hey, I'm interested in the car I'm like okay cool like what do you want like you want look at the car and then they look at the car and be like oh I just want to meet you bro
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, so it's like it's way easier to let go of a car this way true.
[SPEAKER_02]: Then deal with the hassle of trying to sell it correct.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's that's actually fair.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's probably the best way that a car influencer could kind of explain it because if not everybody sees it is like you're just doing what everyone else is doing everyone just selling stuff just try to give way cars and a lot of people don't even believe that people win the cars, but I mean
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's the thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that was one thing that Remy and I talked about.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's funny that people are like, oh, we probably gave it to a friend, you know?
[SPEAKER_02]: Because they're expecting someone to be somewhat known the way in the car.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but now if they're known to have a following, that looks sketchy too.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not it.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, it's like, they're going, it's going, they're going the real people.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's why you don't know who they are.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the people that are the
[SPEAKER_02]: If I if I rigged it like and I gave it to a friend, where's the benefit in that for me?
[SPEAKER_02]: There's none, you know?
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess I guess maybe that He could probably he could still sell it all right, but he wouldn't get me the money for it You know, it makes no sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, like and also like our brands are so big like are we really gonna Jeopardy.
[SPEAKER_01]: I believe I ability to really jeopardize not over a $4,000 car.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that makes no You got too many eyes on you to at that point to even try to do that
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's super fun to give a car to a stranger.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know.
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't done it yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: In the future, I definitely would want to.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's one of the best feelings.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's one of the best feelings.
[SPEAKER_02]: My last winner, he bought it.

[SPEAKER_01]: Damn, I'm not the star answer in those things.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and that crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: I've entered a few giveaways Haven't had any luck.
[SPEAKER_01]: I only answer if it's a car.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, nah, I really really want that But honestly like, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_01]: I got it.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's got a come across my feet and be like, all right This is a car I want.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's usually like GTRs like R34's
[SPEAKER_01]: yeah something that you like yeah maybe it's never really marked for supers but if it's like really clean you know i'll do that but there's so many giveaways now that you know you have the option of it's almost like shopping for a car yeah literally yeah we spend you know five bucks and ten bucks whatever you get a chance to win a car it's pretty cool yeah pretty cool concept um but people just get kind of they're seeing it a lot so i just see social media people and there's some people that and there's there's
[SPEAKER_02]: Is it's not not everybody is coming out the same way.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Remi me, Devon C boys like all these people go at it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, there's legit companies that their whole thing is just to give us the giveaway.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the way they do their ads.
[SPEAKER_02]: I understand it does leave a little bit of sourtation around a little bit, but at the end of the day.
[SPEAKER_02]: Sally is just how the world is.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so we're here for a beamer invasion.
[SPEAKER_01]: I forgot to mention that before Cori, he shot the Cori the guys over at beamer invasion for allowing us to be here and do this and Hosting you know the place for us to be able to film What were your thoughts on beamer invasion?
[SPEAKER_02]: It was awesome.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was hectic my wife and I were holding down the fort at the booth
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't really, unfortunately, I didn't really get the go-round and look at a lot of the stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's okay because I got to show off this car at the booth and I got to meet everybody I watched the videos.
[SPEAKER_02]: We had a line so far for like, I don't know, seven, eight hours.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was crazy.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And like so many pictures, so many people grab in the merch and like rock in it and it was cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: I, uh, I had to sneak in a couple of times to get your attention.
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel bad because like if you're about to take a photo with somebody, I'll like jump in there and I'm like, you know, man, can we set up the podcast, whatever?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but I saw how hectic it was at your booth.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's great.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's great.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's a really cool feeling.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, there's, there's levels to like,
[SPEAKER_02]: like content and like where you are in life with it in the timeline wise.
[SPEAKER_02]: And right now, it's I need to get my content before the show starts.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because during the show, I have to get my time.
[SPEAKER_02]: I have to get my time there.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I'll watch the videos.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because I want to meet them.
[SPEAKER_02]: They want to meet me.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's why I'm here.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you just got a F-F-12 Ferrari, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: You kind of, at this point, it almost feels like you kind of have to have a supercar in your fleet because you had a Lambo.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't know if a Viper's considered a supercar.
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's a supercar, but a Ferrari is technically an exotic, I would say, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, the Ferrari, and then I also got the 600 LT. OK.
[SPEAKER_01]: So you got the F-12.
[SPEAKER_01]: Why did you go with the F-12 over A-12?
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I think there's a lot of value in the F12s.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the F12s have bought them out and they're only going up now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, because Ferrari is not making an NAB 12 anymore.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think that was a, that was a big thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I think the F12 looks better than the A12.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, what about it exactly you feel it is is the aggressive front hood.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the aggressive hood has like a GTS style hood kind of like the F80 Yeah, yeah, um, it has that vents has just that iconic like front engine V12 for our yeah, it looks really freaking good Don't think I think the A12 has a beat on as the rear end.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the rear end on the A12 is a lot more modern But it's I like the F12's rear a lot because it has a F1 rain light bottom
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, kind of like the lot for ours.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so price wise, what are those going for and what can you pick them up for compared to like a So at the time I got mine for 256, that's 2.56.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, damn.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but now they're I know it was out there.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're climbing though like okay I think now they're going for 27280 like with my miles and my spec
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's it's pretty crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're just they're just going up 812's when I looked they were anywhere from low 300s to 400s.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so why so what made you in that price range right?
[SPEAKER_01]: What made you want to go with it and aside from the design like did you feel like you would have had any benefits to going with 812 over the F12?
[SPEAKER_02]: I was more mass produced in the F12, they made more A12s in F12s, so in my mind as well, I felt like if I was going to lose money on either car, it would have been A12 not the F12.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I will loss more money on the A12 at the time than the F12, because I felt like even over, even if you kept the car for a couple of years, that's a thing though is the build plan that I have for the F12, I don't know how long I'll keep it or not.
[SPEAKER_01]: You know.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So what is the plan for?
[SPEAKER_02]: So I already did a straight pipe.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: I got lowering springs for it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I got all the carbon bits coming for it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I really want to get the carbon bucket seats for it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Carbon bucket seats.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they came factory.
[SPEAKER_02]: They have the Daytona seats.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're like more of the comfort design.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then they have the bucket seats.
[SPEAKER_02]: They're a little more race oriented.
[SPEAKER_02]: You see them a lot in the two nine sixes.
[SPEAKER_02]: But that's what I really
[SPEAKER_02]: but it's really hard to find a set OEM ones.
[SPEAKER_01]: Does Nova Tech make parts for that car too?
[SPEAKER_02]: So Nova Tech has the crazy and largo kit, obviously.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the one that like, everybody loves.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the sad part is the end largo is a limited run body kit that they make.
[SPEAKER_02]: So for the F12, I believe that only made 10.
[SPEAKER_02]: And for the A12, I think they made 15 to 20.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So if you're going to get an end largo kit, it's going to be a replica.
[SPEAKER_02]: It won't be that real one.
[SPEAKER_01]: Real one, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I got Nova Tech Springs, but not a lot of those kids go for.
[SPEAKER_02]: back in the day I I could not tell you but I know that now if you if there was a Nova tech like and Largo F12 for sale it would probably be probably in the mid threes to that 400 that though mid threes to 400 yeah yeah that's still not bad but but like we were talking about earlier no bank is gonna add values to that.
[SPEAKER_01]: true, just because it's, yeah, correct, that's a body kit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Correct.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, do they make an exhaust and overtake exhaust for your car?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, they do.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the same thing or no.
[SPEAKER_01]: A great part's interchange between the F12.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, got 12, the F12?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, Grail has an A12 super fast.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's what got me in love with the Ferrari F12, Ferrari V12.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: And their A12 super fast was amazing, drove it in the Alps.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was awesome.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So he made the kit for my F12, the exhaust, and a lot of it is very similar.
[SPEAKER_02]: The downpipes are very similar.
[SPEAKER_02]: I wouldn't say they're perfect.
[SPEAKER_02]: Identical, but they're very fricking close.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and in sound it's like pretty much the same thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, it's not.
[SPEAKER_02]: The F12 has a little bit more smoother and deeper of a pitch.
[SPEAKER_02]: The A12 screams a little bit more.
[SPEAKER_01]: is it because of the exhaust design?
[SPEAKER_02]: So the A12 and the A12 actually have differ displacements.
[SPEAKER_02]: So the A12 is a 6.5 liter V12.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: The F12 is a 6.3 liter V12.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's a little bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think there's something they did with either the pistons, rods, the head, because it's still the same base motor.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just they did certain things to it to make it higher displacement.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So do you think which one sounds more refined though?
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say the F12.
[SPEAKER_02]: The F12 is like scary and like screams.
[SPEAKER_02]: The F12 is like pure, you know, I don't know how to describe it.
[SPEAKER_01]: Which one does the E have?
[SPEAKER_01]: They have an F12.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that's, yeah, that's still, that's a pretty sick car then.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's an amazing car.
[SPEAKER_02]: Everybody thinks it's an F12 too.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the other reason why I got on like, like, and everybody thinks my Viper's an ACR.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, there's a point where like, true.
[SPEAKER_02]: when you get a certain car like it nobody really cares if it's this trim level or this trim level.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's still sick.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's the other way.
[SPEAKER_01]: Especially with the Viper like if you have a GTS or if you have like an ACR like SRT GT, it doesn't matter.
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't really matter.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's still a Viper at the end of the day.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's still pretty much the components of drivetrain and so on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also with content, sadly I can't afford to buy every single car at the highest trim level possible, or else I would only have two cars instead of 15.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I do have to pick and choose my battles and be like, all right, this makes the most sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is also equally going to be as enjoyable as this.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Now are you modding that card based off of like,
[SPEAKER_01]: because Ferrari has this thing where you can't do certain things with their cars.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's all fake.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So for our, they obviously will not take my car into the dealership to do a service on.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's catalyst downpipe.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, exhaust and lowered, you know, and they didn't do the work on the car.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they aren't going to do that just for liability reasons.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: You won't get sued for that.
[SPEAKER_02]: What you'll get's not necessarily sued for, but season says, hey, stop it or else we will go after you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: When someone calls a car something it calls an F12 something isn't like if I created a different name for it and changed out the badges and did a bunch of stuff and tried defacing like the Ferrari logo anyway that hurts their brand so they need to come after you okay you know they like hey stop this you're like you're making our brand something it isn't about okay right but you can still modify them that doesn't hurt anything so what about like the outside can you wrap them certain colors and do crazy things with them or
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So as long as you're not messing with the logos, yeah, yeah, or like having like some, I feel like there's probably like some certain things you don't want to say on the wrath, like I don't know there's probably like some that like they probably wouldn't like you know, but still I don't think for our I would necessarily send you a cease and the sists were trying to make it look like the 296 race car or whatever it is.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, right a lot of celebrities really it's there's like this clip I've saw where they like list of this Lebanese I got in suit.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll see some assists from Ferrari and I think Justin Bieber was on there I don't know what he had done to his car.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think I think I don't think he might have I'm pretty sure he just had a wide body hit and wrapped it
[SPEAKER_02]: Blue.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's right here.
[SPEAKER_02]: The white.
[SPEAKER_02]: Was it a, yeah.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it was a Liberty Walk kit or our GD3 kit.
[SPEAKER_01]: Correct.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: But still, I don't think I don't know the details on that one, but I know the details on the DJ Dad Mouse.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he called this car a purrary and he changed all the logos to be like some sort of like Like girly horse thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was weird.
[SPEAKER_02]: So that that is when they were like hey, that's and that was also older for Ari that was like 10 years ago 12 years ago now with more and like more on the streets and more being sold private party They have less control over the brand so there are
[SPEAKER_02]: They can't really nitpick too hard.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a little bit different.
[SPEAKER_01]: Different time and age for sure.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so how much do you plan on spending on this car?
[SPEAKER_02]: Roughly, you know like you have a budget.
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a vision and the budget is
[SPEAKER_02]: Workable, you know, because like there's no budget.
[SPEAKER_02]: There is no budget blank check.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just time Okay, so like obviously like the Viper for example, I'm not gonna drop 150k right now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right, you know That's the one thing with doing content social media stuff on paper.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't make much
[SPEAKER_02]: Because when you have your own business, you have the dance around zero a lot.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, you have the spend money on the business, like, and that's the other thing like that bad person about the giveaway stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, like, I'm not spending the money on like super luxurious stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're like buying like, yeah, this is crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Designers and all this stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: I wear, I've worn these clothes for like, twice this weekend.
[SPEAKER_02]: Car guy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I get it, bro.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's almost back to the cars to bring content to people that
[SPEAKER_02]: Honestly, uh, participate in the giveaway.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So everything that I do is I spend money a lot on the business.
[SPEAKER_02]: So with that, when there is a crazy build, I want to do those 150 K like the vibe.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're ready to go at the push it, at the push it aside and wait until that money's ready.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then I can do that because I want the business to also stay a float and not go bankrupt.
[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the thing that, like, you kind of probably got from early on too.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if you got the business mindset from your, you know, early years of the working out of the server or anything like that.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, it was early.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just learned along the way.
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you do content, do you recommend getting an LLC?
[SPEAKER_01]: Or you just do everything personal.
[SPEAKER_02]: Do content?
[SPEAKER_02]: Once you start making money, make an LLC.
[SPEAKER_02]: That way you can leverage and kind of, you know, yeah, there's no, there's no point if you're not making money.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, like, I, for the first year, I only made like 30 k, 20 k. I just did, uh, I was like a, a private contractor or like, I forget what the term was.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I was the 10, 99s.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and then the next year, and then the next year I did LLC.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: So there's there's definitely levels.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's I think it's based off of how much money you're making.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: But also if you have an LLC.
[SPEAKER_02]: It is nice to write off what you're doing for your business if it is making zero.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: And you can write that off towards I think you can take a loss.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think that helps you for like the money you are making from like your other.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: I believe.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I guess yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: It probably be smart to know.
[SPEAKER_02]: And also like.
[SPEAKER_02]: It does eliminate a lot more liability on you, more of the business, right?
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: So if you're doing something for the business, they come after the LLC and I you.
[SPEAKER_01]: Correct.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's separate from your personal.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So I eat $1,000 you made that big in the beginning.
[SPEAKER_02]: That was $10,99.
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: So, but because you already kind of making money, even if there wasn't a hundred thousand dollars a year, whatever, obviously you want to make sure that you can kind of maximize and capitalize on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, because even as a private contractor, you still write off stuff.
[SPEAKER_02]: true 100% so i do want to say i appreciate your time and i know it was kind of a hectic you know time last night trying to figure out schedules and coordinate i want to make it where this is like been one of my dreams to be on this podcast come on man i'm being honest don't you got it back when i had like 200,000 followers i would see your podcast clips and i'd be like one day i'm going to be on that thing and then it was today so yeah i'm flattered yeah
